How is developmental speed regulated ? 🪰

Happy to share my PhD story from Schweisguth Lab @devstempasteur.bsky.social. Here we show that cellular NAD+ availability and redox constrain developmental speed in the fly eye.

A big thanks to everyone involved!

How can we investigate the mechanical state of cells within a tissue, assessing if they are under compression or tension?

@luanger.bsky.social and I highlight methods in a short 🧵 with @epimechfc.bsky.social
Tissues are dynamic and investigating cellular mechanical states can be crucial for understanding biological processes. But how to do it?

We are @andreasschoenit.bsky.social and @luanger.bsky.social from @bladoux.bsky.social / @rmmege.bsky.social lab highlighting ways to assess tissue stresses.

Thrilled to share our new manuscript on how force transmission can regulate mechanical cell competition!

Fun collaboration between the @bladoux.bsky.social / @rmmege.bsky.social and the Doostmohammadi group combining experiments and simulations.

Force transmission is a master regulator of mechanical cell competition
Cell competition is a tissue surveillance mechanism for eliminating unwanted cells and as such is indispensable in development, infection and tumorigenesis. Although different biochemical mechanisms a...

Very happy to share my first story in @levayerr.bsky.social lab, where we show that localized apoptosis drives JNK-dependent developmental delay to ensure global tissue size robustness 🪰
