DOI: 10.1016/j.devcel.2019.08.003
Abstract: Epithelial cells dynamically self-organize in response to extracellular spatial cues relayed by cell-surface receptors. During convergent extension in Drosophila, Toll-related receptors direct planar polarized cell rearrangements that elongate the head-to-tail axis. However, many cells establish… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neulet.2019.134373
Abstract: Acquisition of cell polarity generates signaling and cytoskeletal asymmetry and thus underpins polarized cell behaviors during tissue morphogenesis. In epithelial tissues, both apical basal polarity and planar polarity, which refers to cell polarization along an… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s42003-021-02998-y
Abstract: Human cone phototropism is a key mechanism underlying the Stiles-Crawford effect, a psychophysiological phenomenon according to which photoreceptor outer/inner segments are aligned along with the direction of incoming light. However, such photomechanical movements of photoreceptors… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fcell.2020.577201
Abstract: VANGL2 is a component of the planar cell polarity (PCP) pathway, which regulates tissue polarity and patterning. The Vangl2Lp mutation causes lung branching defects due to dysfunctional actomyosin-driven morphogenesis. Since the actomyosin network regulates cell… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2020.580935
Abstract: Polarity is at the core of plant development, as well as that of other multicellular organisms since polarization acts as a driving force to generate a variety of specialized cells. Therefore, unraveling how cells establish… read more here.
