Great to see our conclusions align with the beautiful work from @marija-matejcic.bsky.social in the Trepat lab 3D force mapping, Ca²⁺-triggered myosin-IIA meshwork dissolution, and neighbour lamellipodia generating traction. Great synergy, highlighting the role of tension in extrusion regulation.

Thanks for highlighting this! My background in fly morphogenesis shaped how I think about tissue forces, their interplay with signaling, and experimental design. An experience I’d wholeheartedly recommend — Drosophila remains a rich source of inspiration, continuing to reveal fundamental concepts.

I may have a biased interpretation here, but I suspect the background of @danielkrueger.bsky.social in fly morphogenesis brought a lot here (congrat for the impressive work !) , a good example of virtuous background mixing and work built on important conceptual/technical premise from model organism

1/11 In @science.org: A new perspective on how our intestines renew. Cells are not “pushed out” by crowding or die from apoptosis. Instead, cells play a mechanical tug-of-war, where weaker cells extrude, reframing gut renewal as force-regulated. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

The gut constantly renews itself. Cells keep the tissue under tension, engaging in a tug-of-war. Weaker cells that can’t counter their neighbours’ pull extrude. This maintains mechanical homeostasis, ensuring stability and protecting the intestinal barrier.

"The state of German-Polish relations is a European tragedy in the same way that the Warschauer Kniefall was a moment of European reconciliation." Brilliant analysis by @JeremyCliffe and also an important read before the Polish elections this weekend. There is so much at stake.

newstatesman.comEurope’s east-west divide is wideningRelations between Germany and Poland define the continent. But, ahead of the latter’s election this weekend, they are in crisis and getting worse.

Anhören! Wie sich große branchenfremde Investoren (ALDI, Immobilien etc) riesengroße Ackerflächen 🚜 in Ostdeutschland kaufen. Am Staat vorbei, ohne Steuern zu zahlen, mit dem Segen des Bauernverbandes und zum Schaden der kleinen Landwirtschaftsbetriebe. 👇

share.deutschlandradio.deWarum Investoren immer mehr Ackerland kaufenÜberregionale Investoren kaufen immer mehr Ackerland in Sachsen-Anhalt auf, die Preise sind stark gestiegen. Seit der Energiewende gibt es noch mehr Konkurrenz.
