Can pressure gradients persist over long timescales in animal cells? We induced intracellular pressure gradients and examined the resulting flows in single cells. We reveal surprisingly long lasting pressure gradients. More here: elifesciences.org/reviewed-pre...

Trichoplax adhaerens is one of the simplest and most enigmatic animals on earth. Its body shows incredible fluidity, changing shape within minutes. In a recent visit by Andrea Pasini we had the chance to host and observe these amazing animals live. [movie accelerated 3x; animal 0.5 to 1 mm in size]

My first post on Bluesky! Very excited to share our work just published in @science.org. We find that “Interphase cell morphology defines the mode, symmetry, and outcome of mitosis” - in angiogenesis and other tissues! www.science.org/doi/abs/10.1... www.science.org/doi/abs/10.1...

🧬 How #immune #cells protect their #centrosome under stress. To fight infection, immune cells must divide rapidly and squeeze through tight tissue spaces. @renkawitzteam.bsky.social shows that two proteins help protect the centrosome from damage during this process. 📄 www.med.lmu.de/bmc/en/news/...

Huge achievement, congrats! Everything (well many things) can fracture!

Excited to share our discovery www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... that the #centrosome is prone to breakage! Using #motile cells, we identify centrosome breakage during #pathfinding, caused by #actin #forces, & prevented by #Dyrk3 Kudos to 1st author Madeleine & thanks to all collaborators! (1/6)
