  text: Non-canonical Wnt signaling plays a central role for coordinated cell polarization
    and directed migration in metazoan development. While spatiotemporally restricted
    activation of non-canonical Wnt-signaling drives cell polarization in epithelial
    tissues, it remains unclear whether such instructive activity is also critical
    for directed mesenchymal cell migration. Here, we developed a light-activated
    version of the non-canonical Wnt receptor Frizzled 7 (Fz7) to analyze how restricted
    activation of non-canonical Wnt signaling affects directed anterior axial mesendoderm
    (prechordal plate, ppl) cell migration within the zebrafish gastrula. We found
    that Fz7 signaling is required for ppl cell protrusion formation and migration
    and that spatiotemporally restricted ectopic activation is capable of redirecting
    their migration. Finally, we show that uniform activation of Fz7 signaling in
    ppl cells fully rescues defective directed cell migration in fz7 mutant embryos.
    Together, our findings reveal that in contrast to the situation in epithelial
    cells, non-canonical Wnt signaling functions permissively rather than instructively
    in directed mesenchymal cell migration during gastrulation.

  text: The Wnt/planar cell polarity (Wnt/PCP) pathway determines planar polarity
    of epithelial cells in both vertebrates and invertebrates. The role that Wnt/PCP
    signaling plays in mesenchymal contexts, however, is only poorly understood. While
    previous studies have demonstrated the capacity of Wnt/PCP signaling to polarize
    and guide directed migration of mesenchymal cells, it remains unclear whether
    endogenous Wnt/PCP signaling performs these functions instructively, as it does
    in epithelial cells. Here we developed a light-switchable version of the Wnt/PCP
    receptor Frizzled 7 (Fz7) to unambiguously distinguish between an instructive
    and a permissive role of Wnt/PCP signaling for the directional collective migration
    of mesendoderm progenitor cells during zebrafish gastrulation. We show that prechordal
    plate (ppl) cell migration is defective in maternal-zygotic fz7a and fz7b (MZ
    fz7a,b) double mutant embryos, and that Fz7 functions cell-autonomously in this
    process by promoting ppl cell protrusion formation and directed migration. We
    further show that local activation of Fz7 can direct ppl cell migration both in
    vitro and in vivo. Surprisingly, however, uniform Fz7 activation is sufficient
    to fully rescue the ppl cell migration defect in MZ fz7a,b mutant embryos, indicating
    that Wnt/PCP signaling functions permissively rather than instructively in directed
    mesendoderm cell migration during zebrafish gastrulation.

  text: The segregation of different cell types into distinct tissues is a fundamental
    process in metazoan development. Differences in cell adhesion and cortex tension
    are commonly thought to drive cell sorting by regulating tissue surface tension
    (TST). However, the role that differential TST plays in cell segregation within
    the developing embryo is as yet unclear. Here, we have analyzed the role of differential
    TST for germ layer progenitor cell segregation during zebrafish gastrulation.
    Contrary to previous observations that differential TST drives germ layer progenitor
    cell segregation in vitro, we show that germ layers display indistinguishable
    TST within the gastrulating embryo, arguing against differential TST driving germ
    layer progenitor cell segregation in vivo. We further show that the osmolarity
    of the interstitial fluid (IF) is an important factor that influences germ layer
    TST in vivo, and that lower osmolarity of the IF compared with standard cell culture
    medium can explain why germ layers display differential TST in culture but not
    in vivo. Finally, we show that directed migration of mesendoderm progenitors is
    required for germ layer progenitor cell segregation and germ layer formation.

  text: During embryonic development, mechanical forces are essential for cellular
    rearrangements driving tissue morphogenesis. Here, we show that in the early zebrafish
    embryo, friction forces are generated at the interface between anterior axial
    mesoderm (prechordal plate, ppl) progenitors migrating towards the animal pole
    and neurectoderm progenitors moving in the opposite direction towards the vegetal
    pole of the embryo. These friction forces lead to global rearrangement of cells
    within the neurectoderm and determine the position of the neural anlage. Using
    a combination of experiments and simulations, we show that this process depends
    on hydrodynamic coupling between neurectoderm and ppl as a result of E-cadherin-mediated
    adhesion between those tissues. Our data thus establish the emergence of friction
    forces at the interface between moving tissues as a critical force-generating
    process shaping the embryo.

  text: During metazoan development, the temporal pattern of morphogen signaling is
    critical for organizing cell fates in space and time. Yet, tools for temporally
    controlling morphogen signaling within the embryo are still scarce. Here, we developed
    a photoactivatable Nodal receptor to determine how the temporal pattern of Nodal
    signaling affects cell fate specification during zebrafish gastrulation. By using
    this receptor to manipulate the duration of Nodal signaling in vivo by light,
    we show that extended Nodal signaling within the organizer promotes prechordal
    plate specification and suppresses endoderm differentiation. Endoderm differentiation
    is suppressed by extended Nodal signaling inducing expression of the transcriptional
    repressor goosecoid (gsc) in prechordal plate progenitors, which in turn restrains
    Nodal signaling from upregulating the endoderm differentiation gene sox17 within
    these cells. Thus, optogenetic manipulation of Nodal signaling identifies a critical
    role of Nodal signaling duration for organizer cell fate specification during
    gastrulation.

  text: 'Avian forelimb digit homology remains one of the standard themes in comparative
    biology and EvoDevo research. In order to resolve the apparent contradictions
    between embryological and paleontological evidence a variety of hypotheses have
    been presented in recent years. The proposals range from excluding birds from
    the dinosaur clade, to assignments of homology by different criteria, or even
    assuming a hexadactyl tetrapod limb ground state. At present two approaches prevail:
    the frame shift hypothesis and the pyramid reduction hypothesis. While the former
    postulates a homeotic shift of digit identities, the latter argues for a gradual
    bilateral reduction of phalanges and digits. Here we present a new model that
    integrates elements from both hypotheses with the existing experimental and fossil
    evidence. We start from the main feature common to both earlier concepts, the
    initiating ontogenetic event: reduction and loss of the anterior-most digit. It
    is proposed that a concerted mechanism of molecular regulation and developmental
    mechanics is capable of shifting the boundaries of hoxD expression in embryonic
    forelimb buds as well as changing the digit phenotypes. Based on a distinction
    between positional (topological) and compositional (phenotypic) homology criteria,
    we argue that the identity of the avian digits is II, III, IV, despite a partially
    altered phenotype. Finally, we introduce an alternative digit reduction scheme
    that reconciles the current fossil evidence with the presented molecular-morphogenetic
    model. Our approach identifies specific experiments that allow to test whether
    gene expression can be shifted and digit phenotypes can be altered by induced
    digit loss or digit gain.'
