  text: In development, lineage segregation is coordinated in time and space. An important
    example is the mammalian inner cell mass, in which the primitive endoderm (PrE,
    founder of the yolk sac) physically segregates from the epiblast (EPI, founder
    of the fetus). While the molecular requirements have been well studied, the physical
    mechanisms determining spatial segregation between EPI and PrE remain elusive.
    Here, we investigate the mechanical basis of EPI and PrE sorting. We find that
    rather than the differences in static cell surface mechanical parameters as in
    classical sorting models, it is the differences in surface fluctuations that robustly
    ensure physical lineage sorting. These differential surface fluctuations systematically
    correlate with differential cellular fluidity, which we propose together constitute
    a non-equilibrium sorting mechanism for EPI and PrE lineages. By combining experiments
    and modeling, we identify cell surface dynamics as a key factor orchestrating
    the correct spatial segregation of the founder embryonic lineages.

  text: In dense biological tissues, cell types performing different roles remain
    segregated by maintaining sharp interfaces. To better understand the mechanisms
    for such sharp compartmentalization, we study the effect of an imposed heterotypic
    tension at the interface between two distinct cell types in a fully 3D Voronoi
    model for confluent tissues. We find that cells rapidly sort and self-organize
    to generate a tissue-scale interface between cell types, and cells adjacent to
    this interface exhibit signature geometric features including nematic-like ordering,
    bimodal facet areas, and registration, or alignment, of cell centers on either
    side of the two-tissue interface. The magnitude of these features scales directly
    with the magnitude of the imposed tension, suggesting that biologists can estimate
    the magnitude of tissue surface tension between two tissue types simply by segmenting
    a 3D tissue. To uncover the underlying physical mechanisms driving these geometric
    features, we develop two minimal, ordered models using two different underlying
    lattices that identify an energetic competition between bulk cell shapes and tissue
    interface area. When the interface area dominates, changes to neighbor topology
    are costly and occur less frequently, which generates the observed geometric features.
