Outline of Final Research Achievements

We studied the mechanical basis of epithelial movement and its interaction with extracellular environment. Our main research focus is the tracheal system in the Drosophila embryo, a network of tubular epithelium used as a respiratory organ. Epithelium is stabilized by cell-cell adhesion and cell-matrix adhesion. Breaking this stability is essential for initiating morphogenetic movement. We found that prospective tracheal primordium is under negative tension (pressurized). Anisotropic redistribution of tissue tension and timely mitosis initiates local mechanical instability that leads to tissue invagination movement. We also studied the tube lumen size control and found that extracellular matrix in the luminal space coordinates random movement of individual tubule cells to form coherent tissue architecture.
