    Description: Morphogenesis is the process whereby cell collectives are shaped into differentiated tissues and organs. The self-organizing nature of morphogenesis has been recently demonstrated by studies showing that stem cells in three-dimensional culture can generate complex organoids, such as mini-guts, optic-cups and even mini-brains. To achieve this, cell collectives must regulate the activity of secreted signalling molecules that control cell differentiation, presumably through the self-assembly of microenvironments or niches. However, mechanisms that allow changes in tissue architecture to feedback directly on the activity of extracellular signals have not been described. Here we investigate how the process of tissue assembly controls signalling activity during organogenesis in vivo, using the migrating zebrafish lateral line primordium. We show that fibroblast growth factor (FGF) activity within the tissue controls the frequency at which it deposits rosette-like mechanosensory organs. Live imaging reveals that FGF becomes specifically concentrated in microluminal structures that assemble at the centre of these organs and spatially constrain its signalling activity. Genetic inhibition of microlumen assembly and laser micropuncture experiments demonstrate that microlumina increase signalling responses in participating cells, thus allowing FGF to coordinate the migratory behaviour of cell groups at the tissue rear. As the formation of a central lumen is a self-organizing property of many cell types, such as epithelia and embryonic stem cells, luminal signalling provides a potentially general mechanism to locally restrict, coordinate and enhance cell communication within tissues.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Durdu, Sevi -- Iskar, Murat -- Revenu, Celine -- Schieber, Nicole -- Kunze, Andreas -- Bork, Peer -- Schwab, Yannick -- Gilmour, Darren -- England -- Nature. 2014 Nov 6;515(7525):120-4. doi: 10.1038/nature13852.

    Description: Pancreatic beta cells lower insulin release in response to nutrient depletion. The question of whether starved beta cells induce macroautophagy, a predominant mechanism maintaining energy homeostasis, remains poorly explored. We found that, in contrast to many mammalian cells, macroautophagy in pancreatic beta cells was suppressed upon starvation. Instead, starved beta cells induced lysosomal degradation of nascent secretory insulin granules, which was controlled by protein kinase D (PKD), a key player in secretory granule biogenesis. Starvation-induced nascent granule degradation triggered lysosomal recruitment and activation of mechanistic target of rapamycin that suppressed macroautophagy. Switching from macroautophagy to insulin granule degradation was important to keep insulin secretion low upon fasting. Thus, beta cells use a PKD-dependent mechanism to adapt to nutrient availability and couple autophagy flux to secretory function.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Goginashvili, Alexander -- Zhang, Zhirong -- Erbs, Eric -- Spiegelhalter, Coralie -- Kessler, Pascal -- Mihlan, Michael -- Pasquier, Adrien -- Krupina, Ksenia -- Schieber, Nicole -- Cinque, Laura -- Morvan, Joelle -- Sumara, Izabela -- Schwab, Yannick -- Settembre, Carmine -- Ricci, Romeo -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2015 Feb 20;347(6224):878-82. doi: 10.1126/science.aaa2628.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institut de Genetique et de Biologie Moleculaire et Cellulaire (IGBMC), INSERM, CNRS, Universite de Strasbourg, 67404 Illkirch, France. ; Cell Biology and Biophysics Unit, European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), 69117 Heidelberg, Germany. ; Dulbecco Telethon Institute and Telethon Institute of Genetics and Medicine (TIGEM), 80131 Naples, Italy. ; Dulbecco Telethon Institute and Telethon Institute of Genetics and Medicine (TIGEM), 80131 Naples, Italy.
