... through collective migration of caudal visceral mesoderm (CVM) cells, but how gene expression changes as cells migrate is not well understood. Here, we have focused on ten genes expressed in the CVM and the cis-regulatory sequences controlling their expression. Although some genes are continuously...

...Frank Macabenta; Angelike Stathopoulos ABSTRACT In Drosophila embryos, caudal visceral mesoderm (CVM) cells undergo bilateral migration along the trunk visceral mesoderm (TVM) in order to form midgut muscles. Mutation of FGF receptor Heartless (Htl) has been shown to cause CVM migration defects...

...Vincent Stepanik; Leslie Dunipace; Young-Kyung Bae; Frank Macabenta; Jingjing Sun; Nathanie Trisnadi; Angelike Stathopoulos Caudal visceral mesoderm (CVM) cells migrate from posterior to anterior of the Drosophila embryo as two bilateral streams of cells to support the specification of longitudinal...

...Snehalata Kadam; Srimoyee Ghosh; Angelike Stathopoulos Caudal visceral mesoderm (CVM) cells migrate synchronously towards the anterior of the Drosophila embryo as two distinct groups located on each side of the body, in order to specify longitudinal muscles that ensheath the gut. Little is known...
