... migration and later dorsal formation. These FC movements provide valuable insights into collective cell migration. However, little is known about centripetal migration, which encloses the oocyte after secretion has begun. Centripetal migration begins with apical extension of a few FCs that move away from...

... was sufficient to induce collective cell migration and ductal elongation. Our data suggest a model for ductal elongation in which RTK-dependent proliferation creates motile cells with high pERK, the collective migration of which acutely requires both MEK and Rac1 signaling. * Author for correspondence...

.... Collective cell migration or group cell movement plays an important role during diverse processes including development, morphogenesis, wound healing and tumor cell metastases ( Christiansen and Rajasekaran, 2006 ; Friedl et al., 1995 ; Lecaudey and Gilmour, 2006 ; Vaughan and Trinkaus, 1966 ; Weijer...

... and extension. Both collective cell migration and cell intercalation are thought to drive CE and are used to different degrees in various species as they elongate their body axis. Here, we provide an overview of CE as a general strategy for body axis elongation and discuss conserved and divergent mechanisms...
