[HTML][HTML] Pattern formation mechanisms of self-organizing reaction-diffusion systems

AN Landge, BM Jordan, X Diego, P Müller - Developmental biology, 2020 - Elsevier
Embryonic development is a largely self-organizing process, in which the adult body plan
arises from a ball of cells with initially nearly equal potency. The reaction-diffusion theory first …

Self-organization in pattern formation

F Schweisguth, F Corson - Developmental cell, 2019 - cell.com
Self-organization is pervasive in development, from symmetry breaking in the early embryo
to tissue patterning and morphogenesis. For a few model systems, the underlying molecular …

Anteroposterior polarity and elongation in the absence of extra-embryonic tissues and of spatially localised signalling in gastruloids: mammalian embryonic organoids

DA Turner, M Girgin, L Alonso-Crisostomo… - …, 2017 - journals.biologists.com
