Epithelial disruption drives mesendoderm differentiation in human pluripotent stem cells by enabling TGF-β protein sensing
Fate specification in the mammalian epiblast rely on complex interactions between morphogens and tissue organization. Here, the authors highlight epithelial integrity as a key determinant of TGF-β activity and a mechanism guiding morphogen sensing and spatial cell fate change.
