Mechanical forces drive ordered patterning of hair cells in the mammalian inner ear

The periodic organization of cells is typically associated with mechanisms based on intercellular signaling such as lateral inhibition and Turing patterning. Here the authors show that hair cells in the inner ear rearrange gradually into a checkerboard-like pattern through a tissue-wide shear motion...

description The periodic organization of cells is typically associated with mechanisms based on intercellular signaling such as lateral inhibition and Turing patterning. Here the authors show that hair cells in the inner ear rearrange gradually into a checkerboard-like pattern through a tissue-wide shear motion that coordinates intercalation and delamination events.
