Gene regulatory networks controlling an epithelial-mesenchymal transition
… in the sea urchin embryo, micromere-derived primary mesenchyme cells (PMCs) undergo an EMT process to ingress into the blastocoel, and these cells later become the larval skeleton. Much has been learned about PMC specification in sea urchin embryos. However, much less is known about how …

Investigation of the roles of ion channels in the development of the sea urchin embryo
… larvae. The larval skeleton is secreted by the primary mesenchyme cells (PMCs), which migrate within the blastocoel into a stereotypical pattern. We show that VGSC activity is required for normal PMC migration and skeletal patterning. Timed inhibitor studies identified VGSC activity as …
