Non-autonomous insulin signaling delays mitotic progression in C. elegans germline stem and progenitor cells
by Eric Cheng, Ran Lu, Abigail R. Gerhold
Stem and progenitor cell mitosis is essential for tissue development and homeostasis. How these cells ensure proper chromosome segregation, and thereby maintain mitotic fidelity, in the complex physiological environment of a living animal is poorly understood. Here we use in situ live-cell imaging of C. elegans germline stem and progenitor cells (GSPCs) to ask how the signaling environment influences stem and progenitor cell mitosis in vivo. Through...
