text: Accumulation of interstitial fluid (IF) between embryonic cells is a common
phenomenon in vertebrate embryogenesis. Unlike other model systems, where these
accumulations coalesce into a large central cavity – the blastocoel, in zebrafish,
IF is more uniformly distributed between the deep cells (DC) before the onset
of gastrulation. This is likely due to the presence of a large extraembryonic
structure – the yolk cell (YC) at the position where the blastocoel typically
forms in other model organisms. IF has long been speculated to play a role in
tissue morphogenesis during embryogenesis, but direct evidence supporting such
function is still sparse. Here we show that the relocalization of IF to the interface
between the YC and DC/epiblast is critical for axial mesendoderm (ME) cell protrusion
formation and migration along this interface, a key process in embryonic axis
formation. We further demonstrate that axial ME cell migration and IF relocalization
engage in a positive feedback loop, where axial ME migration triggers IF accumulation
ahead of the advancing axial ME tissue by mechanically compressing the overlying
epiblast cell layer. Upon compression, locally induced flow relocalizes the IF
through the porous epiblast tissue resulting in an IF accumulation ahead of the
leading axial ME. This IF accumulation, in turn, promotes cell protrusion formation
and migration of the leading axial ME cells, thereby facilitating axial ME extension.
Our findings reveal a central role of dynamic IF relocalization in orchestrating
germ layer morphogenesis during gastrulation.

text: Left-right asymmetries can be considered a fundamental organizational principle
of the vertebrate central nervous system. The hippocampal CA3-CA1 pyramidal cell
synaptic connection shows an input-side dependent asymmetry where the hemispheric
location of the presynaptic CA3 neuron determines the synaptic properties. Left-input
synapses terminating on apical dendrites in stratum radiatum have a higher density
of NMDA receptor subunit GluN2B, a lower density of AMPA receptor subunit GluA1
and smaller areas with less often perforated PSDs. On the other hand, left-input
synapses terminating on basal dendrites in stratum oriens have lower GluN2B densities
than right-input ones. Apical and basal synapses further employ different signaling
pathways involved in LTP. SDS-digested freeze-fracture replica labeling can visualize
synaptic membrane proteins with high sensitivity and resolution, and has been
used to reveal the asymmetry at the electron microscopic level. However, it requires
time-consuming manual demarcation of the synaptic surface for quantitative measurements.
To facilitate the analysis of replica labeling, I first developed a software named
Darea, which utilizes deep-learning to automatize this demarcation. With Darea
I characterized the synaptic distribution of NMDA and AMPA receptors as well as
the voltage-gated Ca2+ channels in CA1 stratum radiatum and oriens. Second, I
explored the role of GluN2B and its carboxy-terminus in the establishment of input-side
dependent hippocampal asymmetry. In conditional knock-out mice lacking GluN2B
expression in CA1 and GluN2B-2A swap mice, where GluN2B carboxy-terminus was exchanged
to that of GluN2A, no significant asymmetries of GluN2B, GluA1 and PSD area were
detected. We further discovered a previously unknown functional asymmetry of GluN2A,
which was also lost in the swap mouse. These results demonstrate that GluN2B carboxy-terminus
plays a critical role in normal formation of input-side dependent asymmetry.

text: "In this thesis, we consider several of the most classical and fundamental
problems in static analysis and formal verification, including invariant generation,
reachability analysis, termination analysis of probabilistic programs, data-flow
analysis, quantitative analysis of Markov chains and Markov decision processes,
and the problem of data packing in cache management.\r\nWe use techniques from
parameterized complexity theory, polyhedral geometry, and real algebraic geometry
to significantly improve the state-of-the-art, in terms of both scalability and
completeness guarantees, for the mentioned problems. In some cases, our results
are the first theoretical improvements for the respective problems in two or three
decades."

text: Bacteria-host interactions represent a continuous trade-off between benefit
and risk. Thus, the host immune response is faced with a non-trivial problem –
accommodate beneficial commensals and remove harmful pathogens. This is especially
difficult as molecular patterns, such as lipopolysaccharide or specific surface
organelles such as pili, are conserved in both, commensal and pathogenic bacteria.
Type 1 pili, tightly regulated by phase variation, are considered an important
virulence factor of pathogenic bacteria as they facilitate invasion into host
cells. While invasion represents a de facto passive mechanism for pathogens to
escape the host immune response, we demonstrate a fundamental role of type 1 pili
as active modulators of the innate and adaptive immune response.

text: 'Nitrogen is an essential macronutrient determining plant growth, development
and affecting agricultural productivity. Root, as a hub that perceives and integrates
local and systemic signals on the plant’s external and endogenous nitrogen resources,
communicates with other plant organs to consolidate their physiology and development
in accordance with actual nitrogen balance. Over the last years, numerous studies
demonstrated that these comprehensive developmental adaptations rely on the interaction
between pathways controlling nitrogen homeostasis and hormonal networks acting
globally in the plant body. However, molecular insights into how the information
about the nitrogen status is translated through hormonal pathways into specific
developmental output are lacking. In my work, I addressed so far poorly understood
mechanisms underlying root-to-shoot communication that lead to a rapid re-adjustment
of shoot growth and development after nitrate provision. Applying a combination
of molecular, cell, and developmental biology approaches, genetics and grafting
experiments as well as hormonal analytics, I identified and characterized an unknown
molecular framework orchestrating shoot development with a root nitrate sensory
system. '

text: The brain is one of the largest and most complex organs and it is composed
of billions of neurons that communicate together enabling e.g. consciousness.
The cerebral cortex is the largest site of neural integration in the central nervous
system. Concerted radial migration of newly born cortical projection neurons,
from their birthplace to their final position, is a key step in the assembly of
the cerebral cortex. The cellular and molecular mechanisms regulating radial neuronal
migration in vivo are however still unclear. Recent evidence suggests that distinct
signaling cues act cell-autonomously but differentially at certain steps during
the overall migration process. Moreover, functional analysis of genetic mosaics
(mutant neurons present in wild-type/heterozygote environment) using the MADM
(Mosaic Analysis with Double Markers) analyses in comparison to global knockout
also indicate a significant degree of non-cell-autonomous and/or community effects
in the control of cortical neuron migration. The interactions of cell-intrinsic
(cell-autonomous) and cell-extrinsic (non-cell-autonomous) components are largely
unknown. In part of this thesis work we established a MADM-based experimental
strategy for the quantitative analysis of cell-autonomous gene function versus
non-cell-autonomous and/or community effects. The direct comparison of mutant
neurons from the genetic mosaic (cell-autonomous) to mutant neurons in the conditional
and/or global knockout (cell-autonomous + non-cell-autonomous) allows to quantitatively
analyze non-cell-autonomous effects. Such analysis enable the high-resolution
analysis of projection neuron migration dynamics in distinct environments with
concomitant isolation of genomic and proteomic profiles. Using these experimental
paradigms and in combination with computational modeling we show and characterize
the nature of non-cell-autonomous effects to coordinate radial neuron migration.
Furthermore, this thesis discusses recent developments in neurodevelopment with
focus on neuronal polarization and non-cell-autonomous mechanisms in neuronal
migration.

text: "Plant motions occur across a wide spectrum of timescales, ranging from seed
dispersal through bursting (milliseconds) and stomatal opening (minutes) to long-term
adaptation of gross architecture. Relatively fast motions include water-driven
growth as exemplified by root cell expansion under abiotic/biotic stresses or
during gravitropism. A showcase is a root growth inhibition in 30 seconds triggered
by the phytohormone auxin. However, the cellular and molecular mechanisms are
still largely unknown. This thesis covers the studies about this topic as follows.
By taking advantage of microfluidics combined with live imaging, pharmaceutical
tools, and transgenic lines, we examined the kinetics of and causal relationship
among various auxininduced rapid cellular changes in root growth, apoplastic pH,
cytosolic Ca2+, cortical microtubule (CMT) orientation, and vacuolar morphology.
We revealed that CMT reorientation and vacuolar constriction are the consequence
of growth itself instead of responding directly to auxin. In contrast, auxin induces
apoplast alkalinization to rapidly inhibit root growth in 30 seconds. This auxin-triggered
apoplast alkalinization results from rapid H+- influx that is contributed by Ca2+
inward channel CYCLIC NUCLEOTIDE-GATED CHANNEL 14 (CNGC14)-dependent Ca2+ signaling.
To dissect which auxin signaling mediates the rapid apoplast alkalinization, we\r\ncombined
microfluidics and genetic engineering to verify that TIR1/AFB receptors conduct
a non-transcriptional regulation on Ca2+ and H+ -influx. This non-canonical pathway
is mostly mediated by the cytosolic portion of TIR1/AFB. On the other hand, we
uncovered, using biochemical and phospho-proteomic analysis, that auxin cell surface
signaling component TRANSMEMBRANE KINASE 1 (TMK1) plays a negative role during
auxin-trigger apoplast\r\nalkalinization and root growth inhibition through directly
activating PM H+ -ATPases. Therefore, we discovered that PM H+ -ATPases counteract
instead of mediate the auxintriggered rapid H+ -influx, and that TIR1/AFB and
TMK1 regulate root growth antagonistically. This opposite effect of TIR1/AFB and
TMK1 is consistent during auxin-induced hypocotyl elongation, leading us to explore
the relation of two signaling pathways. Assisted with biochemistry and fluorescent
imaging, we verified for the first time that TIR1/AFB and TMK1 can interact with
each other. The ability of TIR1/AFB binding to membrane lipid provides a basis
for the interaction of plasma membrane- and cytosol-localized proteins.\r\nBesides,
transgenic analysis combined with genetic engineering and biochemistry showed
that vi\r\nthey do function in the same pathway. Particularly, auxin-induced
TMK1 increase is TIR1/AFB dependent, suggesting TIR1/AFB regulation on TMK1. Conversely,
TMK1 also regulates TIR1/AFB protein levels and thus auxin canonical signaling.
To follow the study of rapid growth regulation, we analyzed another rapid growth
regulator, signaling peptide RALF1. We showed that RALF1 also triggers a rapid
and reversible growth inhibition caused by H + influx, highly resembling but not
dependent on auxin. Besides, RALF1 promotes auxin biosynthesis by increasing expression
of auxin biosynthesis enzyme YUCCAs and thus induces auxin signaling in ca. 1
hour, contributing to the sustained RALF1-triggered growth inhibition. These studies
collectively contribute to understanding rapid regulation on plant cell\r\ngrowth,
novel auxin signaling pathway as well as auxin-peptide crosstalk. "

text: "Indirect reciprocity in evolutionary game theory is a prominent mechanism
for explaining the evolution of cooperation among unrelated individuals. In contrast
to direct reciprocity, which is based on individuals meeting repeatedly, and conditionally
cooperating by using their own experiences, indirect reciprocity is based on individuals’
reputations. If a player helps another, this increases the helper’s public standing,
benefitting them in the future. This lets cooperation in the population emerge
without individuals having to meet more than once. While the two modes of reciprocity
are intertwined, they are difficult to compare. Thus, they are usually studied
in isolation. Direct reciprocity can maintain cooperation with simple strategies,
and is robust against noise even when players do not remember more\r\nthan their
partner’s last action. Meanwhile, indirect reciprocity requires its successful
strategies, or social norms, to be more complex. Exhaustive search previously
identified eight such norms, called the “leading eight”, which excel at maintaining
cooperation. However, as the first result of this thesis, we show that the leading
eight break down once we remove the fundamental assumption that information is
synchronized and public, such that everyone agrees on reputations. Once we consider
a more realistic scenario of imperfect information, where reputations are private,
and individuals occasionally misinterpret or miss observations, the leading eight
do not promote cooperation anymore. Instead, minor initial disagreements can proliferate,
fragmenting populations into subgroups. In a next step, we consider ways to mitigate
this issue. We first explore whether introducing “generosity” can stabilize cooperation
when players use the leading eight strategies in noisy environments. This approach
of modifying strategies to include probabilistic elements for coping with errors
is known to work well in direct reciprocity. However, as we show here, it fails
for the more complex norms of indirect reciprocity. Imperfect information still
prevents cooperation from evolving. On the other hand, we succeeded to show in
this thesis that modifying the leading eight to use “quantitative assessment”,
i.e. tracking reputation scores on a scale beyond good and bad, and making overall
judgments of others based on a threshold, is highly successful, even when noise
increases in the environment. Cooperation can flourish when reputations\r\nare
more nuanced, and players have a broader understanding what it means to be “good.”
Finally, we present a single theoretical framework that unites the two modes of
reciprocity despite their differences. Within this framework, we identify a novel
simple and successful strategy for indirect reciprocity, which can cope with noisy
environments and has an analogue in direct reciprocity. We can also analyze decision
making when different sources of information are available. Our results help highlight
that for sustaining cooperation, already the most simple rules of reciprocity
can be sufficient."

text: "Plants maintain the capacity to develop new organs e.g. lateral roots post-embryonically
throughout their whole life and thereby flexibly adapt to ever-changing environmental
conditions. Plant hormones auxin and cytokinin are the main regulators of the
lateral root organogenesis. Additionally to their solo activities, the interaction
between auxin and\r\ncytokinin plays crucial role in fine-tuning of lateral root
development and growth. In particular, cytokinin modulates auxin distribution
within the developing lateral root by affecting the endomembrane trafficking of
auxin transporter PIN1 and promoting its vacuolar degradation (Marhavý et al.,
2011, 2014). This effect is independent of transcription and\r\ntranslation. Therefore,
it suggests novel, non-canonical cytokinin activity occuring possibly on the posttranslational
level. Impact of cytokinin and other plant hormones on auxin transporters (including
PIN1) on the posttranslational level is described in detail in the introduction
part of this thesis in a form of a review (Semeradova et al., 2020). To gain insights
into the molecular machinery underlying cytokinin effect on the endomembrane trafficking
in the plant cell, in particular on the PIN1 degradation, we conducted two large
proteomic screens: 1) Identification of cytokinin binding proteins using\r\nchemical
proteomics. 2) Monitoring of proteomic and phosphoproteomic changes upon cytokinin
treatment. In the first screen, we identified DYNAMIN RELATED PROTEIN 2A (DRP2A).
We found that DRP2A plays a role in cytokinin regulated processes during the plant
growth and that cytokinin treatment promotes destabilization of DRP2A protein.
However, the role of DRP2A in the PIN1 degradation remains to be elucidated. In
the second screen, we found VACUOLAR PROTEIN SORTING 9A (VPS9A). VPS9a plays crucial
role in plant’s response to cytokin and in cytokinin mediated PIN1 degradation.
Altogether, we identified proteins, which bind to cytokinin and proteins that
in response to\r\ncytokinin exhibit significantly changed abundance or phosphorylation
pattern. By combining information from these two screens, we can pave our way
towards understanding of noncanonical cytokinin effects."

text: "Most real-world flows are multiphase, yet we know little about them compared
to their single-phase counterparts. Multiphase flows are more difficult to investigate
as their dynamics occur in large parameter space and involve complex phenomena
such as preferential concentration, turbulence modulation, non-Newtonian rheology,
etc. Over the last few decades, experiments in particle-laden flows have taken
a back seat in favour of ever-improving computational resources. However, computers
are still not powerful enough to simulate a real-world fluid with millions of
finite-size particles. Experiments are essential not only because they offer a
reliable way to investigate real-world multiphase flows but also because they
serve to validate numerical studies and steer the research in a relevant direction.
In this work, we have experimentally investigated particle-laden flows in pipes,
and in particular, examined the effect of particles on the laminar-turbulent transition
and the drag scaling in turbulent flows.\r\n\r\nFor particle-laden pipe flows,
an earlier study [Matas et al., 2003] reported how the sub-critical (i.e., hysteretic)
transition that occurs via localised turbulent structures called puffs is affected
by the addition of particles. In this study, in addition to this known transition,
we found a super-critical transition to a globally fluctuating state with increasing
particle concentration. At the same time, the Newtonian-type transition via puffs
is delayed to larger Reynolds numbers. At an even higher concentration, only the
globally fluctuating state is found. The dynamics of particle-laden flows are
hence determined by two competing instabilities that give rise to three flow regimes:
Newtonian-type turbulence at low, a particle-induced globally fluctuating state
at high, and a coexistence state at intermediate concentrations.\r\n\r\nThe effect
of particles on turbulent drag is ambiguous, with studies reporting drag reduction,
no net change, and even drag increase. The ambiguity arises because, in addition
to particle concentration, particle shape, size, and density also affect the net
drag. Even similar particles might affect the flow dissimilarly in different Reynolds
number and concentration ranges. In the present study, we explored a wide range
of both Reynolds number and concentration, using spherical as well as cylindrical
particles. We found that the spherical particles do not reduce drag while the
cylindrical particles are drag-reducing within a specific Reynolds number interval.
The interval strongly depends on the particle concentration and the relative size
of the pipe and particles. Within this interval, the magnitude of drag reduction
reaches a maximum. These drag reduction maxima appear to fall onto a distinct
power-law curve irrespective of the pipe diameter and particle concentration,
and this curve can be considered as the maximum drag reduction asymptote for a
given fibre shape. Such an asymptote is well known for polymeric flows but had
not been identified for particle-laden flows prior to this work."
