However, for many functional processes, including transcription initiation, the pairwise motion of distal chromosomal elements such as enhancers and promoters is essential and necessitates dynamic fluidity. Here, we used a live-imaging assay to simultaneously measure the positions of pairs of enhancers and promoters and their transcriptional output while systematically varying the genomic separation between these two DNA loci. Our analysis reveals the coexistence of a compact globular organization and fast subdiffusive dynamics. These combined features cause an anomalous scaling of polymer relaxation times with genomic separation leading to long-ranged correlations. Thus, encounter times of DNA loci are much less dependent on genomic distance than predicted by existing polymer models, with potential consequences for eukaryotic gene expression.","lang":"eng"}],"type":"journal_article","doi":"10.1126/science.adf5568","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"oa":1,"main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://doi.org/10.1126/science.adf5568"}],"external_id":{"isi":["001106405600028"]},"project":[{"grant_number":"343-2022","_id":"34e2a5b5-11ca-11ed-8bc3-b2265616ef0b","name":"A mechano-chemical theory for stem cell fate decisions in organoid development"}],"isi":1,"quality_controlled":"1","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1095-9203"]},"month":"06","author":[{"full_name":"Brückner, David","first_name":"David","last_name":"Brückner","id":"e1e86031-6537-11eb-953a-f7ab92be508d","orcid":"0000-0001-7205-2975"},{"last_name":"Chen","first_name":"Hongtao","full_name":"Chen, Hongtao"},{"first_name":"Lev","last_name":"Barinov","full_name":"Barinov, Lev"},{"first_name":"Benjamin","last_name":"Zoller","full_name":"Zoller, Benjamin"},{"first_name":"Thomas","last_name":"Gregor","full_name":"Gregor, Thomas"}],"volume":380,"date_updated":"2023-12-13T11:41:07Z","date_created":"2023-07-23T22:01:12Z","acknowledgement":"This work was supported in part by the U.S. National Science Foundation, the Center for the Physics of Biological Function (grant PHY-1734030), and the National Institutes of Health (grants R01GM097275, U01DA047730, and U01DK127429).

Lymphatic capillaries form branched networks, which play a key role in the circulation of tissue fluid and immune cells. Although mouse models and correlative patient data indicate that the lymphatic capillary density directly correlates with functional output, i.e., tissue fluid drainage and trafficking efficiency of dendritic cells, the mechanisms ensuring efficient tissue coverage remain poorly understood. Here, we use the mouse ear pinna lymphatic vessel network as a model system and combine lineage-tracing, genetic perturbations, whole-organ reconstructions and theoretical modeling to show that the dermal lymphatic capillaries tile space in an optimal, space-filling manner. This coverage is achieved by two complementary mechanisms: initial tissue invasion provides a non-optimal global scaffold via self-organized branching morphogenesis, while VEGF-C dependent side-branching from existing capillaries rapidly optimizes local coverage by directionally targeting low-density regions. With these two ingredients, we show that a minimal biophysical model can reproduce quantitatively whole-network reconstructions, across development and perturbations. Our results show that lymphatic capillary networks can exploit local self-organizing mechanisms to achieve tissue-scale optimization.","lang":"eng"}],"_id":"14378","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","intvolume":" 14","ddc":["570"],"title":"Self-organized and directed branching results in optimal coverage in developing dermal lymphatic networks","status":"public","oa_version":"Published Version","file":[{"relation":"main_file","file_id":"14384","checksum":"4fe5423403f2531753bcd9e0fea48e05","success":1,"date_updated":"2023-10-03T07:46:36Z","date_created":"2023-10-03T07:46:36Z","access_level":"open_access","file_name":"2023_NatureComm_Ucar.pdf","file_size":8143264,"content_type":"application/pdf","creator":"dernst"}],"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2041-1723"]},"month":"09","tmp":{"name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","short":"CC BY (4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png"},"oa":1,"external_id":{"isi":["001075884500007"],"pmid":["37735168"]},"project":[{"_id":"05943252-7A3F-11EA-A408-12923DDC885E","grant_number":"851288","call_identifier":"H2020","name":"Design Principles of Branching Morphogenesis"},{"_id":"260C2330-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","grant_number":"754411","name":"ISTplus - Postdoctoral Fellowships","call_identifier":"H2020"}],"quality_controlled":"1","isi":1,"doi":"10.1038/s41467-023-41456-7","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"article_number":"5878","ec_funded":1,"file_date_updated":"2023-10-03T07:46:36Z","pmid":1,"year":"2023","acknowledgement":"We thank Dr. Kari Alitalo (University of Helsinki and Wihuri Research Institute) for critical reading of the manuscript, providing Vegfc+/− and Clp24ΔEC mouse strains and for hosting K.V.’s Academy of Finland postdoctoral researcher period (2015–2018).

Whereas it is well established that single-cell migration is often guided by gradients of chemokines and other chemoattractants, it remains poorly understood how these gradients are generated, maintained, and modulated. By combining experimental data with theory on leukocyte chemotaxis guided by the G protein–coupled receptor (GPCR) CCR7, we demonstrate that in addition to its role as the sensory receptor that steers migration, CCR7 also acts as a generator and a modulator of chemotactic gradients. Upon exposure to the CCR7 ligand CCL19, dendritic cells (DCs) effectively internalize the receptor and ligand as part of the canonical GPCR desensitization response. We show that CCR7 internalization also acts as an effective sink for the chemoattractant, dynamically shaping the spatiotemporal distribution of the chemokine. This mechanism drives complex collective migration patterns, enabling DCs to create or sharpen chemotactic gradients. We further show that these self-generated gradients can sustain the long-range guidance of DCs, adapt collective migration patterns to the size and geometry of the environment, and provide a guidance cue for other comigrating cells. Such a dual role of CCR7 as a GPCR that both senses and consumes its ligand can thus provide a novel mode of cellular self-organization.","lang":"eng"}],"issue":"87","type":"journal_article","oa_version":"Published Version","_id":"14274","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","title":"CCR7 acts as both a sensor and a sink for CCL19 to coordinate collective leukocyte migration","status":"public","intvolume":" 8","day":"01","article_processing_charge":"No","scopus_import":"1","keyword":["General Medicine","Immunology"],"date_published":"2023-09-01T00:00:00Z","publication":"Science Immunology","citation":{"ama":"Alanko JH, Ucar MC, Canigova N, et al.

First, biomechanical models aim to explain the local and global mechanical stresses driving cell renewal as well as tissue shape maintenance. Second, compartmental models provide insights into the conditions necessary to keep a constant flow of cells with well-defined ratios of cell types, and how perturbations can lead to an unbalance of relative compartment sizes. A third family of models address, at the cellular level, the nature and regulation of stem fate choices that are necessary to fuel cellular turnover.

To develop such models, collaborations between experimental cell biologists and theoreticians are increasingly important but these two groups often face challenges achieving mutual understanding. To help navigate these challenges, this Perspective discusses different modelling approaches, including bottom-up hypothesis-driven and top-down data-driven models, and highlights their strengths and applications. Using cell mechanics as an example, we explore the integration of specific physical models with experimental data from the molecular, cellular and tissue level up to multiscale input. We also emphasize the importance of constraining model complexity and outline strategies for crosstalk between experimental design and model development. Furthermore, we highlight how physical models can provide conceptual insights and produce unifying and generalizable frameworks for biological phenomena. Overall, this Perspective aims to promote fruitful collaborations that advance our understanding of complex biological systems."}],"issue":"24","publication":"Journal of Cell Science","citation":{"short":"C.
