The role that Wnt/PCP signaling plays in mesenchymal contexts, however, is only poorly understood. While previous studies have demonstrated the capacity of Wnt/PCP signaling to polarize and guide directed migration of mesenchymal cells, it remains unclear whether endogenous Wnt/PCP signaling performs these functions instructively, as it does in epithelial cells. Here we developed a light-switchable version of the Wnt/PCP receptor Frizzled 7 (Fz7) to unambiguously distinguish between an instructive and a permissive role of Wnt/PCP signaling for the directional collective migration of mesendoderm progenitor cells during zebrafish gastrulation. We show that prechordal plate (ppl) cell migration is defective in maternal-zygotic fz7a and fz7b (MZ fz7a,b) double mutant embryos, and that Fz7 functions cell-autonomously in this process by promoting ppl cell protrusion formation and directed migration. We further show that local activation of Fz7 can direct ppl cell migration both in vitro and in vivo. Surprisingly, however, uniform Fz7 activation is sufficient to fully rescue the ppl cell migration defect in MZ fz7a,b mutant embryos, indicating that Wnt/PCP signaling functions permissively rather than instructively in directed mesendoderm cell migration during zebrafish gastrulation."}],"file_date_updated":"2021-02-11T23:30:21Z","user_id":"c635000d-4b10-11ee-a964-aac5a93f6ac1","pubrep_id":"1031","alternative_title":["ISTA Thesis"],"status":"public","day":"22","publication_identifier":{"issn":["2663-337X"]},"date_published":"2018-06-22T00:00:00Z"}
