Drosophila melanogaster embryonic haemocytes: masters of multitaskingWill Wood
Department of Biology and Biochemistry, University of Bath, BA2 7AY, UK
Nat Rev Mol Cell Biol 8:542-51. 2007..Instead, throughout development, embryonic haemocytes are occupied with other tasks: they undergo complex migrations and carry out several non-immune functions that are crucial for successful embryogenesis...
Coordinated control of cell adhesion, polarity, and cytoskeleton underlies Hox-induced organogenesis in DrosophilaBridget Lovegrove
Department of Zoology, University of Cambridge, Cambridge CB2 3EJ, United Kingdom
Curr Biol 16:2206-16. 2006..Importantly, very few of the direct Hox targets known are "realizator" genes involved directly in the cellular processes of organogenesis...

Department of Genetics, University of Cambridge, Cambridge CB2 3EH, UK
Nat Cell Biol 4:937-44. 2002..We show that Wingless (Wg) signalling and Jun amino-terminal kinase (JNK) signalling have overlapping but different roles in these events...
Wound healing recapitulates morphogenesis in Drosophila embryosWilliam Wood
Department of Anatomy and Developmental Biology, University College London, Gower Street, London WC1E 6BT, UK
Nat Cell Biol 4:907-12. 2002..Our data suggest a more complex model for epithelial repair than previously envisaged and highlight remarkable similarities with the well-characterized morphogenetic movement of dorsal closure in Drosophila...
