The Company of Biologists | Migration of adult fat body precursor cells in the fly abdomen @CompanyofBiologists | Uploaded May 2023 | Updated October 2024, 21 hours ago.
In Volume 150, Issue 10, Taiichi Tsuyama, Tadashi Uemura and colleagues identify the origins and developmental processes of adult-type fat body in Drosophila.
This video shows that adult fat body precursor cells (AFBp) in fruit flies migrate dorsally in the fly abdomen. Until 30 h APF, AFBp cells were only seen at the ventral side of the abdomen and migrated in the posterior direction. After 30 h APF, a subset of these cells started moving dorsally and covered almost the entire areas of the pleurite and tergite. Anterior is to the left, and dorsal is up.
