Abstract in brief

  • Directed collective cell migration is crucial for morphogenesis, and various physical cues, such as electric fields, influence this process in living organisms.
  • Research on Xenopus laevis shows that electric fields promote the directed migration of embryonic stem cells in vivo, specifically in the cephalic neural crest.
  • The study identifies voltage-sensitive phosphatase 1 as essential for translating these electric fields into directional movement, suggesting that tissue morphogenesis is affected by mechanical properties generated by ectoderm movements.
