Here's the @jidjournal June cover video https://t.co/q9j0a4zocb

Mammary bud epithelium adopts hair follicle cell fate upon contact with the hair follicle dermal condensate. E13.5 mouse mammary bud epithelium expressing mGFP (cyan) was manually separated from the surrounding mammary mesenchyme after enzyme treatment, and recombined with the E16.5 back skin mesenchyme dissected from a mouse embryo ubiquitously expressing mTdtomato (magenta). The recombinant was cultured for 6 days before fixation and whole-mount immunostaining with the dermal papilla marker Sox2 (yellow). Z-stack images were captured using Leica SP8 Upright confocal microscope with an HC PL APO 20x/0.75 IMM CORR CS2 objective. For more detail, see the article “Stabilization of epithelial beta-catenin compromises mammary call fate acquisition and branching morphogenesis” by Satta et al https://t.co/K8Ndciapfa.

@MariaCaffarel @EarlyImmunology I have the same issue

[Qiang Lan @sqianglan]

@MariaCaffarel @MikkolaLab @HiLIFE_helsinki @BIOTECH_UH @helsinkiuni @eLife Thanks. The revision for this paper is much smoother 😋

[Qiang Lan @sqianglan]

I am thrilled to share my postdoc work @MikkolaLab @HiLIFE_helsinki @BIOTECH_UH @helsinkiuni published @eLife. In this project, we tried to understand the regulation of the initial branching and pattern formation in embryonic mouse mammary gland.

[Qiang Lan @sqianglan]

If you have any question about the paper, welcome to talk to me in the mammary gland biology GRC in Italy in June. 😊

[Qiang Lan @sqianglan]

The review process through @ReviewCommons is very positive.

[Qiang Lan @sqianglan]

@PatrikAouad @MikkolaLab @HiLIFE_helsinki @BIOTECH_UH @helsinkiuni Thank you. It is so lucky for us to find support from your data as well.

[Qiang Lan @sqianglan]

Glad to see its final look. I started this project during my PhD, and thanks all the co-authors, especially @SanamPeyvandi and Prof. Curzio Rüegg @unifr, in working together to finish it.
