3D super-res microscopy reveals ultrastructure of asymmetric adherens junctions between leader & follower cells in angiogenesis – BIN1 & SNX9 are regulators 📹 Vera Janssen et al University of Amsterdam in @jcb.org ➡️ bpod.org.uk/archive/2026...

How do endothelial cells maintain their connections? Together with the team of @vessel-integrity.bsky.social, we used crispant zebrafish to reveal that SNX9 controls endothelial cell-cell junction dynamics during sheet migration in the developing common cardinal vein. rupress.org/jcb/article/...

From those junctional BAR proteins BIN1 and SNX9 emerged as novel regulators of front-to-rear polarity in follower cells during endothelial collective migration. rupress.org/jcb/article/...

In this study, by performing an overall BAR protein localization screen, we identified a variety of BAR protein to be recruited to asymmetric junctions. rupress.org/jcb/article/...

How do endothelial cells interact while migrating? Together with @jesseaic.bsky.social @scopeshifu.bsky.social @aicjanelia.bsky.social, we used #Cryo-SIM and #FIB-SEM to reveal a surprising diversity of nanoscale plasma membrane curvatures at asymmetric junctions. rupress.org/jcb/article/...

During vascular development endothelial cells migrate collectively while remaining connected to one another via asymmetric adherens junctions. rupress.org/jcb/article/...

We are very proud to share our latest work from @verajanssen.bsky.social and @aangulou.bsky.social @amsterdamumc.bsky.social, now published in @jcb.org! We are grateful to the entire team and for the support from NWO and ZonMw. More details in the following posts.

Janssen, Angulo-Urarte, et al. @huveneerslab.bsky.social @uva.nl show that nanoscale membrane curvatures at asymmetric endothelial cell–cell junctions serve as a scaffold to recruit BAR proteins, including BIN1 and SNX9, during collective migration. rupress.org/jcb/article/...

Thank you to everyone who joined 'Building networks: engineering in vascular biology' at EMBL Barcelona last week. It was a fantastic few days of inspiring science and a great reminder of how rapidly the #VascularBiology and #Bioengineering communities are evolving together 🧬🧪 #EMBOBuildNetworks

Building Networks: Engineering in Vascular Biology As we begin the final day of the meeting, we hope all participants have enjoyed this truly engaging and inspiring event. with Kristina Haase, Katie Bentley, & Christopher Chen #EMBOBuildNetworks @events.embl.org

@huveneerslab.bsky.social highlights recent work from Mayo et al. (doi.org/10.1083/jcb....) identifying Scribble as a regulator of endothelial #AdherensJunctions during #angiogenesis. rupress.org/jcb/article/... #Adhesion #Cytoskeleton #Development

For those interested in endothelial junctions: our latest paper is out in iScience, and it includes a mass spectrometry based VE-cadherin interactome! Turns out that there are many more molecular intractions going on than just with the catenins… See: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Very pleased with our newest publication! In this study, we identify the Calcineurin-NFAT-DSCR1.4 signaling pathway as a druggable driver of capillary malformations caused by the GNAQ p.R183Q mutation, which is associated with port-wine stains and Sturge-Weber syndrome. 🔗 article: rdcu.be/e2gRC
