Emergent cellular self-organization and mechanosensation initiate follicle pattern in the avian skin
Open accessAbstract
Mechanics of follicle patterning in skin: Studies of skin organogenesis have presupposed that a periodic molecular prepattern is responsible for the initiation of a periodic pattern of hair or feathers. To date, however, these initiating molecules have remained elusive. Using chicken skin as a model system, Shyer et al. found that the periodic spacing of feathers is triggered by mechanical rather than molecular events (see the Perspective by Grill). Furthermore, these mechanical events shape both the structure of prefeathers and their molecular identity. Science , this issue p. 811 ; see also p. 750

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
