Myosin II dynamics are regulated by tension in intercalating cells (2009, background): “Myosin II Forms Multicellular Cable-like Structures in Intercalating Cells Myosin II directs polarized cell rearrangements in the Drosophila embryo through the contraction of specific boundaries between cells (Figures 1A–1D) (Bertet et al., 2004; Zallen and Wieschaus, 2004).”
Cadherins in development: cell adhesion, sorting, and tissue morphogenesis. (2006, positive): “Intercalation during gastrulation involves remodeling of AJs to expand cell–cell adhesions in one plane of the epithelium and contract them in the perpendicular plane (Bertet et al. 2004).”
Cell flow reorients the axis of planar polarity in the wing epithelium of Drosophila. (2010, positive): “…generated forces have an important role in epithelial remodeling differs from other con-vergent-extension events where autonomous cell movements actively drive tissue shape changes (Bertet et al., 2004; Blankenship et al., 2006; Keller et al., 2008; Rauzi et al., 2008; Zallen and Wieschaus, 2004).”

Tight junctions/adherens junctions: basic structure and function. (2007, background): “In addition, Rho GTPases may regulate actomyosin contractions, which is important for junctional re-arrangements during morphogenetic movements (Bertet et al ., 2004).”
Mechanical control of tissue and organ development (2010, background): “The transmission of these forces over multiple cells drives cell realignment and induces tissue restructuring, as observed in Drosophila GBE (Butler et al., 2009).”
Adherens junction: molecular architecture and regulation. (2009, positive): “The actomyosin-dependent regulation of the AJ is also implicated in cell intercalation during early morphogenesis of Drosophila embryos (Bertet et al. 2004; Zallen and Wieschaus 2004; Blankenship et al. 2006).”
The influence of cell mechanics, cell-cell interactions, and proliferation on epithelial packing. (2007, background): “Many genes that play a role in epithelial junction remodeling have been identified [3, 9, 20].”
Multicellular rosette formation links planar cell polarity to tissue morphogenesis. (2006, background): “T1 neighbor exchange as previously described (Bertet et al., 2004) therefore contributes to axis elongation and represents one manifestation of the general cell behaviors that can also lead to rosette formation.”
Adherens junctions: from molecules to morphogenesis (2010, background): “The cells dorsal and ventral to these constricting contacts are pulled towards each other and push anterior–posterior neighbours apart, promoting cell intercalatio”
