Intravital imaging strategy FlyVAB reveals the dependence of Drosophila enteroblast differentiation on the local physiology
Abstract
Tang et. al. demonstrate a 3Dprinted platform, FlyVAB, for intravital imaging and visualization of the Drosophila posterior midgut at a single-cell level. This method enables tracking of the stem cell lineage in the midgut of the flies constantly for up to 10 days.
