Did you know that vascular cells are remarkably resilient- constantly face and adapt to environmental perturbations! By learning how vascular cells build resilience, we may uncover new strategies to treat vascular disease! Excited to discuss new ideas at next #VCBGRC2027 JOIN US!! ❤️ #Resilience

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/...

Stephan Huveneers @huveneerslab.bsky.social · 28/07/2026

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/...
