摘要: Cellular communication is at the heart of animal development, and guides specification cell fates, movement cells within between tissues, coordinated arrangement different body parts. During organ tissue growth, cell-cell plays a critical role in decisions that determine whether survive to contribute organism. In this review, we discuss recent insights into competition, social cellular phenomenon selects fittest tissue, as such potentially contributes regulation its growth final size. The field competition has seen huge explosion study last several years, facilitated by increasingly sophisticated genetic molecular technology available Drosophila driven relevance stem biology human cancer.
