Despite a distinct developmental origin, extraembryonic cells in mice contribute to gut endoderm and converge transcriptionally resemble their embryonic counterparts. Notably, all progenitors share non-canonical epigenome, raising several pertinent questions, including whether this landscape is reset match the regulation if persist into later development. Here we developed two-colour lineage-tracing strategy track isolate over time. We find that display substantial memory of origin retention original DNA methylation resulting transcriptional signatures. Furthermore, show undergo programmed cell death neighbouring clear remnants via non-professional phagocytosis. By midgestation, no longer detect wild-type gut, whereas they differentiate further p53-mutant embryos. Our study provides key insights molecular fate inside embryo.

Abstract Tissue compartmentalization is a fundamental feature of animal development, crucial for determining cell fate, growth, and organ morphogenesis. Hox genes play essential conserved roles in specifying homeotic compartments along the antero-posterior axis body. Despite extensive characterization gene regulation, mechanisms underlying formation, maintenance, reshaping during development remain incompletely understood. Here, we investigate role Toll-2 receptor formation folding Deformed (Dfd) compartment, which produces neck adult Drosophila . We show that properly forming bilateral Dfd compartment through fusion two eye-antennal imaginal discs. Additionally, find regulates timing morphogenesis by promoting apoptosis cell-cell rearrangements preceding folding. Last, establish independently sequentially governs both its via PI3K Src signaling, respectively. Altogether, our findings provide novel insights into spatiotemporal regulation development.
