A topological look into the evolution of developmental programs

Abstract: Rapid advance of experimental techniques provides an unprecedented in-depth view into complex developmental processes. Still, little is known on how the complexity of multicellular organisms evolved by elaborating developmental programs and inventing new cell types. A hurdle to understanding developmental evolution is the difficulty of even describing the intertwined network of spatiotemporal processes underlying the development of complex multicellular organisms. Nonetheless, an overview of developmental traj… Show more

“…According to a traditional perspective, "to study development is to study multicellularity" (Bonner, 2001). However, the exclusion of unicells from developmental biology is unwarranted (Minelli, 2020;Mani and Tlusty, 2021;Minelli and Valero-Gracia, 2022). Along their life cycles, several unicells undergo dramatic and predictable transitions, besides those corresponding to progression along the mitotic cycle (e.g., Bozdech et al, 2003;Matthews, 2005;Ehrenkaufer et al, 2007;Kabani et al, 2009;Dayel et al, 2011;Fairclough et al, 2013;Sebé-Pedrós et al, 2016).…”

“…According to a traditional perspective, “to study development is to study multicellularity” [ 41 ]. However, the exclusion of unicells from developmental biology is unwarranted [ 42 ]. Along their life cycles, several unicells undergo dramatic and predictable transitions, besides those corresponding to progression along the mitotic cycle.…”

“…However, the application of this framework may skew the resulting tree-like topology. This bias has possibly historical roots [ 42 ] in the tree-like topology map used to describe the cell lineage of Caenorhabditis elegans , the first ever constructed [ 84 ]. Hence, algorithms used to infer lineage maps are biased toward the production of tree-like and chain-like topologies [ 85 ].…”

“…Moreover, the multiple cell types are hierarchically ordered, and their kinetic properties, e.g., type-switching and proliferation rates, also seem to be coupled. The existence of hierarchy, or equivalently, acyclic cell-type lineage structures and kinetic coupling are prevalent in multicellular systems from immunity to development [4][5][6][7]. These single-cell rules emerging in a population may be related to the functions and the coordination of the population.…”
