Tgf-beta superfamily signaling in embryonic development and homeostasis.

abstract：:What are the thermodynamic costs of development? In this issue of Developmental Cell, Rodenfels et al. (2019) demonstrate that the high energetic cost of coordinated cell division that is regulated by phospho-signaling gives rise to a measurable periodicity in the heat dissipated during zebrafish embryogenesis. ...
