Developmentally programmed germ cell remodeling by endodermal cell cannibalism
Primordial germ cells (PGCs) in many species associate intimately with endodermal cells, bu the significance of such interactions is largely unexplored. Here, we show that C. elegans PGCs form lobes that are removed and digested by endodermal cells, dramatically altering PGC size and mitochondrial c...
