Abstract
Evidence supporting the postulated role of a Wnt ligand in the establishmen t of planar cell polarity has been elusive, but recent studies show that th e movement of epithelial cells during vertebrate gastrulation or Drosophila dorsal closure depends on both a Wnt ligand and the planar cell polarity p athway.
