When we removed them, the SPD-5 scaffold became denser but didn't lose material. This suggests it's an elastically deformable solid! This only happens in mitosis.

Pleased to share my new review:
Ovulation: A cellular symphony in three movements π₯π₯
Ovulation is more than egg releaseβit's a tightly regulated, tissue-scale process. Here, I present a temporal framework structured as a symphony performed by the cells of the follicle.
