The endo-lysosomal system drives lumen formation in a human epiblast model

Epiblast lumen formation is a critical step that occurs during human embryo implantation. It begins with the apicosome, an apical compartment partly derived from endocytosed material. However, how the endo-lysosomal system contributes to apicosome formation and later lumen development remains unclear. Using a human plu...
