  1. 1 Intro
  2. 2 Tissue division of labor can be regulated by superimposed signals and cell-cell interactions
  3. 3 Intestinal enterocytes, which are mainly affected by an oxygen gradient along the intestinal villus, show a continuum of specialization
  4. 4 What would be the optimal task allocation for cells that use cell-cell interactions to regulate their performance?
  5. 5 We model the collective performance of the cells considering that cells' performance is affected by the performance of their neighbor cells
  6. 6 Cell-cell interactions can lead to diverse patterns in gene expression and tissue space
  7. 7 We consider the fibroblasts population in order to test our theoretical predictions
  8. 8 There is potential cross-talk between every pair of colon fibroblasts archetypes
  9. 9 Fibroblasts potentially use lateral inhibition to divide labor
  10. 10 In the absence of spatial information, archetype crosstalk networks can be used to dissect communication-driven tissue organization
