ABSTRACT
Local cells can actively create reverse bending (evagination) in invaginated epithelia, which plays a crucial role in the formation of elaborate organisms. However, the precise physical mechanism driving the evagination remains elusive. Here, we present a three-dimensional vertex model, incorporating the intrinsic cell polarity, to explore the complex morphogenesis induced by local mechanical modulations. We find that invaginated tissues can spontaneously generate local reverse bending due to the shift of the apicobasal polarity. Their exact shapes can be analytically determined by the local apicobasal differential tension and the internal stress. Our continuum theory exhibits three regions in a phase diagram controlled by these two parameters, showing curvature transitions from ordered to disordered states. Additionally, we delve into epithelial curvature transition induced by the nucleus repositioning, revealing its active contribution to the apicobasal force generation. The uncovered mechanical principles could potentially guide more studies on epithelial folding in diverse systems.
