Abstract
The hepatopancreatic ductal (HPD) system connects both liver and pancreas to the intestine but the molecular details of HPD development are unclear. Here, the authors describe how regionalised Eph/Ephrin signaling regulates HPD morphogenesis by promoting cellular rearrangements leading to an open tube.
