  In this important study, the authors present evidence for the novel involvement of a scavenger receptor in tubular morphogenesis. Using a convincing set of data, the authors propose that the Drosophila scavenger receptor Emp (homologous to human CD36 ) couples endocytosis of luminal molecules and regulates tube length via controlling Crumbs and Src. This work will be of broad interest to cell and development biologists as well as cancer biologists.
