The fly wing is a double layered epithelium which significantly reshapes during pupal stages of development. Cell extrusion is a process by which cells are expelled from the epithelium. It allows the tissue to reduce the number of cells during pupal development and thus to adjust the stress in the tissue. Although extrusion rates are reproducible in wild type experiments they exhibit quantitatively different behavior in genetically and mechanically perturbed wings. How the extrusions are controlled is yet unknown. Motivated by the experimentally obsevred extrusion patters we construct a model of mechanosensitive regulation of cell extrusions. In combination with a simple continuum model, previously used to describe the fly wing development [Etournay et. al. eLife 2015], it yields a dynamical equation for extrusion rates with a single relaxation time-scale.
