Developmental transcriptome ofAplysia californica' [PDF]
AbstractGenome‐wide transcriptional changes in development provide important insight into mechanisms underlying growth, differentiation, and patterning. However, such large‐scale developmental studies have been limited to a few representatives of Ecdysozoans and Chordates.

Origin and diversification of steroids: Co-evolution of enzymes and nuclear receptors [PDF]
Recent sequencing of amphioxus and sea urchin genomes has provided important data for understanding the origins of enzymes that synthesize adrenal and sex steroids and the receptors that mediate physiological response to these vertebrate steroids ...

Increase in Growth Cone Size Correlates with Decrease in Neurite Growth Rate
Several important discoveries in growth cone cell biology were made possible by the use of growth cones derived from cultured Aplysia bag cell neurons, including the characterization of the organization and dynamics of the cytoskeleton.

Behavioral aging is associated with reduced sensory neuron excitability in Aplysia californica
Invertebrate models have advantages for understanding the basis of behavioral aging due to their simple nervous systems and short lifespans. The potential usefulness of Aplysia californica in aging research is apparent from its long history of ...

Protein synthesis at synaptic sites on dendrites [PDF]
Studies over the past 20 years have revealed that gene expression in neurons is carried out by a distributed network of translational machinery. One component of this network is localized in dendrites, where polyribosomes and associated membranous ...

Understanding intellectual disability through RASopathies [PDF]
Intellectual disability, commonly known as mental retardation in the International Classification of Disease from World Health Organization, is the term that describes an intellectual and adaptive cognitive disability that begins in early life during the

ABSTRACT This article explores how educator‐kibbutzim recruit socialist‐Zionist learning traditions to construct new forms of kinship. Bringing communities of practice theory to new kinship studies, we expand on the role of knowledge in bridging the social/biological.

Background Marine molluscs, as is the case with most aquatic animals, rely heavily on olfactory cues for survival. In the mollusc Aplysia californica, mate-attraction is mediated by a blend of water-borne protein pheromones that are detected by sensory ...

The Homeobox Genes: Classification, Regulation, Biological Functions, and Diseases
Overview of the homeobox gene superfamily and its pathophysiological roles. The homeobox superfamily comprises several major classes, including ANTP, PRD, TALE, LIM, POU, and others. Among these, the HOX clusters (A–D) play critical roles in embryonic development specifically in conferring cellular identity, regulating morphogenesis, and guiding axial ...
