Bmp4 is required for the generation of primordial germ cells in the mouse embryo.
In many organisms the allocation of primordial germ cells (PGCs) is determined by the inheritance of maternal factors deposited in the egg. However, in mammals, inductive cell interactions are required around gastrulation to establish the germ line. Here,

Regulation of PHOX2B gene expression by the long non‐coding natural antisense RNA PHOX2B‐AS1
PHOX2B is a transcription factor essential for autonomic nervous system development. We identify and characterize PHOX2B‐AS1, a human long non‐coding antisense transcript at the PHOX2B locus, along with its murine counterpart. Our findings reveal bidirectional transcription and reciprocal regulation: PHOX2B activates PHOX2B‐AS1, whereas PHOX2B‐AS1 ...

Biglycan : a multivalent proteoglycan providing structure and signals [PDF]
Research over the past few years has provided fascinating results indicating that biglycan, besides being a ubiquitous structural component of the extracellular matrix (ECM), may act as a signaling molecule.

ABSTRACT Objective(s) Yes‐Associated Protein (YAP) is a critical regulator of cell proliferation and differentiation, having the capacity to convert differentiated cells into somatic stem cells in several contexts. Here we investigate the plasticity of adult mouse dental epithelial cells by testing the effects of ectopic YAP activation in dental ...

Abstract Orthodontic therapy applies forces to teeth, causing an inflammatory reaction in the periodontal ligament. This is repaired by remodeling of the periodontium, allowing tooth displacement. Although orthodontic therapy is mostly initiated during childhood and adolescence, the number of adults seeking this treatment is increasing as our society's

Effects of Different Doses of Bone Morphogenetic Protein 4 on Viability and Proliferation Rates of Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells [PDF]
Objective: In this study, we examined the effect of different doses of bone morphogeneticprotein 4 (BMP4) on CCE mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) viability andproliferation rates in order to improve the outcome of induction processes and make asystem ...

An evolutionarily conserved enhancer regulates Bmp4 expression in developing incisor and limb bud.
To elucidate the transcriptional regulation of Bmp4 expression during organogenesis, we used phylogenetic footprinting and transgenic reporter analyses to identify Bmp4 cis-regulatory modules (CRMs). These analyses identified a regulatory region located ∼
