Investigating body patterning in aquarium-raised flamboyant cuttlefish (Metasepia pfefferi) [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Cuttlefish are known for their ability to quickly alter their total appearance, or body pattern, to camouflage or to communicate with predators, prey and conspecifics.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2001 Early patterning of the body during animal development is a fundamental process to subsequent events including cell differentiation, tissue and organ formation, and correct function of the adult body. We focused on two major topics: body segmentation and brain patterning, both of which are essential for conferring a functional complexity to the body ...

Centrin diversity and basal body patterning across evolution: new insights from Paramecium [PDF]
Biology Open, 2017 First discovered in unicellular eukaryotes, centrins play crucial roles in basal body duplication and anchoring mechanisms. While the evolutionary status of the founding members of the family, Centrin2/Vfl2 and Centrin3/cdc31 has long been investigated ...

EvoDevoAlthough the adult pentaradial body plan of echinoderms evolved from a bilateral ancestor, identifying axial homologies between the morphologically divergent echinoderms and their bilaterian relatives has been an enduring problem in zoology.

Impact of resistant starch on body fat patterning and central appetite regulation.
PLoS ONE, 2007 BackgroundAdipose tissue patterning has a major influence on the risk of developing chronic disease. Environmental influences on both body fat patterning and appetite regulation are not fully understood. This study was performed to investigate the impact

The planarian dorsal-ventral boundary regulates anterior-posterior axis growth and patterning. [PDF]
PLoS BiologyRegeneration can involve the coordination of pattern formation in an outgrowth with the spatial pattern of pre-existing tissues, such as along body axes.

Retention of embryonic positional identity signatures in the adult sheep tail: evidence from HOXB13 spatial RNA expression gradients [PDF]
Scientific ReportsBody axis patterning in vertebrates is controlled by HOX genes during embryogenesis, with their expression gradients defining spatial identity along the anterior–posterior axis.
