Studying evolution of the primary body axis in vivo and in vitro

open access: yeseLife, 2021
The metazoan body plan is established during early embryogenesis via collective cell rearrangements and evolutionarily conserved gene networks, as part of a process commonly referred to as gastrulation.

Body fat patterning and blood pressure levels: a comparative study between the Rai and the Lepcha in Sikkim

open access: yesAnthropological Review, 2021
We compared the perception of two ethnic groups in relation to health, obesity and blood pressure problems and its management, and to compare the body fat patterning and blood pressure levels between Rai and Lepcha ethnic groups.

Identification of Jmjd3 as an Essential Epigenetic Regulator of Hox Gene Temporal Collinear Activation for Body Axial Patterning in Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Body axial patterning develops via a rostral-to-caudal sequence and relies on the temporal colinear activation of Hox genes. However, the underlying mechanism of Hox gene temporal colinear activation remains largely elusive.

Antagonizing retinoic acid and FGF/MAPK pathways control posterior body patterning in the invertebrate chordate Ciona intestinalis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Vertebrate embryos exploit the mutual inhibition between the RA and FGF signalling pathways to coordinate the proliferative elongation of the main body axis with the progressive patterning and differentiation of its neuroectodermal and paraxial ...

Getting to the Heart of Left–Right Asymmetry: Contributions from the Zebrafish Model

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2021
The heart is laterally asymmetric. Not only is it positioned on the left side of the body but the organ itself is asymmetric. This patterning occurs across scales: at the organism level, through left–right axis patterning; at the organ level, where the ...

Archetypal Architecture Construction, Patterning, and Scaling Invariance in a 3D Embryoid Body Differentiation Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Self-organized patterning and architecture construction studying is a priority goal for fundamental developmental and stem cell biology. To study the spatiotemporal patterning of pluripotent stem cells of different origins, we developed a three ...

A diploblastic radiate animal at the dawn of cambrian diversification with a simple body plan: distinct from Cnidaria? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Microfossils of the genus Punctatus include developmental stages such as blastula, gastrula, and hatchlings, and represent the most complete developmental sequence of animals available from the earliest Cambrian.

Body size–fecal nutrient patterns of mammalian herbivores [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2021
In the recent article by le Roux et al. (1), the authors elegantly interlink several aspects of savanna ecology, one of which is a theoretically predicted positive relationship between herbivore body size and fecal N:P ratio. Their South African dataset supports this relationship, but our data from four other countries—including two other African ...

Fgf signalling triggers an intrinsic mesodermal timer that determines the duration of limb patterning

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Complex signalling between the apical ectodermal ridge (AER - a thickening of the distal epithelium) and the mesoderm controls limb patterning along the proximo-distal axis (humerus to digits).

Short and random: Modelling the effects of (proto-)neural elongations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
To understand how neurons and nervous systems first evolved, we need an account of the origins of neural elongations: Why did neural elongations (axons and dendrites) first originate, such that they could become the central component of both neurons and ...
