Maternal Hyperglycemia Disrupts Cerebral Cortex Development Through the Foxp1‐Dll1‐Notch Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Maternal hyperglycemia disrupts offspring cortical development through a Foxp1–Dll1–Notch signaling axis. In a PGDM mouse model, intrauterine hyperglycemia decreases cortical thickness and perturbs neuronal layering by downregulating Foxp1, which transcriptionally regulates the Notch ligand Dll1.

Ectodysplasin target gene Fgf20 regulates mammary bud growth and ductal invasion and branching during puberty

Scientific Reports, 2017
Mammary gland development begins with the appearance of epithelial placodes that invaginate, sprout, and branch to form small arborized trees by birth.

Epithelial-mesenchymal interactions and lung branching morphogenesis. Role of polyamines and transforming growth factor ß1

European Journal of Histochemistry, 2009
Lung branching morphogenesis is a result of epithelial-mesenchymal interactions, which are in turn dependent on extracellular matrix composition and cytokine regulation.

Arhgef1 Deletion Disrupts Early Cortical Neurogenesis via PAK1 Overactivation and Causes Motor Dysfunction in Adulthood

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ARHGEF1 plays a pivotal role in both embryonic cortical neurogenesis and adult motor function. During early development, it governs genesis of deep‐layer cortical neurons by negatively regulating RAC1/CDC42‐PAK1‐Cofilin signaling. In adulthood, ARHGEF1 is important for the maintenance of neuronal morphology and activity in the motor cortex, ensuring ...

Circulating Exosomes Drive Persistent Neuronal Dysfunction in Post‐Herpetic Neuralgia Patients

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Proposed model of exosome‐mediated neuronal dysfunction in post‐herpetic neuralgia (PHN). (1) Circulating, non‐pathogenic exosomes maintain homeostatic processes in healthy skin, where sensory nerve fibers innervate the epidermis and dermis. (2) During acute zoster, reactivating varicella zoster virus (VZV) travels down neurites to the skin causing ...

Role of GSK3 signaling in neuronal morphogenesis

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2011
Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) is emerging as a key regulator of several aspects of neuronal morphogenesis including neuronal polarization, axon growth and axon branching.

Characterization of the extracellular matrix from human and dog umbilical cords

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The extracellular matrix is important for maintaining tissue morphogenesis and homeostasis; it can also be used as a biomaterial for the production of biological scaffolds. Particularly, the umbilical cord has shown potential in the production of scaffolds for small‐diameter vessels.

Innervation of the tubarial glands: A hypothesis‐driven anatomical review

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The tubarial glands have been described as a macroscopic bilateral glandular complex in the posterolateral nasopharynx near the torus tubarius and the pharyngeal opening of the Eustachian tube. Since their recognition on prostate‐specific membrane antigen‐based imaging, their anatomical classification has remained debated, with converging ...

Tracheal chambers as a key innovation for high‐frequency emission in bat echolocation

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Key innovations are pivotal for biodiversity and facilitating evolutionary success, enabling organisms' adaptation to various ecological niches through the diversification of phenotypic traits. In mammals, notable adaptations include evolving hypsodonty for grazing on grasses and, for bats, evolving echolocation and wing acquisition.

Humans and platyrrhines share a pattern of articular variance

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Previous work has identified a pattern of articular shape variation in modern human limb joints, in which convex joint surfaces exhibit constrained variance relative to their more variable concave conarticulars. This pattern is notable given that joint morphogenesis is influenced by local biomechanical environments, which vary substantially ...
