PLoS ONE, 2007 Hemangioblasts are bi-potential precursors for blood and endothelial cells (BCs and ECs). Existence of the hemangioblast in vivo by its strict definition, i.e. a clonal precursor giving rise to these two cell types after division, is still debated. Using a combination of mitotic figure analysis, cell labeling and long-term cell tracing, we show that ...

The International Journal of Developmental Biology, 2018 As one of the most economically important species and a unique model organism for biological and medical research, the chicken represents the first non-mammalian amniotic species to have its genome sequenced; and so far, the chicken reference genome represents the best assembled and annotated avian genome.

ANKRD9 negatively regulates chicken myogenesis through ubiquitin-mediated regulation of IMPDH2
Poultry ScienceSkeletal muscle development is regulated by transcriptional and post-translational mechanisms. While ankyrin repeat proteins participate in post-translational modifications, their role in myogenesis remains unclear.

Ilha do Desterro, 2008 Chicken consists of a collection of 38 gay poems written and illustrated by Seattle poet Dennis Kelly. Several kinds of gay poems are introduced here, all centered on the theme of young gay love. The author has already published Gay Sunshine & Fag Rag, and is working on a long gay epic called Cantos Northwest, whose ten first poems can also be

Progress from Chicken Genetics to the Chicken Genome
Poultry Science, 2006 The chicken has a proud history, both in genetic research and as a source of food. Here we attempt to provide an overview of past contributions of the chicken in both arenas and to link those contributions to the near future from a genetic perspective. Companion articles will discuss current poultry genetics research in greater detail.

BMC Genomics, 2018 Background In avian species, liver is the main site of de novo lipogenesis, and hepatic lipid metabolism relates closely to adipose fat deposition. Using our fat and lean chicken lines of striking differences in abdominal fat content, post-hatch lipid ...
