Vertebrate Left-Right Asymmetry: What Can Nodal Cascade Gene Expression Patterns Tell Us?
Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2017 Laterality of inner organs is a wide-spread characteristic of vertebrates and beyond. It is ultimately controlled by the left-asymmetric activation of the Nodal signaling cascade in the lateral plate mesoderm of the neurula stage embryo, which results ...

Three-dimensional flow in Kupffer's Vesicle [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 Whilst many vertebrates appear externally left-right symmetric, the arrangement of internal organs is asymmetric. In zebrafish, the breaking of left-right symmetry is organised by Kupffer's Vesicle (KV): an approximately spherical, fluid-filled structure that begins to form in the embryo 10 hours post fertilisation.

Role of cilia activity and surrounding viscous fluid on properties of metachronal waves [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Large groups of active cilia collectively beat in a fluid medium as metachronal waves, essential for some microorganisms motility and for flow generation in mucociliary clearance. Several models can predict the emergence of metachronal waves, but what controls the properties of metachronal waves is still unclear.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Plutonium was discovered and first synthesized in the early 1940's. Several isotopes of plutonium are used in nuclear technologies, 238Pu for heat generation and 239Pu for energy production and weapons. Both isotopes emit alpha particles, which pose a significant radiation hazard when incorporated into the body.

Atypical calcium regulation of the PKD2-L1 polycystin ion channel
eLife, 2016 Native PKD2-L1 channel subunits are present in primary cilia and other restricted cellular spaces. Here we investigate the mechanism for the channel's unusual regulation by external calcium, and rationalize this behavior to its specialized function.

The inhibition of MDM2 slows cell proliferation and activates apoptosis in ADPKD cell lines
Biology of the Cell, Volume 115, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is a pathology characterised by the formation of kidney cists that impair renal function. The wall of renal cysts is covered with cystic cells that show increased activation of mTOR. Abnormal mTOR activation inhibits autophagy, promotes the degradation of TP53 by the proteasome in a mechanism ...

Deciphering the skeletal interoceptive circuitry to control bone homeostasis
BMEMat, EarlyView.This review introduces the skeletal interoceptive circuitry, covering the ascending signals from bone tissues to the brain (sensors), the central neural circuits that integrate this information and dispatch commands (CPU), and the descending pathways that regulate bone homeostasis (effectors).
