ParaHox Genes Revisited: From Gut Patterning to Integrated Axial and Neural Organization in Rotifera

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 346, Issue 4, Page 357-369, June 2026.
In rotifers, ParaHox genes show a dispersed genomic organization, with Xlox absent across gnathiferans. Exclusive neuronal expression of Gsx and Cdx reveals that ancestral ParaHox genes coordinated neural and epithelial development beyond gut patterning, suggesting an integrated role in early bilaterian body plan organization.

Urochordate beta gamma-crystallin and the evolutionary origin of the vertebrate eye lens [PDF]

, 2005
A refracting lens is a key component of our image-forming camera eye; however, its evolutionary origin is unknown because precursor structures appear absent in nonvertebrates [1].

Thyroid-like function in the urochordate Ciona intestinalis [PDF]

, 2011
In the studies reported in the manuscript I investigated the involvement of Iodine and thyroxine (Thyroid Hormone, T4) in Ciona intestinalis metamorphosis. To date, the mechanisms regulating the metamorphosis of ascidians remain largely unknown.

Comprehensive characterization of glial cells in the urochordate Ciona intestinalis [PDF]

, 2021
There are two main classes of cells that are present in the nervous system: neurons and glia. Neurons are the signalling units of the nervous system and are responsible to transmit electrical and chemical signals to other cells, and their function ...

Three insulin-relaxin-like genes in Ciona intestinalis

, 2006
The Ciona intestinalis genome harbors three insulin-like genes: INS-L1, -L2 and -L3. Conserved synteny between the Ciona-human genomes predicts that Ciona INS-Ls are orthologous to the vertebrate insulin-relaxin family, but this relation cannot be ...

Computational Analysis of Ciona intestinalis Operons [PDF]

Integrative and Comparative Biology, 2010
Operons are clusters of genes that are co-regulated from a common promoter. Operons are typically associated with prokaryotes, although a small number of eukaryotes have been shown to possess them. Among metazoans, operons have been extensively characterized in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans in which ∼15% of the total genes are organized into ...
