Dorsoventral patterning in hemichordates: insights into early chordate evolution. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2006 We have compared the dorsoventral development of hemichordates and chordates to deduce the organization of their common ancestor, and hence to identify the evolutionary modifications of the chordate body axis after the lineages split. In the hemichordate

The Selector Gene apterous and Notch Are Required to Locally Increase Mechanical Cell Bond Tension at the Drosophila Dorsoventral Compartment Boundary. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 The separation of cells with distinct fates and functions is important for tissue and organ formation during animal development. Regions of different fates within tissues are often separated from another along straight boundaries.

A regulatory code for neurogenic gene expression in the Drosophila embryo [PDF]
, 2004 Bioinformatics methods have identified enhancers that mediate restricted expression in the Drosophila embryo. However, only a small fraction of the predicted enhancers actually work when tested in vivo.

Transcriptome Reveals Multi Pigmentation Genes Affecting Dorsoventral Pattern in Avian Body
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020 Certain animals exhibit a special dorsoventral pattern with a lighter ventral side compared to the dorsal one and this phenomenon was preserved in the long-term evolution process. Birds also retain this trait. Recently, Inaba et al.

Laminar and dorsoventral molecular organization of the medial entorhinal cortex revealed by large-scale anatomical analysis of gene expression. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2015 Neural circuits in the medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) encode an animal's position and orientation in space. Within the MEC spatial representations, including grid and directional firing fields, have a laminar and dorsoventral organization that ...

Visual Field Coordinate Systems in Visual Neurophysiology [PDF]
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2023 In this work, algorithms have been developed to: 1. Compare visual field coordinate data, presented in different representation systems; 2. Determine the distance in degrees between any two points in the visual field; 3.

Requirement for Slit-1 and Robo-2 in zonal segregation of olfactory sensory neuron axons in the main olfactory bulb [PDF]
, 2007 The formation of precise stereotypic connections in sensory systems is critical for the ability to detect and process signals from the environment. In the olfactory system, olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) project axons to spatially defined glomeruli ...

Ontogeny of ependymoglial cells lining the third ventricle in mice
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023 IntroductionDuring hypothalamic development, the germinative neuroepithelium gives birth to diverse neural cells that regulate numerous physiological functions in adulthood.MethodsHere, we studied the ontogeny of ependymal cells in the mouse mediobasal ...

PLoS ONE, 2011 Formation of a dorsoventral axis is a key event in the early development of most animal embryos. It is well established that bone morphogenetic proteins (Bmps) and Wnts are key mediators of dorsoventral patterning in vertebrates.
