Dissecting early regulatory relationships in the lamprey neural crest gene network [PDF]
The neural crest, a multipotent embryonic cell type, originates at the border between neural and nonneural ectoderm. After neural tube closure, these cells undergo an epithelial–mesenchymal transition, migrate to precise, often distant locations, and ...

Introduction: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and miRNAs belong to a class of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) that play important roles and functions in the regulation of the expression of genes in main biological processes, such as cell proliferation, apoptosis,

BMP4 and FGF strongly induce differentiation of mouse ES cells into oral ectoderm
During embryonic development, oral ectoderm differentiates into the adenohypophysis, dental epithelia, salivary glands, and nasal pit. Few reports exist concerning the induction of oral ectoderm from embryonic stem (ES) cells.

Requirement of Smad4 from Ocular Surface Ectoderm for Retinal Development. [PDF]
Microphthalmia is characterized by abnormally small eyes and usually retinal dysplasia, accounting for up to 11% of the blindness in children. Right now there is no effective treatment for the disease, and the underlying mechanisms, especially how ...

Sp6 and Sp8 transcription factors control AER formation and dorsal-ventral patterning in limb development. [PDF]
The formation and maintenance of the apical ectodermal ridge (AER) is critical for the outgrowth and patterning of the vertebrate limb. The induction of the AER is a complex process that relies on integrated interactions among the Fgf, Wnt, and Bmp ...

ERRFI1, a neural crest (NC)‐associated gene, was upregulated in melanoma and negatively correlated with the expression of melanocytic differentiation markers and the susceptibility of melanoma cells toward BRAF inhibitors (BRAFi). Knocking down ERRFI1 significantly increased the sensitivity of melanoma cells to BRAFi.

Competence, specification and induction of Pax-3 in the trigeminal placode [PDF]
Placodes are discrete regions of thickened ectoderm that contribute extensively to the peripheral nervous system in the vertebrate head. The paired-domain transcription factor Pax-3 is an early molecular marker for the avian ophthalmic trigeminal (opV ...

A regulatory code for neurogenic gene expression in the Drosophila embryo [PDF]
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.

Building like a Coral—Parallelized, Multiscale Biofabrication
Corals build stiff, strong, and inherently circular skeletal materials under resource‐ and energy‐limited conditions—offering blueprints for transformative materials. We synthesize the current understanding of coral biomineralization and reframe coral growth as a multiscale, parallelized biofabrication process.

XASH genes promote neurogenesis in Xenopus embryos [PDF]
Neural development in Drosophila is promoted by a family of basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors encoded within the Achaete Scute-Complex (AS-C).
