Abstract Background Freshwater salinization is an emerging stressor in amphibian populations, and embryonic stages are most vulnerable. To better understand the variation in embryonic osmoregulation, we challenged embryos of two phylogenetically diverse anuran species, Xenopus laevis and Lithobates (Rana) sylvaticus, along a gradient of non‐lethal ...

Pre‐oviposition development of the brown anole (Anolis sagrei)
Abstract Background The brown anole, Anolis sagrei, has emerged as a representative squamate species for developmental studies during the past decades. Novel functional tools have been established to manipulate embryogenesis through genome editing or the introduction of small molecule inhibitors, and their effective use requires a thorough ...

Abstract Background The avian node is the equivalent of the amphibian Spemann's organizer, as indicated by its ability to induce a secondary axis, cellular contribution, and gene expression, whereas the node of the mouse, which displays limited inductive capacities, was suggested to be a part of spatially distributed signaling.

Assessing candidate DLX‐regulated genes in the first pharyngeal arch of chick embryos
Abstract Background Insights into the development and evolution of asymmetrical jaws will require an understanding of the gene regulatory networks that underpin the differential morphogenesis of the maxillary and mandibular domains of the first pharyngeal arch in a variety of gnathostomes.

The link of FOXO1 and FOXO4 transcription factors to development of the lens
Abstract Background The FOXOs regulate the transcription of many genes, including ones directly linked to pathways required for lens development. However, this transcription factor family has rarely been studied in the context of development, including the development of the lens.

Heritability and causality of QRS duration and chronic heart failure risk
Methodological framework used to investigate the heritability using linkage disequilibrium score regression (LDSC) and causal relationship between QRS duration (exposure) and chronic heart failure (outcome) using Mendelian randomization. QRS data were sourced from GWAS and exome‐wide association studies (EWAS), and chronic heart failure GWAS data were ...
