A short-term chick embryo in vivo xenograft model to study retinoblastoma cancer stem cells

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022
Purpose: Cancer stem cells (CSCs) reported in various tumors play a crucial role in tumorigenesis and metastasis of retinoblastoma (Rb). Following the efforts to reduce, replace, and refine the use of mammalian models, we aimed to establish a short-term ...

Digital Three-Dimensional Atlas of Quail Development Using High-Resolution MRI [PDF]

, 2007
We present an archetypal set of three-dimensional digital atlases of the quail embryo based on microscopic magnetic resonance imaging (µMRI). The atlases are composed of three modules: (1) images of fixed ex ovo quail, ranging in age from embryonic day 5

Female Sex Development and Reproductive Duct Formation Depend on Wnt4a in Zebrafish. [PDF]

, 2019
In laboratory strains of zebrafish, sex determination occurs in the absence of a typical sex chromosome and it is not known what regulates the proportion of animals that develop as males or females.

MELK-a conserved kinase: functions, signaling, cancer, and controversy. [PDF]

, 2015
Maternal embryonic leucine zipper kinase (MELK) is a highly conserved serine/threonine kinase initially found to be expressed in a wide range of early embryonic cellular stages, and as a result has been implicated in embryogenesis and cell cycle control.

The first non-mammalian synapsid embryo from the Triassic of South Africa.

PLoS ONE
Oviparity was likely the plesiomorphic reproductive condition for non-mammalian Synapsida, the stem-mammal group. Yet, despite nearly two centuries of research, no definitive fossil eggs of late Palaeozoic or early Mesozoic synapsids have been discovered.

Selenoprotein gene nomenclature [PDF]

, 2016
The human genome contains 25 genes coding for selenocysteine-containing proteins (selenoproteins). These proteins are involved in a variety of functions, most notably redox homeostasis.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging for Characterization of a Chick Embryo Model of Cancer Cell Metastases

Molecular Imaging, 2018
Metastasis is the most common cause of death for patients with cancer. To fully understand the steps involved in metastatic dissemination, in vivo models are required, of which murine ones are the most common.

Nucleoside diphosphate kinase B is required for the formation of heterotrimeric G protein containing caveolae. [PDF]

, 2011
Caveolae are flask-shaped invaginations in the plasma membrane that serve to compartmentalize and organize signal transduction processes, including signals mediated by G protein-coupled receptors and heterotrimeric G proteins.

Light Activation of the Phosphoinositide Cycle in Intrinsically Photosensitive Chicken Retinal Ganglion Cells [PDF]

, 2010
Purpose: In vertebrates, intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) acting as nonvisual photoreceptors transmit environmental illumination information to the brain, regulating diverse non–image-forming tasks.
