Ras-dva small GTPases lost during evolution of amniotes regulate regeneration in anamniotes
In contrast to amniotes (reptiles, birds and mammals), anamniotes (fishes and amphibians) can effectively regenerate body appendages such as fins, limbs and tails. Why such a useful capability was progressively lost in amniotes remains unknown.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) predicted that ocean surface temperature will rise of 0.6–2.0°C by 2100. Ocean warming is expected to produce strong impacts on marine ecosystems such as coral reefs, affecting their physiological ...

Initial characterization of gap phase introduction in every cell cycle of C. elegans embryogenesis
Early embryonic cell cycles usually alternate between S and M phases without any gap phase. When the gap phases are developmentally introduced in various cell types remains poorly defined especially during embryogenesis.

Brownian-like deviation of neighboring cells in the early embryogenesis of the zebrafish [PDF]
We investigate cell trajectories during zebrafish early embryogenesis based on 3D+time photonic microscopy imaging data. To remove the collective flow motion and focus on fluctuations, we analyze the deviations of pairs of neighboring cells. These deviations resemble Brownian motion and reveal different behaviors between pairs containing daughter cells

Mechanochemical models for calcium waves in embryonic epithelia [PDF]
In embryogenesis, epithelial cells, acting as individual entities or as coordinated aggregates in a tissue, exhibit strong coupling between chemical signalling and mechanical responses to internally or externally applied stresses. Intercellular communication in combination with such coordination of morphogenetic movements can lead to drastic ...

Galectins: a key intersection between glycobiology and immunology
Galectins are a family of evolutionarily conserved animal lectins, widely distributed from lower invertebrates to mammals. They share sequence and structure similarities in the carbohydrate recognition domain and specificity for polylactosamine-enriched ...

Come together over me: Cells that form the dermatocranium and chondrocranium in mice
Abstract Most bone develops either by intramembranous ossification where bone forms within a soft connective tissue, or by endochondral ossification by way of a cartilage anlagen or model. Bones of the skull can form endochondrally or intramembranously or represent a combination of the two types of ossification.

Respiratory metabolism of developing eggs of Schistocerca gregaria has been individually monitored by means of scanning microrespirography. The freshly oviposited eggs consumed 7 nl of O2 /min./egg (50 µl O2/g/h) while the pharate 1st instar larvae ...
