Expression of activin subunits and receptors in the developing human ovary:activin A promotes germ cell survival and proliferation before primordial follicle formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The formation of the essential functional unit of the ovary, the primordial follicle, occurs during fetal life in humans. Factors regulating oogonial proliferation and interaction with somatic cells before primordial follicle formation are largely ...

Somatostatin receptor 4 (SSTR4) is a tumor suppressor in cutaneous and head & neck squamous cell carcinomas

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study identifies somatostatin receptor 4 (Sstr4) as a critical tumor suppressor against skin and head/neck cancers (HNSCC, cSCC, and BCC). The loss of Sstr4 removes a check on cell growth, causing hyperactivation of the MAPK‐ERK signaling pathway (↑).

Protocol for In Utero Fetal-to-Fetal Kidney Transplantation in Rats

open access: yesBio-Protocol
Congenital renal disorders, such as the Potter sequence, result from renal dysgenesis. To explore a prenatal therapeutic approach for fetuses with kidney insufficiency, we established an in utero transplantation protocol using donor fetal kidneys ...

Bridging the gap: a genetically validated avian chorioallantoic membrane platform for investigation of spontaneous circulating tumor cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We established the avian chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay as a scalable in vivo model for studying circulating tumor cells (CTCs). Human gastrointestinal tumors spontaneously released genetically validated CTCs that were detected across multiple platforms, demonstrating that the CAM model provides an accessible tool for investigating early cancer ...

A comparative study of the potential for human retinal pigment epithelium utilising an embryonic chick model of the phenomenon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells of several species, including: chicken, rat, mouse and newt, have been observed to undergo a phenomenon known as transdifferentiation.

Endoderm Generates Endothelial Cells during Liver Development

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2014
Organogenesis requires expansion of the embryonic vascular plexus that migrates into developing organs through a process called angiogenesis. Mesodermal progenitors are thought to derive endothelial cells (ECs) that contribute to both embryonic ...

Optimizing photoactivation of PA‐mCherry for optical pooled CRISPR screens

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Photoactivatable PA‐mCherry finds widespread use to optically tag individual cells. However, confocal 405 nm UV laser‐scanning (normal scan) is much less efficient than widefield UV illumination, limiting the use of PA‐mCherry on confocal instruments. We remedy this limitation by reporting that rapid and repeated confocal scanning with a low‐intensity,

Deriving bovine embryonic stem-like cells in defined conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The first embryonic stem ES cell line was isolated from mouse in 1981 (Evans and Kaufman 1981; Martin1981). However, ESCs are only available in rodent species.

The generation of live offspring from vitrified oocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Oocyte cryopreservation is extremely beneficial for assisted reproductive technologies, the treatment of infertility and biotechnology and offers a viable alternative to embryo freezing and ovarian grafting approaches for the generation of embryonic stem
