Retinoids in Embryonal Development [PDF]
The key role of vitamin A in embryonal development is reviewed. Special emphasis is given to the physiological action of retinoids, as evident from the retinoid ligand knockout models. Retinoid metabolism in embryonic tissues and teratogenic consequences of retinoid administration at high doses are presented.

Reconstructing embryonic development [PDF]
AbstractNovel approaches to bio‐imaging and automated computational image processing allow the design of truly quantitative studies in developmental biology. Cell behavior, cell fate decisions, cell interactions during tissue morphogenesis, and gene expression dynamics can be analyzed in vivo for entire complex organisms and throughout embryonic ...

Regulation and Function of Chemokines at the Maternal–Fetal Interface
Successful pregnancy requires the maternal immune system to tolerate the semi-allogeneic embryo. A good trophoblast function is also essential for successful embryo implantation and subsequent placental development.

The Conceivable Functions of Protein Ubiquitination and Deubiquitination in Reproduction
Protein ubiquitination with general existence in virtually all eukaryotic cells serves as a significant post-translational modification of cellular proteins, which leads to the degradation of proteins via the ubiquitin–proteasome system. Deubiquitinating

Magnesium and embryonic development [PDF]
Important for energy metabolism, neurotransmission, bone stability, and other cellular functions, Mg(2+) has well-established and undisputedly critical roles in adult tissues. Its contributions to early embryonic development are less clearly understood.

Robo signalling controls pancreatic progenitor identity by regulating Tead transcription factors
A role for Slit/Robo signalling in pancreas development has not been defined. Here, the authors generate Robo1/Robo2 knockout mice to identify both as needed for establishing initial pancreatic cell identity as well as for proliferation and survival of ...

Mechanobiology of Embryonic Limb Development [PDF]
Abstract: Considerable evidence exists to support the hypothesis that mechanical forces have an essential role in healthy embryonic skeletal development. Clinical observations and experimental data indicate the importance of muscle contractions for limb development.
