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 ...

Ho-Bouldoires, Sollier, Zamfirov and Broders-Bondon et al. show that high frequency pulsatile mechanical stresses maintain the physiological level of mice colon stem cells through the mechanosensitive Ret kinase and that Ret activation is elevated in ...

Identification of novel chondroitin proteoglycans in Caenorhabditis elegans: embryonic cell division depends on CPG-1 and CPG-2. [PDF]
Vertebrates produce multiple chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans that play important roles in development and tissue mechanics. In the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, the chondroitin chains lack sulfate but nevertheless play essential roles in embryonic ...

Correlation with basic differentiation processes of neurons [PDF]
The development of the spinal cord involves the proliferation of neurons, their migration to well-defined areas, fiber outgrowth and synapse formation. The present study was designed to correlate the spatiotemporal pattern of expression of synaptophysin,

Developmental potential of aneuploid human embryos cultured beyond implantation
Aneuploidy, abnormal chromosome number, is a major cause of early pregnancy loss. Here the authors determine the extent of post-implantation development of human embryos with common aneuploidies in culture, finding developmental arrest of monosomy 21 ...

Liver and pancreas cells arise from a common endoderm progenitor in the embryo, but what regulates their cell fate is unclear. Here, the authors show that expression of the Three-Amino-acid-Loop-Extension (TALE) homeobox TG-interacting factor 2 (TGIF2 ...

The role of spatial averaging in the precision of gene expression patterns [PDF]
During embryonic development, differentiating cells respond via gene expression to positional cues from morphogen gradients. While gene expression is often highly erratic, embryonic development is precise. We show by theory and simulations that diffusion

Embryonic POU5F1 is Required for Expanded Bovine Blastocyst Formation. [PDF]
POU5F1 is a transcription factor and master regulator of cell pluripotency with indispensable roles in early embryo development and cell lineage specification.

FoxO1 in embryonic development [PDF]
Establishment of the maternal-fetal circulation during embryonic development is a fundamental process required for effective exchange of nutrients, waste products and signaling factors critical to all subsequent stages of fetal growth and development.
