Identification of early onset pre-eclampsia related key genes via bioinformatic analysis
Background: Pre-eclampsia is a common pregnancy-specific disease. In this study, we used comprehensive bioinformatics to screen key genes related to the development of pre-eclampsia and explore their potential connections. Methods: Two data sets GSE44711

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.

Pre-implantation mouse embryos cultured In vitro under different oxygen concentrations show altered ultrastructures [PDF]
Assisted Reproductive Technologies routinely utilize different culture media and oxygen (O2) concentrations to culture human embryos. Overall, embryos cultured under physiological O2 tension (5%) have improved development compared to embryos cultured ...

Characterizing the zebrafish organizer: microsurgical analysis at the early-shield stage [PDF]
The appearance of the embryonic shield, a slight thickening at the leading edge of the blastoderm during the formation of the germ ring, is one of the first signs of dorsoventral polarity in the zebrafish embryo.

Tbx20 Is Required in Mid-Gestation Cardiomyocytes and Plays a Central Role in Atrial Development. [PDF]
RationaleMutations in the transcription factor TBX20 (T-box 20) are associated with congenital heart disease. Germline ablation of Tbx20 results in abnormal heart development and embryonic lethality by embryonic day 9.5.
