Conceptus signals for establishment and maintenance of pregnancy
Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2004 Establishment and maintenance of pregnancy results from signaling by the conceptus (embryo/fetus and associated extraembryonic membranes) and requires progesterone produced by the corpus luteum (CL).

Liquid Metal Microrobots for Magnetically Guided Transvascular Navigation
Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 20, 7 April 2026.Liquid metal‐based microrobots combine magnetic steering, intrinsic X‐ray visibility and softness, to navigate blood vessels even against flow. Under clinically relevant magnetic fields, liquid metal microrobots roll along vessel walls, cross endothelial barriers, and accumulate in target tissues.

Birth Defects Research, Volume 118, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT Background Animal models remain essential for understanding developmental toxicology, providing insights into how in utero exposures affect fetal and placental outcomes. Litter‐bearing species are widely used due to their efficiency and reproducibility, but conventional approaches often summarize outcomes at the litter level, masking ...

The Roles of Macrophage Lineage Cells (MLCs) in Brain Aging
CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 4, April 2026.This review highlights the critical role of macrophage lineage cells (MLCs), including microglia, border‐associated macrophages (BAMs), and CNS‐infiltrating monocyte‐derived macrophages (MDMs), in brain aging. It explores the drivers and propagation of MLCs senescence and discusses potential therapeutic strategies targeting MLCs senescence.

A comprehensive embryonic staging series of the turtle Trachemys scripta
Developmental Dynamics, Volume 255, Issue 3, Page 260-320, March 2026.Abstract Background Turtles hold a unique place in vertebrate evolutionary history, making them critical assets in embryology research. Yet, they remain understudied as potential model organisms in the field. Here, to support experimental manipulations with turtle embryos, we have created a complete normal table of development for comprehensive ...

Developmental potential of mouse embryos without extraembryonic membranes in modified organ culture.
Collegium antropologicum, 2004 The long-term stationary culture of postimplanatation embryos without extraembryonic membranes is a method to assess their developmental potential in vitro. The method was almost exclusively used on rat embryos, while mouse embryos were considered unsuitable due to their poor differentiation.

The X Factor in Immunity: Sex Differences Shaped by the X Chromosome
Immunological Reviews, Volume 338, Issue 1, March 2026.ABSTRACT There are sex differences with immune responses where females exhibit stronger immune responses compared to males. Both sex hormones and sex chromosome differences between males and females contribute to the observed sex differences with innate and adaptive immune cell composition and function.

Expression of calcium transporting proteins by the extraembryonic membranes of squamate reptiles
The FASEB Journal, 2007 Eighty percent of squamate reptiles (snakes and lizards) lay eggs; however, over 100 species bear live young. The evolutionary transition from oviparity to viviparity involves loss of the eggshell, an important source of calcium for developing embryos.
