Female Sex Development and Reproductive Duct Formation Depend on Wnt4a in Zebrafish. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In laboratory strains of zebrafish, sex determination occurs in the absence of a typical sex chromosome and it is not known what regulates the proportion of animals that develop as males or females.

Effects of Transfected Human and Mouse SRY/Sry Genes upon the Expression of Hypothetical SRY-Cascade Genes in Cultured Mouse Sertoli Cell Line, TM-4.

open access: yesJournal of Reproduction and Development, 1996
In mammals, the SRY (the sex determining region on the Y; Sry in the mouse) gene is responsible for the function of TDF (testis determining factor; Tdy in the mouse) locus, and plays a key role in the sex determination. In the mouse, the Sry open reading frame (ORF) is flanked at either end by a large inverted repeat, causing the formation of ...

Copy number variations of five Y chromosome genes in donkeys [PDF]

open access: yesArchives Animal Breeding, 2017
In mammals, the Y chromosome plays a pivotal role in male sex determination and is essential for normal sperm production. A number of studies were conducted on Y chromosome genes of various species and identified single-copy and multi-copy genes ...

Disturbed Ovarian Differentiation in XX;SRY-Negative Dogs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In a mammal, at the beginning of its development, the gonad is bipotential. The shift into a male or female pathway is coordinated by the sex chromosomal complement, which triggers a series of genetic pathways signaling the developmental pattern of the ...

Sex determination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Multicellular animals are a diverse lot, with widely varied body plans and lifestyles. One feature they share, however, is a nearly universal reliance on sexual reproduction for species propagation.

Quantitative profiling of selective Sox/POU pairing on hundreds of sequences in parallel by Coop-seq [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
© The Author(s) 2016. Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of Nucleic Acids Research. Cooperative binding of transcription factors is known to be important in the regulation of gene expression programs conferring cellular identities.

Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 increases metastatic potential and aggressiveness in colorectal cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...

EDNRB‐dependent endothelin signaling reduces proliferation and promotes proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition in gliomas

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated

Sry delivery to the adrenal medulla increases blood pressure and adrenal medullary tyrosine hydroxylase of normotensive WKY rats

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2007
Background Our laboratory has shown that a locus on the SHR Y chromosome increases blood pressure (BP) in the SHR rat and in WKY rats that had the SHR Y chromosome locus crossed into their genome (SHR/y rat).

Mixed gonadal dysgenesis in 45,X Turner syndrome with gene [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2015
Turner syndrome is the most common chromosomal disorder in girls. Various phenotypic features show depending upon karyotype from normal female through ambiguous genitalia to male.
