The Role of Wnt/β-catenin Signaling Pathway in Rat Primordial Germ Cells Reprogramming and Induction into Pluripotent State [PDF]
Journal of Advanced Biomedical Sciences, 2014 Primordial Germ Cells (PGCs) are unipotent precursors of the gametes. PGCs can give rise to a type of pluripotent stem cells in vitro that are called embryonic germ (EG) cells. PGCs can also acquire such pluripotency in vivo and generate teratomas. Under

Germ Cell Specification and Migration in Drosophila and beyond [PDF]
, 2004 The passage of an individual's genome to future generations is essential for the maintenance of species and is mediated by highly specialized cells, the germ cells.

Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.Effects of dynamic agrivoltaic semitransparency controls on cucumber seedling growth are assessed for this study using a micro‐cell photovoltaic panel. Seedling growth with 9:30–14:30 agrivoltaic shading is comparable to that without shading. The dynamic shading regulates the electrical energy and crop production allocation.

Retinoic acid-stimulated ERK1/2 pathway regulates meiotic initiation in cultured fetal germ cells.
PLoS ONE, 2019 In murine fetal germ cells, retinoic acid (RA) is an extrinsic cue for meiotic initiation that stimulates transcriptional activation of the Stimulated by retinoic acid gene 8 (Stra8), which is required for entry of germ cells into meiotic prophase I ...

LIN28 is selectively expressed by primordial and pre-meiotic germ cells in the human fetal ovary.
Stem Cells and Development, 2012 Germ cell development requires timely transition from primordial germ cell (PGC) self-renewal to meiotic differentiation. This is associated with widespread changes in gene expression, including downregulation of stem cell-associated genes, such as OCT4 ...

GASZ promotes germ cell derivation from embryonic stem cells [PDF]
, 2013 Primordial germ cells (PGCs) are the first germ-line population that forms from the proximal epiblast of the developing embryo. Despite their biological importance, the regulatory networks whereby PGCs arise, migrate, and differentiate into gametes ...

Advanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.This review covers the mechanical forces experienced by immune cells through cell–cell and cell–extracellular matrix interactions and how these forces influence their receptors and functions. These relationships between forces and cellular functions can be exploited using engineering techniques to modify the physical properties of materials for novel ...

Wt1 functions in the development of germ cells in addition to somatic cell lineages of the testis [PDF]
, 2004 The Wilms' tumor suppressor gene, Wt1, encodes a transcription factor critical for development of the urogenital system. To identify lineages within the developing urogenital system that have a cell-autonomous requirement for Wt1, chimeric mice were ...

Loss of NR2F6 Protects from Salmonella Typhimurium Infection
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Loss of nuclear receptor NR2F6 reduces tissue‐resident macrophage populations. Nr2f6‐deficient mice are protected from weight loss and bacterial load during infection with Salmonella Typhimurium. Pro‐inflammatory cytokines and iron levels are altered in infected Nr2f6‐deficient mice.
