Widespread employment of conserved C. elegans homeobox genes in neuronal identity specification
PLoS Genetics, 2022 Homeobox genes are prominent regulators of neuronal identity, but the extent to which their function has been probed in animal nervous systems remains limited.

Homeobox Genes and Hepatocellular Carcinoma [PDF]
Cancers, 2019 Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the sixth most common type of cancer, and is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths each year. It involves a multi-step progression and is strongly associated with chronic inflammation induced by the intake of environmental toxins and/or viral infections (i.e., hepatitis B and C viruses).

Genome-Wide Analysis of Homeobox Gene Family in Legumes: Identification, Gene Duplication and Expression Profiling [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Homeobox genes encode transcription factors that are known to play a major role in different aspects of plant growth and development. In the present study, we identified homeobox genes belonging to 14 different classes in five legume species, including ...

Identification of Novel Genetic Variants Related to Trabecular Bone Score in Community-Dwelling Older Adults [PDF]
Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2020 Background As the genetic variants of trabecular bone microarchitecture are not well-understood, we performed a genome-wide association study to identify genetic determinants of bone microarchitecture analyzed by trabecular bone score (TBS).

Genetic Regulation of Vertebrate Forebrain Development by Homeobox Genes
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022 Forebrain development in vertebrates is regulated by transcription factors encoded by homeobox, bHLH and forkhead gene families throughout the progressive and overlapping stages of neural induction and patterning, regional specification and generation of

HOXA Amplification Defines a Genetically Distinct Subset of Angiosarcomas
Biomolecules, 2022 Angiosarcoma is a rare, devastating malignancy with few curative options for disseminated disease. We analyzed a recently published genomic data set of 48 angiosarcomas and noticed recurrent amplifications of HOXA-cluster genes in 33% of patients.
