Homeobox genes in Caenorhabditis elegans

Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 1993
It is estimated that approximately 60 homeobox genes occur in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. These genes are required for specifying the cell fate of both precursor and terminally differentiated cells. In some cases, highly specific cell functions, such as migration pattern or synaptic connectivity, require the action of these genes.

Hemangiomas and Homeobox Gene Expression

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2006
Hemangiomas are the most common benign tumor of childhood. Clinical management is limited primarily to observation. Non-surgical treatment modalities have had mixed results and with morbid side effects. Improved understanding of angiogenesis over the last two decades is helping to delineate differences between various vascular tumors.

MEIS homeobox genes in neuroblastoma

Cancer Letters, 2005
The common pediatric tumor neuroblastoma originates from primitive neural crest-derived precursor cells of the peripheral nervous system. Neuroblastoma especially affects very young children, and can already be present at birth. Its early onset and cellular origin predict the involvement of developmental control genes in neuroblastoma etiology.

A hox/hom homeobox gene in sponges

Gene, 1995
The hox/hom homeobox genes code for DNA-binding proteins that confer positional information during animal development; these genes have been found in a wide range of triploblasts and in cnidarians. We report here the identification of a hox/hom gene and two other homeobox genes in the genomes of sponges.

Homeobox HOXA10 Gene Analysis in Cryptorchidism

Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2004
In male mice, targeted disruption of the homeobox gene hoxa10 causes cryptorchidism and infertility. Genetic alterations in exon 1 of HOXA10 have been found in a high number of boys with cryptorchidism.To evaluate whether mutations of HOXA10 can be a common cause of cryptorchidism.Genomic DNA was extracted from 18 patients with cryptorchidism (age 7-44

Homeobox genes and the vertebrate head

Development, 1988
ABSTRACT Several Drosophila genes important in the control of embryonic development contain a characteristic sequence of DNA, known as the homeobox. Homeobox sequences are also present in a family of vertebrate genes, which may therefore have regulatory roles during vertebrate embryogenesis.
