Multiple chromosomal rearrangements structured the ancestral vertebrate Hox-bearing protochromosomes. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2009
While the proposal that large-scale genome expansions occurred early in vertebrate evolution is widely accepted, the exact mechanisms of the expansion--such as a single or multiple rounds of whole genome duplication, bloc chromosome duplications, large ...

Chromosomal Abnormalities, Drug Sensitivity and Resistance in Hematological Malignancies: A Comprehensive Overview by the Francophone Group of Hematological Cytogenetics (GFCH)

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chromosomal abnormalities have a major clinical impact on hematological malignancies, particularly with regard to treatment strategies. To preserve and consolidate fundamental knowledge in this rapidly evolving field, the Francophone Group of Hematological Cytogenetics (Groupe Francophone de Cytogénétique Hématologique, GFCH) conducted a ...

The role of highly conserved non-coding DNA sequences in vertebrate development and evolution [PDF]

, 2010
PhDComparisons between vertebrate genome sequences, from mammals to fishes, have revealed thousands of conserved non-coding elements (CNEs) that are associated with developmental genes.

Drosophila male genitalia rotation depends on permissive remodeling of the posterior abdomen

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background One of the most characteristic morphogenetic processes in Drosophila is the 360° rotation of the male pupal genital disc. This movement is driven by the myosin Myo1D, whose expression in the genital disc is controlled by the Hox gene Abdominal‐B (Abd‐B).

A general scenario of Hox gene inventory variation among major sarcopterygian lineages

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2011
Background Hox genes are known to play a key role in shaping the body plan of metazoans. Evolutionary dynamics of these genes is therefore essential in explaining patterns of evolutionary diversity.

Hox Gene Collinearity May Be Related to Noether Theory on Symmetry and Its Linked Conserved Quantity

J, 2020
Hox Gene Collinearity (HGC) is a fundamental property that controls the development of many animal species, including vertebrates. In the Hox gene clusters, the genes are located in a sequential order Hox1, Hox2, Hox3, etc., along the 3’ to 5’ direction ...

A shining starlet: Nematostella vectensis as a model for developmental, regenerative, and comparative biology

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract The sea anemone, Nematostella vectensis, has been used as a model organism in developmental biology studies for many years. This estuarine species has the notable capacity to regenerate its full body plan from small pieces throughout life. Nematostella have been described as having a great degree of cellular plasticity.

HOXA10 controls osteoblastogenesis by directly activating bone regulatory and phenotypic genes [PDF]

, 2007
HOXA10 is necessary for embryonic patterning of skeletal elements, but its function in bone formation beyond this early developmental stage is unknown. Here we show that HOXA10 contributes to osteogenic lineage determination through activation of Runx2 ...

Anticancer potential of berberine: Molecular pathways and current clinical trial perspectives

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Cancer is constantly rising mortality rates due to its late prognosis, poor management, and expensive treatment. Multi‐sectoral approaches for cancer management include hygienic practices, synthetic drug exploitation, radiation therapy, and diet modifications.

Micromanagement of Drosophila Post-Embryonic Development by Hox Genes

Journal of Developmental Biology, 2022
Hox genes function early in development to determine regional identity in animals. Consequently, the loss or gain of Hox gene expression can change this identity and cause homeotic transformations.
