An Lmx1b-miR135a2 regulatory circuit modulates Wnt1/Wnt signaling and determines the size of the midbrain dopaminergic progenitor pool. [PDF]
MicroRNAs regulate gene expression in diverse physiological scenarios. Their role in the control of morphogen related signaling pathways has been less studied, particularly in the context of embryonic Central Nervous System (CNS) development.

Nail-patella syndrome (NPS) is characterized by nail dysplasia, absent/hypoplastic patellae, chronic kidney disease, and glaucoma and can be caused by haploinsufficiency of LMX1B; however, not all patients harbor pathogenic LMX1B mutations.

LMX1B-associated nephropathy that showed myelin figures on electron microscopy [PDF]
The mutation of LIM homeodomain transcription factor LMX1B gene leads to nail-patella syndrome (NPS), which is characterized by dysplastic nails, hypoplastic patellae, iliac horns and nephropathy. The characteristic renal histological finding of NPS nephropathy is irregular thickening of the glomerular basement membrane with patchy lucent areas ...

Nail-patella syndrome (NPS) is a rare autosomal-dominant disorder characterized by the classic tetrad of absent or hypoplastic finger and toe nails, absent or hypoplastic patella, skeletal deformities involving the elbow joints, and iliac horns.

The tetrapod limb develops asymmetrically along several axes. Lmx1b is responsible for dorsalization of the distal limb; knockout (KO) mice show ventral‐ventral limb patterning and reduction of the scapula, a dorsal structure of the limb girdle. However, the mechanism and downstream targets of Lmx1b are still unknown.

A Case Report of Nail-Patella Syndrome
Nail-patella syndrome (NPS) is a hereditary rare disease that can involve fingernail, patella, elbow, and iliac bones. In this article, we report a case of a girl-9 and 1 quarter years old who had asthmatic contractures in both elbows, thumbnail ...

Postnatal maintenance of the 5-Ht1a-Pet1 autoregulatory loop by serotonin in the raphe nuclei of the brainstem [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Despite the importance of 5-HT1A as a major target for the action of several anxiolytics/antidepressant drugs, little is known about its regulation in central serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) neurons.

Detection of genes regulated by Lmx1b during limb dorsalization [PDF]
Lmx1b is a homeodomain transcription factor that regulates dorsal identity during limb development. Lmx1b knockout (KO) mice develop distal ventral–ventral limbs. Although induction of Lmx1b is linked to Wnt7a expression in the dorsal limb ectoderm, the downstream targets of Lmx1b that accomplish limb dorsalization are unknown.
