Spatial and temporal mechanisms of cell fate determination in the developing CNS [PDF]
The generation of neural cell diversity in the developing central nervous system relies on mechanisms that provide spatial and temporal information to neural progenitor cells.

Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common cancer affecting men, with increasing global mortality and morbidity rates. Despite the progress in the diagnosis and treatment of PCa, patient outcomes remain poor, and novel therapeutic targets for PCa are ...

Introduction: The articulating ends of limb bones have precise morphology and asymmetry that ensures proper joint function. Growth differentiation factor 5 (Gdf5) is a secreted morphogen involved in cartilage and bone development that contributes to the ...

The homeodomain factor Gbx1 is required for locomotion and cell specification in the dorsal spinal cord [PDF]
Dorsal horn neurons in the spinal cord integrate and relay sensory information to higher brain centers. These neurons are organized in specific laminae and different transcription factors are involved in their specification.

Functional Characterization of LMX1B Mutations Associated with Nail-Patella Syndrome [PDF]
Nail-patella syndrome (NPS) is an autosomal dominant disease characterized by dysplastic nails, absent or hypoplastic patellae, elbow dysplasia, and nephropathy. Recently, it was shown that NPS is the result of heterozygous mutations in the LIM-homeodomain gene, LMX1B.

Ectopic Wnt/beta-catenin signaling induces neurogenesis in the spinal cord and hindbrain floor plate. [PDF]
The most ventral structure of the developing neural tube, the floor plate (FP), differs in neurogenic capacity along the neuraxis. The FP is largely non-neurogenic at the hindbrain and spinal cord levels, but generates large numbers of dopamine (mDA ...

Mispositioned Neurokinin-1 Receptor-Expressing Neurons Underlie Heat Hyperalgesia in Disabled-1 Mutant Mice. [PDF]
Reelin (Reln) and Disabled-1 (Dab1) participate in the Reln-signaling pathway and when either is deleted, mutant mice have the same spinally mediated behavioral abnormalities, increased sensitivity to noxious heat and a profound loss in mechanical ...

The C. elegans LIM homeobox gene lin-11 specifies multiple cell fates during vulval development [PDF]
LIM homeobox family members regulate a variety of cell fate choices during animal development. In C. elegans, mutations in the LIM homeobox gene lin-11 have previously been shown to alter the cell division pattern of a subset of the 2° lineage vulval ...

Somatic cell reprogramming for Parkinson's disease treatment
The fundamental purpose of cell reprogramming to treat Parkinson's disease is to generate dopaminergic neurons (DAN) and do transplantation. There are two ways to accomplish this. One method is to induce cells into induced DA neurons (iDAN) directly or to induce cells into induced pluripotent stem cells and ultimately into iDAN in vitro. Another option
