Derivation of Mouse Dome‐Shaped Trophoblast Stem Cells With Low Heterogeneity From Blastocysts

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Here, Liu et al. report the generation of mouse dome‐shaped trophoblast stem cells (dTSCs) with low heterogeneity and autonomous differentiation potential. dTSCs robustly generate all trophoblast lineages in vitro and contribute to the placenta in vivo, providing a refined model for studying trophoblast development and related disorders.

The trimeric Shu complex in C. elegans is an ATPase that remodels RAD51 filaments in the homologous recombination‐associated DNA damage response

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The C. elegans Shu complex (RFS‐1/RIP‐1/SWS‐1) is a DNA‐dependent ATPase that regulates RAD‐51 filaments during homologous recombination. The trimer preferentially binds 5′‐exposed DNA, remodels RAD‐51 filaments via ATP hydrolysis, and stabilizes filaments through ATP binding.

3D transparent technology displays the developmental patterns of ductus arteriosus morphology in chicken embryos before and after birth

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
At the eighth week of human embryonic development, 3D transparent imaging enables clear visualization of the outflow tract's morphological features, revealing its anatomical components in detail. Abstract The ductus arteriosus (DA) is a critical fetal vascular structure that shunts blood from the pulmonary artery to the aorta, bypassing the non ...

Antibodies to acetylcholine receptor in parous women with myasthenia: evidence for immunization by fetal antigen [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The weakness in myasthenia gravis (MG) is mediated by autoantibodies against adult muscle acetylcholine receptors (AChR) at the neuromuscular junction; most of these antibodies also bind to fetal AChR, which is present in the thymus.
