Metamorphosis

, 2011
Metamorphosis – Christin Bolewski (2007; 5:32) ‘Growth gets confronted with destruction, aesthetic beauty with rotten ugliness.’ Using the possibilities of modern video processing and animation techniques the motif of a traditional still life gets ...

Thyroid Hormone Receptor Is Essential for Larval Epithelial Apoptosis and Adult Epithelial Stem Cell Development but Not Adult Intestinal Morphogenesis during Xenopus tropicalis Metamorphosis

Cells, 2021
Vertebrate postembryonic development is regulated by thyroid hormone (T3). Of particular interest is anuran metamorphosis, which offers several unique advantages for studying the role of T3 and its two nuclear receptor genes, TRα and TRβ, during ...

Identification and differential expression of microRNAs during metamorphosis of the Japanese flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus). [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
BACKGROUND: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of endogenous small non-coding RNAs of 20-25 nucleotides that play a key role in diverse biological processes. Japanese flounder undergo dramatic metamorphosis in their early development.

Enzymatic activity of bone markers on Lithobates catesbeianus (Shaw, 1802) growth during the ossification process

Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2021
In order to better understand the ossification processes in anurans our study was carried out on tadpoles and adults of Lithobates catesbeianus. In this sense, we characterized the kinetic properties of alkaline phosphatase with p-nitrophenylphosphatase (

Relationship between serum thyroid hormones and their associated metabolites, and gene expression bioindicators in the back skin of Rana [Lithobates] catesbeiana tadpoles and frogs during metamorphosis

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
Anuran metamorphosis is characterized by profound morphological changes including remodeling of tissues and organs. This transition is initiated by thyroid hormones (THs).

Identification and differential regulation of microRNAs during thyroid hormone-dependent metamorphosis in Microhyla fissipes

BMC Genomics, 2018
Background Anuran metamorphosis, which is obligatorily initiated and sustained by thyroid hormone (TH), is a dramatic example of extensive morphological, biochemical and cellular changes occurring during post-embryonic development.

Temporal and spatial transcriptomic dynamics across brain development in Xenopus laevis tadpoles

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2021
Amphibian metamorphosis is a transitional period that involves significant changes in the cell-type populations and biological processes occurring in the brain.

Morphological shape generation through user-controlled group metamorphosis [PDF]

, 2013
Morphological shape design is interpreted in this paper as a search for new shapes from a particular application domain represented by a set of selected shape instances.

Virus Membrane Fusion Proteins: Biological Machines that Undergo a Metamorphosis

Bioscience Reports, 2000
Fusion proteins from a group of widely disparate viruses, including the paramyxovirus F protein, the HIV and SIV gp160 proteins, the retroviral Env protein, the Ebola virus Gp, and the influenza virus haemagglutinin, share a number of common features. All contain multiple glycosylation sites, and must be trimeric and undergo proteolytic cleavage to be ...
