Sox8 is essential for vertebrate gastrulation

open access: yesEMBO Reports
Gastrulation is a fundamental developmental process during which germ layers are formed and the body axes are defined by the precise orchestration of cell movements and fate specification. Here, we identify the SOXE transcription factor Sox8 as a pivotal

Standardised imaging pipeline for phenotyping mouse laterality defects and associated heart malformations, at multiple scales and multiple stages

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2019
Laterality defects are developmental disorders resulting from aberrant left/right patterning. In the most severe cases, such as in heterotaxy, they are associated with complex malformations of the heart.

Parameter estimation and inference for stochastic reaction-diffusion systems: application to morphogenesis in D. melanogaster [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Reaction-diffusion systems are frequently used in systems biology to model developmental and signalling processes. In many applications, count numbers of the diffusing molecular species are very low, leading to the need to explicitly model ...

Endothelial Cells Angiogenesis in Sulfated Glycosaminoglycan (GAG) Hydrogels Enhanced by Bioactive Glass‐Released Ions

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A mechanically tunable hydrogel composed of gelatin, chondroitin sulfate and laminin promotes angiogenesis in vitro without the supplement of growth factors. Endothelial cells morphogenesis was further enhanced by medium conditioned with bioactive glass 58S‐released ions (Ca and Si), thus offering a promising strategy to vascularize 3D tissue ...

Deep learning-based detection of murine congenital heart defects from µCT scans

open access: yesCommunications Biology
Micro-computed tomography (μCT) provides 3D images of congenital heart defects (CHD) in mice. However, diagnosing CHD from μCT scans is time-consuming and requires clinical expertise. Here, we present a deep learning approach to automatically segment and

MAP7 regulates axon morphogenesis by recruiting kinesin-1 to microtubules and modulating organelle transport. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Neuronal cell morphogenesis depends on proper regulation of microtubule-based transport, but the underlying mechanisms are not well understood.

Multi-Level Modeling of Quotation Families Morphogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper investigates cultural dynamics in social media by examining the proliferation and diversification of clearly-cut pieces of content: quoted texts. In line with the pioneering work of Leskovec et al. and Simmons et al.

Regulation of Cdc42 and its effectors in epithelial morphogenesis

open access: yesJournal of Cell Science, 2019
Cdc42 – a member of the small Rho GTPase family – regulates cell polarity across organisms from yeast to humans. It is an essential regulator of polarized morphogenesis in epithelial cells, through coordination of apical membrane morphogenesis, lumen ...

Astrocyte‐Guided Maturation of Neural Constructs in a Modular Biosynthetic Hydrogel for Biohybrid Neurotechnologies

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A modular biosynthetic PVA–gelatin hydrogel crosslinked via visible‐light thiol‐ene chemistry is engineered as a coating for neural electrodes. Optimizing matrix composition and mechanical properties enables the hydrogel to support astrocytic populations that guide neural differentiation and functional maturation.

A specialized bone marrow microenvironment for fetal haematopoiesis

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
The colonization of bone marrow by haematopoietic stem and progenitor cells is critical for lifelong blood cell formation. Here the authors report distinct features of fetal bone marrow and show that artery-derived signals promote haematopoietic ...
