The development of the human notochord. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
The notochord is a major regulator of embryonic patterning in vertebrates and abnormal notochordal development is associated with a variety of birth defects in man.

Conserved enhancers control notochord expression of vertebrate Brachyury [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
The cell type-specific expression of key transcription factors is central to development and disease. Brachyury/T/TBXT is a major transcription factor for gastrulation, tailbud patterning, and notochord formation; however, how its expression is ...

Tunicates push the limits of animal evo-devo [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2011
The phylum to which humans belong, Chordata, takes its name from one of the major shared derived features of the group, the notochord. All chordates have a notochord, at least during embryogenesis, and there is little doubt about notochord homology at ...

Notochord Injury Assays that Stimulate Transcriptional Responses in Zebrafish Larvae [PDF]

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2018
Zebrafish have become an increasingly important model organism in the field of wound healing and regenerative medicine, due to their high regenerative capacity coupled with high-resolution imaging in living animals.

Reaction wavefront theory of notochord segment patterning [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2022
The vertebrate axis is segmented into repetitive structures, the vertebrae. In fish, these segmented structures are thought to form from the paraxial mesoderm and the adjacent notochord.

Brachyury, Foxa2 and the cis-Regulatory Origins of the Notochord. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2015
A main challenge of modern biology is to understand how specific constellations of genes are activated to differentiate cells and give rise to distinct tissues. This study focuses on elucidating how gene expression is initiated in the notochord, an axial

Persistent Notochord in a Fetus with COL2A1 Mutation [PDF]

open access: yesCase Reports in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2015
Multiple anomalies including micromelia, poor mineralization of the vertebrae, and a persistent notochord were identified on second trimester ultrasound in a fetus with a COL2A1 mutation.

Transformed notochordal cells trigger chronic wounds in zebrafish, destabilizing the vertebral column and bone homeostasis

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2021
Notochordal cells play a pivotal role in vertebral column patterning, contributing to the formation of the inner architecture of intervertebral discs (IVDs).

A Zebrafish Mutant in the Extracellular Matrix Protein Gene efemp1 as a Model for Spinal Osteoarthritis

open access: yesAnimals, 2023
Osteoarthritis is a degenerative articular disease affecting mainly aging animals and people. The extracellular matrix protein Efemp1 was previously shown to have higher turn-over and increased secretion in the blood serum, urine, and subchondral bone of

Quantitative Phosphoproteomics Reveals the Requirement of DYRK1-Mediated Phosphorylation of Ion Transport- and Cell Junction-Related Proteins for Notochord Lumenogenesis in Ascidian

open access: yesCells, 2023
The dual-specificity tyrosine phosphorylation-regulated kinase (DYRK1) phosphorylates diverse substrates involved in various cellular processes. Here, we found that blocking the kinase activity of DYRK1 inhibited notochord development and lumenogenesis ...
