The prostate is a male exocrine gland that secretes components of the seminal fluid. In men, prostate tumors are one of the most prevalent cancers. Studies on the development of the prostate have given a better understanding of the processes and genes that are important in the formation of this organ and have provided insights into the mechanisms of ...

Organoids are three-dimensional structures that self-organize from human pluripotent stem cells or primary tissue, potentially serving as a traceable and manipulatable platform to facilitate our understanding of organogenesis. Despite the ongoing advancement in generating organoids of diverse systems, biological applications of in vitro generated ...

Developmental lung biology is a field that has the potential for significant human impact: lung disease at the extremes of age continues to cause major morbidity and mortality worldwide. Understanding how the lung develops holds the promise that investigators can use this knowledge to aid lung repair and regeneration. In the decade since the "molecular

This chapter focuses on organogenesis. It looks into the process of developing organs such as vertebrate eyes, vertebrate heart, teeth, vertebrate lungs, vertebrate limb, and insect wings. The chapter also highlights the complexity of organogenesis as it involves large numbers of genes and different types of tissues while ensuring integrated ...

The cotyledon represents one of the bases of classification within the plant kingdom, providing the name-giving difference between dicotyledonous and monocotyledonous plants. It is also a fundamental organ and there have been many reports of cotyledon mutants in many species. The use of these mutants where they have arisen in Arabidopsis has allowed us

Role of VEGF in Organogenesis [PDF]
The cardiovascular system, consisting of the heart, blood vessels and hematopoietic cells, is the first organ system to develop in vertebrates and is essential for providing oxygen and nutrients to the embryo and adult organs. Work done predominantly using the mouse and zebrafish as model systems has demonstrated that Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor

Cytoskeleton and plant organogenesis [PDF]
The functions of microtubules and actin filaments during various processes that are essential for the growth, reproduction and survival of single plant cells have been well characterized. A large number of plant structural cytoskeletal or cytoskeleton–associated proteins, as well as genes encoding such proteins, have been identified.

Root nodule organogenesis: a unique lateral organogenesis in legumes
During the course of plant evolution, leguminous and a few plants species have established root nodule symbiosis (RNS), one of the nitrogen nutrient acquisition strategies based on mutual interaction between plants and nitrogen-fixing bacteria. In addition to its useful agronomic trait, RNS comprises a unique form of plant lateral organogenesis ...

Lymphoid organogenesis in brief [PDF]
The recognition that lymphocytes existed in different varieties and that lymphoid organs were important for their differentiation greatly influenced immunological research. The growing awareness that started in the mid-fifties of the previous century has shifted the emphasis of immunology from a molecular, mostly serological science to the cell ...
