The occipital lateral plate mesoderm is a novel source for vertebrate neck musculature [PDF]
In vertebrates, body musculature originates from somites, whereas head muscles originate from the cranial mesoderm. Neck muscles are located in the transition between these regions.

PAX3 expression in primary melanomas and nevi [PDF]
Melanoma is responsible for an estimated 62,000 new American cancer diagnoses and is projected to cause nearly 8000 deaths in 2008 alone. Although the histogenesis of the tumor is not well understood, it is thought to originate from a rare melanocyte stem cell that resides in the skin.

B7-H3 (also known as CD276) is associated with aggressive characteristics in various cancers. Meanwhile, in alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS), PAX3-FOXO1 fusion protein is associated with increased aggressiveness and poor prognosis.

Biphenotypic Sinonasal Sarcoma-Case Report and Review of Clinicopathological Features and Diagnostic Modalities. [PDF]
Background Biphenotypic sinonasal sarcoma is a recently described malignancy showing dual differentiation with both myogenic and neural elements. Due to its histologic similarities to other sinonasal malignancies, it is a diagnostic challenge.

Pax3/7 regulates neural tube closure and patterning in a non-vertebrate chordate
Pax3/7 factors play numerous roles in the development of the dorsal nervous system of vertebrates. From specifying neural crest at the neural plate borders, to regulating neural tube closure and patterning of the resulting neural tube.

The characterisation of Pax3 expressant cells in adult peripheral nerve. [PDF]
Pax3 has numerous integral functions in embryonic tissue morphogenesis and knowledge of its complex function in cells of adult tissue continues to unfold. Across a variety of adult tissue lineages, the role of Pax3 is principally linked to maintenance of

Negative correlation of single-cell PAX3:FOXO1 expression with tumorigenicity in rhabdomyosarcoma
Single-cell PAX3:FOXO1 expression in rhabdomyosarcoma is variable. PAX3:FOXO1 low cell states are characterized by more efficient adhesion, migration and tumor-propagating capacity.

ESF-EMBO symposium "molecular biology and innovative therapies in sarcomas of childhood and adolescence" Sept 29–Oct 4, Polonia Castle Pultusk, Poland [PDF]
Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) and Ewing sarcoma (ES) are among the most common pediatric sarcomas (Arndt et al., 2012). Despite sarcomas representing a highly heterogeneous group of tumors, ES and alveolar RMS (ARMS) typically share one common genetic ...

PAX3 is a transcription factor important for neural, muscle, and facial development in vertebrates. To identify genes regulated by PAX3, we used a cyclic amplification and selection of targets (CASTing) strategy to isolate cis-regulatory elements bound by PAX3.

Characterization of Pax3 and Sox10 Transgenic Xenopus Laevis Embryos as Tools to Study Neural Crest Development [PDF]
The neural crest is a multipotent population of cells that originates a variety of cell types. Many animal models are used to study neural crest induction, migration and differentiation, with amphibians and birds being the most widely used systems.
