The identification and characterisation of key genes involved in somatic embryogenesis in wheat (Triticum, aestivum L.) [PDF]
, 2007 One of the most remarkable aspects of plants cells is that on application of the plant hormone auxin, they possess the unique ability to de-differentiate and return to embryonic development, via a process known as `somatic embryogenesis' (SE). On removal

Complex patterns of male germline instability and somatic mosaicism in myotonic dystrophy type 1 [PDF]
, 2000 The genetic basis of myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is the expansion of a CTG repeat in the 3' untranslated region of DM1PK . Once into the disease range, the repeat becomes highly unstable and is biased toward expansion in both somatic and germline ...

Seasonal variations of milk production and quality of Mediterranean ewes in extremely warm weather conditions [PDF]
Journal of Central European Agriculture, 2018 Starting from the assumption that the climatic conditions determine the quantity and quality of available forage on the pastures which is the largest source of nutrients of meal of sheep reared in coastal and island of Croatia, the aim of this research ...

The VH gene repertoire of splenic B cells and somatic hypermutation in systemic lupus erythematosus [PDF]
, 2003 In systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) it has been hypothesized that self-reactive B cells arise from virgin B cells that express low-affinity, nonpathogenic germline V genes that are cross-reactive for self and microbial antigens, which convert to high ...

Reprogramming somatic cells into stem cells [PDF]
Reproduction, 2006 Abstract Recent scientific achievements in cell and developmental biology have provided unprecedented opportunities for advances in biomedical research. The demonstration that fully differentiated cells can reverse their gene expression profile to that of a pluripotent cell, and the successful derivation and culture of human embryonic

Interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer is dependent on compatible mitochondrial DNA and reprogramming factors [PDF]
, 2011 Interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer (iSCNT) involves the transfer of a nucleus or cell from one species into the cytoplasm of an enucleated oocyte from another.

Stem cells of Hydra magnipapillata can differentiate into somatic cells and germ line cells [PDF]
, 1987 We investigated whether all stem cells of Hydra can differentiate both somatic cells and gametes or if a separate germ line exists in these phylogenetically old organisms.

Genomics, Proteomics & Bioinformatics, 2022 Gonadal somatic cells are the main players in gonad development and are important for sex determination and germ cell development. Here, using a time-series single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) strategy, we analyzed fetal germ cells (FGCs) and gonadal ...
