Evolution of Shh endoderm enhancers during morphological transition from ventral lungs to dorsal gas bladder

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Endoderm enhancer MACS1 of Sonic Hedgehog is conserved in animals with lungs. Here, the authors show that mouse without MACS1 has defective laryngeal development, and use phylogenetic analyses to show association of evolutionary lung-gas bladder ...

Utilising Next‐Generation Sequencing to Explore the Molecular Etiology of Short Root Anomaly

open access: yesOrthodontics &Craniofacial Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Short Root Anomaly (SRA) is a genetic dental disorder affecting tooth root development. The affected teeth have abnormally short roots and significantly reduced root to crown ratios. The aim of this study was to determine the mode of inheritance and the molecular aetiology of SRA in identified Hispanic families.

Cutaneous Basal Cell Carcinoma with Lymph Node and Pulmonary Metastases

open access: yesCase Reports in Oncological Medicine, 2018
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common skin cancer. Metastatic BCC is an extraordinary rare finding observed in only 0.5% of all cases. Until the introduction of the small molecule hedgehog inhibitor vismodegib, patients with metastatic BCC were ...

Impaired neurodevelopmental pathways in autism spectrum disorder: a review of signaling mechanisms and crosstalk. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BackgroundThe development of an autistic brain is a highly complex process as evident from the involvement of various genetic and non-genetic factors in the etiology of the autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Despite being a multifactorial neurodevelopmental

Genetic Diagnoses Among Congenital Anomaly Cases in Europe: Data From the EUROCAT Network

open access: yesPaediatric and Perinatal Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Surveillance of congenital anomaly prevalence over time can identify new teratogens. Anomalies with a genetic cause are excluded from the monitoring. Objectives We examined temporal changes in the proportion of genetic diagnoses among cases with a congenital anomaly.

Hedgehog stimulates hair follicle neogenesis by creating inductive dermis during murine skin wound healing

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
On wounding, scar formation in mammals arises causing no hair follicle regeneration, but it is unclear if scarring precludes regeneration. Here, the authors show that if Sonic hedgehog signaling is activated in the wound, an inductive dermal niche forms,

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

Glial cells in the heart: Implications for their roles in health and disease

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic representation of cardiac autonomic ganglia within epicardial fat pads (posterior heart surface shown), containing vagal postganglionic neuron cell bodies, associated fibres, and glia. These ganglia receive cholinergic input from vagal preganglionic neurons and adrenergic input from sympathetic postganglionic neurons ...

Dorsalization of the neural tube by the non-neural ectoderm [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
The patterning of cell types along the dorsoventral axis of the spinal cord requires a complex set of inductive signals. While the chordamesoderm is a well-known source of ventralizing signals, relatively little is known about the cues that induce dorsal
