The Amphioxus SoxB Family: Implications for the Evolution of Vertebrate Placodes [PDF]

, 2007
Cranial placodes are regions of thickened ectoderm that give rise to sense organs and ganglia in the vertebrate head. Homologous structures are proposed to exist in urochordates, but have not been found in cephalochordates, suggesting the first chordates

Gluconeogenesis in the yolk syncytial layer‐like tissue of cloudy catshark (Scyliorhinus torazame)

Physiological Reports
Glucose has important roles in the development of zebrafish, the vertebrate animal model; however, in most oviparous animals, the amount of maternally provided glucose in the yolk is scarce.

Comparative analysis of palmitoylation sites of serotonin (5‐HT) receptors in vertebrates

Neuropsychopharmacology Reports, 2018
Background In the vertebrate central nervous system as well as in the periphery, serotonin, also known as 5‐hydroxytriptamine (5‐HT), function as a neurotransmitter, a hormone or a mitogen.

Chromosomal mapping, differential origin and evolution of the S100 gene family

Genetics Selection Evolution, 2008
S100 proteins are calcium-binding proteins, which exist only in vertebrates and which constitute a large protein family. The origin and evolution of the S100 family in vertebrate lineages remain a challenge.

Interpretable Vertebral Fracture Diagnosis [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Do black-box neural network models learn clinically relevant features for fracture diagnosis? The answer not only establishes reliability quenches scientific curiosity but also leads to explainable and verbose findings that can assist the radiologists in the final and increase trust. This work identifies the concepts networks use for vertebral fracture
