The XenCart Protocol provides a reproducible way to visualize and quantify how the developing craniofacial skeleton responds to experimental perturbation. Embryos are exposed to defined conditions, craniofacial cartilage is stained with Alcian blue, imaged, and analyzed morphometrically.

The spinal cord is the first central nervous system structure to develop during vertebrate embryogenesis, underscoring its importance to the organism. Because of its early formation, accessibility to the developing spinal cord in amniotes is challenging,

Photochemistry of CryB from Rhodobacter sphaeroides
Elucidation of the photochemistry of CryB from Rhodobacter sphaeroides was achieved from the nanosecond to second timescale. A fast (<5 ns) deprotonation of the terminal electron donor Trp338 and the involvement of Tyr337 in photoreduction have been revealed.

Association of TCTP with Centrosome and Microtubules
Translationally Controlled Tumour Protein (TCTP) associates with microtubules (MT), however, the details of this association are unknown. Here we analyze the relationship of TCTP with MTs and centrosomes in Xenopus laevis and mammalian cells using ...

Abstract figure legend Propionate in the fetal circulation is thought to originate from fermentation of dietary fibre by the maternal gut microbiota. However, the mechanism of transplacental transport has remained unclear. Here, we measured propionate permeability using a placental barrier model generated by differentiating human placental trophoblast ...

Caenorhabditis elegans as an in vivo model system for human inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes
Abstract figure legend Most genes involved in inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes (IPAS) are conserved in Caenorhabditis elegans, where genetic manipulation enables functional characterization of variants, identification of regulatory proteins, and in vivo drug testing.

Cranial musculoskeletal descriptions of anurans can be used to describe the topology (organizational structure). The topology of pre‐metamorphic anurans is more integrated and less modular than that of post‐metamorphics. Topologies cluster consistently with similar life phases, despite different feeding or reproductive modes and thereby support the ...

In vitro studies on T cell proliferation and Lymphokine factor production in the amphibian, Xenopus [PDF]
The major aim of this Thesis has been to procure and begin to characterise T cell-derived cytokines in the clawed toad, Xenopus. Recent reports have suggested that Xenopus lymphocytes, stimulated in vitro with T cell mitogens, will generate factors that ...
