The XenCart Protocol: A method for Alcian blue labeling and quantitative analysis of craniofacial cartilage in Xenopus

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
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.

Xenopus laevis as a Model Organism for the Study of Spinal Cord Formation, Development, Function and Regeneration

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2017
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

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
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

open access: yesBiochemistry Research International, 2012
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 ...

MCT1‐mediated bidirectional propionate transport across human placental syncytiotrophoblast layer: insights from a trophoblast stem cell‐derived barrier model

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
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 ...

Migratory and adhesive properties of Xenopus laevis primordial germ cells in vitro

open access: yesBiology Open, 2013
Summary The directional migration of primordial germ cells (PGCs) to the site of gonad formation is an advantageous model system to study cell motility.

Caenorhabditis elegans as an in vivo model system for human inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
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.

Anatomical Network Analyses of Pre‐ and Post‐Metamorphic Cranial Systems Support the Adaptive Decoupling Hypothesis in Anura

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 11, November 2026.
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]

open access: yes, 1990
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 ...
