Using the Xenopus Developmental Eye Regrowth Stystem to Distinguish the Role of Developmental Versus Regenerative Mechanisms [PDF]
, 2019 A longstanding challenge in regeneration biology is to understand the role of developmental mechanisms in restoring lost or damaged tissues and organs.

The Many Faces of Xenopus: Xenopus laevis as a Model System to Study Wolf–Hirschhorn Syndrome
Frontiers in Physiology, 2019 Wolf–Hirschhorn syndrome (WHS) is a rare developmental disorder characterized by intellectual disability and various physical malformations including craniofacial, skeletal, and cardiac defects.

Calpain Proteases and the Evolving Signaling Network in Insect Embryonic Patterning
Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.Insect embryonic Dorsal‐Ventral (DV) patterning relies on the BMP and Toll pathways to different extents. Calcium‐dependent cystein proteases of the Calpain family also exert an important function to pattern the DV axis. In Drosophila, Calpain A cleaves the Cactus/IkappaB inhibitor and modifies Toll signals in ventral regions of the embryo. In Rhodnius

The epithelium of the dorsal marginal zone of Xenopus has organizer properties [PDF]
, 1992 We have investigated the properties of the epithelial layer of the dorsal marginal zone (DMZ) of the Xenopus laevis early gastrula and found that it has inductive properties similar to those of the entire Spemann organizer.

Random Networks of Spiking Neurons: Instability in the Xenopus tadpole moto-neural pattern [PDF]
, 2000 A large network of integrate-and-fire neurons is studied analytically when the synaptic weights are independently randomly distributed according to a Gaussian distribution with arbitrary mean and variance. The relevant order parameters are identified, and it is shown that such network is statistically equivalent to an ensemble of independent integrate ...

Obtaining Xenopus laevis Embryos
Cold Spring Harbor Protocols, 2020 The embryos of the African clawed frog, Xenopus laevis, are a powerful substrate for the study of complex fundamental biological and disease mechanisms in neurobiology, physiology, molecular biology, cell biology, and developmental biology. A simple and straightforward technique for generating a large number of developmentally synchronized embryos is ...

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Photoremovable protecting groups (PPGs) offer a straightforward solution for the temporary inactivation of biologically active substrates and their subsequent controlled release by light irradiation. Their relatively easy design and mode of application have made them useful tools for studying dynamic biological processes in vitro and in vivo ...

Mitotic spindle scaling during Xenopus development by kif2a and importin α. [PDF]
, 2012 Early development of many animals is characterized by rapid cleavages that dramatically decrease cell size, but how the mitotic spindle adapts to changing cell dimensions is not understood.
