Natural killer cell evolution: cellular and molecular studies on Xenopus [PDF]
, 1996 The presence of natural killer cells at lower evolutionary levels was investigated in the amphibian Xenopus laevis. Chromium release microcytotoxicity assays revealed that fresh splenocytes from early-thymectomised Xenopus displayed significant ...

The Morphology of Heart Development in Xenopus laevis
Developmental Biology, 2000 We have used serial histological sections to document heart formation in Xenopus laevis, from the formation of a linear heart tube to the appearance of morphologically distinct atrial and ventricular chambers. 3D reconstruction techniques have been used to derive accurate models from digital images, revealing the morphological changes that accompany ...

Divergent roles of the Wnt/PCP Formin Daam1 in renal ciliogenesis.
PLoS ONE, 2019 Kidneys are composed of numerous ciliated epithelial tubules called nephrons. Each nephron functions to reabsorb nutrients and concentrate waste products into urine.

Investigations of primary active transporters expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes : Wilson Disease Protein, a p-type ATPase and Proteorhodopsin, a light driven proton pump [PDF]
, 2006 The present work wishes to contribute with information on two members of the primary active transporter group, which differ both in structure and function: Wilson Disease Protein which uses the energy released by ATP hydrolysis to transport copper across

On the function of Xenopus Oct4 protein homologs: Molecular construction of dominant interference variants and functional analysis in early frog development [PDF]
, 2011 Embryonic development represents a sophisticated multistep process. Hereby, specification, patterning and differentiation of cells and tissue need to be extremely well regulated in a temporo-spatial manner. This is based on repression and activation of a
