The distribution of Dishevelled in convergently extending mesoderm [PDF]
Convergent extension (CE) is a conserved morphogenetic movement that drives axial lengthening of the primary body axis and depends on the planar cell polarity (PCP) pathway.

Mitotic waves in an import-diffusion model with multiple nuclei in a shared cytoplasm [PDF]
Nuclei import and export proteins, including cell cycle regulators. These import-export processes are modulated periodically by the cell cycle, for example due to the periodic assembly and breakdown of the nuclear envelope. As such, replicated DNA can be segregated between the two daughter cells and the proteins that were localized in the nucleus are ...

Changes of statistical structural fluctuations unveils an early compacted degraded stage of PNS myelin [PDF]
Degradation of the myelin sheath is a common pathology underlying demyelinating neurological diseases from Multiple Sclerosis to Leukodistrophies. Although large malformations of myelin ultrastructure in the advanced stages of Wallerian degradation is known, its subtle structural variations at early stages of demyelination remains poorly characterized.

Acquisition of Leftward Flow in Xenopus laevis
In Xenopus, the left-right axis is established following an extracellular vectorial leftward flow driven by monocilia at the gastrocoel roof plate (GRP) during late gastrulation / neurulation (Schweickert et al., 2007).

Advances in CRISPR‐Cas9 in lineage tracing of model animals
Cell lineage tracing is a key technology for describing the developmental history of individual progenitor cells and assembling them to form a lineage development tree. However, traditional methods have limitations of poor stability and insufficient resolution.

Xenopus: An ideal system for chemical genetics [PDF]
Chemical genetics, or chemical biology, has become an increasingly powerful method for studying biological processes. The main objective of chemical genetics is the identification and use of small molecules that act directly on proteins, allowing rapid ...

Correlated disorder in myelinated axons orientational geometry and structure [PDF]
While the ultrastructure of the myelin has been considered to be a quasi-crystalline stable system, nowadays its multiscale complex dynamics appears to play a key role for its functionality, degeneration and repair processes following neurological diseases and trauma.

Lipids of Xenopus laevis Spermatozoa [PDF]
Xenopus laevis sperm lipid composition has been studied. The cholesterol content of Xenopus spermatozoa is 194 μ/mg DNA. Their content of glycolipids and phospholipids (measured as inorganic phosphorus) is respectively 40 and 27 μ/mg DNA. The phospholipid pattern is quite homogeneous and all the principal molecular species are present.

HCN2‐Associated Neurodevelopmental Disorders: Data from Patients and Xenopus Cell Models
Objective We aimed to characterize the phenotypic spectrum and functional consequences associated with variants in HCN2, encoding for the hyperpolarization‐activated cyclic nucleotide (HCN) gated channel 2. Methods GeneMatcher facilitated the recruitment of 21 individuals with HCN2 variants from 15 unrelated families, carrying HCN2 variants.

Paradigm Shifts In Neural Induction [PDF]
The molecularization of developmental biology was originally seen as a challenge to the integrity of that discipline. However, important new insights from the analysis of gene expression soon transformed the field from one of experimental anatomy to one ...
