CRISPR/Cas-mediated mRNA knockdown in the embryos of Xenopus tropicalis [PDF]

Cell & Bioscience
The Xenopus tropicalis (Western clawed frog) is an important amphibian model for genetics, developmental and regenerative biology, due to its diploid genetic background and short generation time.

Echocardiographic assessment of Xenopus tropicalis heart regeneration [PDF]

Cell & Bioscience, 2023
Background Recently, it was reported that the adult X. tropicalis heart can regenerate in a nearly scar-free manner after injury via apical resection. Thus, a cardiac regeneration model in adult X. tropicalis provides a powerful tool for recapitulating a

Developing immortal cell lines from Xenopus embryos, four novel cell lines derived from Xenopus tropicalis [PDF]

Open Biology, 2022
The diploid anuran Xenopus tropicalis has emerged as a key research model in cell and developmental biology. To enhance the usefulness of this species, we developed methods for generating immortal cell lines from Nigerian strain (NXR_1018, RRID ...

Identification of tumor-related genes via RNA sequencing of tumor tissues in Xenopus tropicalis [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2023
Cancer treatment is still challenging because the disease is often caused by multiple mutations. Although genomic studies have identified many oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes, gene sets involved in tumorigenesis remain poorly understood.

Sex-Specific Gene Expression Ontogeny During Gonadal Development in Post-Metamorphic Xenopus tropicalis. [PDF]

Mol Reprod Dev
Post‐metamorphic gonadal development in Xenopus tropicalis was analyzed through integrated morphometric, histological, and transcriptional approaches. Males showed upregulation of cyp17, amh, and amhr2, whereas females exhibited an increased aldh1a2 and ddx4.

Expanding the CRISPR/Cas genome-editing scope in Xenopus tropicalis [PDF]

Cell & Bioscience, 2022
Background The true diploid frog, Xenopus tropicalis (X. tropicalis) is an excellent genetic model organism. To date, the CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome editing methods established in this species are mostly based on SpCas9 that requires the stringent NGG ...
