Single-cell transcriptomic dissection of two waves of endothelial-hematopoietic transition in a murine yolk sac [PDF]
Blood ScienceThe yolk sac drives vertebrate embryonic hematopoiesis through primitive hematopoiesis and endothelial-to-hematopoietic transition (EHT) waves. However, dynamic cellular and molecular changes during EHT of the yolk sac remain to be elucidated. We built a

Mouse Yolk Sac Hematopoiesis [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2018 The yolk sac is the first observed site of hematopoiesis during mouse ontogeny. Primitive erythroid cells are the most well-recognized cell lineages produced from this tissue. In addition to primitive erythroid cells, several types of hematopoietic cells

Serum lipidomics analysis reveals yolk sac absorption differences in newly hatched chicks [PDF]
Poultry ScienceThe yolk sac provides nutrients to a newly hatched chick with maternal nutrient substances including large amounts of lipids. Higher resorption of the yolk sac is generally considered positive for chick development.

Differential regulation of fetal bone marrow and liver hematopoiesis by yolk-sac-derived myeloid cells [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsFetal hematopoiesis takes place in the liver before colonizing the bone marrow where it will persist for life. This colonization is thought to be mediated by specification of a microenvironment that selectively recruits hematopoietic cells to the nascent

Ovarian Yolk Sac Tumors: Is Fertility Preservation Possible? [PDF]
Advanced Biomedical ResearchYolk sac tumors make up 14% to 20% of all malignant ovarian germ cell tumors. Serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels are elevated in a significant number of patients and are useful for monitoring the response to treatment and for post-treatment ...

Primary Gastric Yolk Sac Tumour
Sultan Qaboos University Medical Journal, 2018 Primary gastric yolk tumours are extremely rare. We report a 52-year-old male who presented to the Sultan Qaboos University Hospital, Muscat, Oman, in 2017 after having undergone a gastrectomy abroad due to a suspected poorly-differentiated ...
