During Drosophila axis elongation, the orientational pattern of the cytoskeleton is in good approximation stationary, while the genes thought to instruct these patterns are transported with the tissue flow.

In higher vertebrates, the position of the embryonic axis (the location at which gastrulation starts) is determined by the transcription factor Pitx2, which suggests that the mechanisms of this process, and hence those that regulate twinning, are related to those that set up the left–right axis.

NR4A is a broadly conserved transcription factor that is required for concordance of patterning information and anatomy at both ends of the planarian anterior-posterior axis.

A nonlinear deep generative model can represent fetal–neonatal resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging better than conventional linear models.

Precise dosage of the imprinted H19 and Igf2 genes is critical for normal embryonic development, especially related to the cardiac-placental axis.

Very local molecular patterns impart precise changes in the local mechanics of individual cell-cell junctions.

SHH signaling acts through FOXF1/2 transcription factors and antagonizes BMP signaling to specify oral fate and pattern the oral-aboral axis of the mandibular arch to ensure proper formation of jaws.

The regulation of gene expression can be either binary (on/off digital regulation) or graded (analog regulation) and these fundamentally different regulatory modes can be integrated to control the expression of the same gene.

Airborne PM2.5 exposure triggers oxidative stress and mitochondrial apoptosis in placental trophoblast cells via the KLF9/CYP1A1 transcriptional axis, ultimately leading to adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Analysis of crawling Drosophila larva and agent based simulations suggest that an intrinsic rhythm rather than distinct actions underlie taxis behaviour, providing a core mechanism on which both sensory and memory pathways can converge.
