A novel tool is used to assess gene function in vitro by targeted endogenous transcriptional activation to unveil novel players in development and disease.
Endothelial sphingolipid biosynthesis is essential for maintaining vascular development, neovascular proliferation, non-CNS tissue sphingolipid levels, and hepatocyte response to stress.
p27Kip1 directly controls invadopodia turnover by promoting the interaction of PAK1 with Cortactin, which induces Cortactin phosphorylation, invadopodia disassembly and facilitates invasion through extracellular matrix.
A physical niche for neural stem cells is generated by the induction of the immediate skin epithelium, a process triggered by the arrival of neural precursors during sensory organ formation in medaka.
During nephron regeneration, renal interstitial cells promote the proliferation of renal progenitor cells by secreting PGE2, thus forming the microenvironment of renal progenitor cells.
Pathogens, particularly viruses, target the same genes over deep evolutionary time, resulting in shared signatures of positive selection and transcriptional responses at the same genes.
A single-cell RNA profiling analysis has delineated the molecular changes driving the progression from actinic keratosis to cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma.
