    Lhx2 is a progenitor-intrinsic modulator of Sonic Hedgehog signaling during early retinal neurogenesis

    Xiaodong Li, Patrick J Gordon ... Edward M Levine
    The LIM-homedomain transcription factor Lhx2 confers competence to retinal progenitor cells to activate and maintain Sonic Hedgeghog signaling at physiological levels during a key phase of tissue growth and cell type generation.

    Patient-specific iPSC-derived photoreceptor precursor cells as a means to investigate retinitis pigmentosa

    Budd A Tucker, Robert F Mullins ... Edwin M Stone
    Skin cells from a patient with retinitis pigmentosa have been used to generate induced pluripotent stem cells, which could potentially form the basis of new treatments for this disease.

    Fibronectin is a smart adhesive that both influences and responds to the mechanics of early spinal column development

    Emilie Guillon, Dipjyoti Das ... Scott Holley
    A fibronectin matrix constantly remodels to the area of highest mechanical stress, and the resulting fibronectin-mediated inter-tissue adhesion impedes neural tube convergence.

    A 3D culture model of innervated human skeletal muscle enables studies of the adult neuromuscular junction

    Mohsen Afshar Bakooshli, Ethan S Lippmann ... Penney M Gilbert
    Human skeletal muscle progenitors and motor neurons self-organize in three-dimensional co-culture to form functional neuromuscular junctions that developmentally mature from the embryonic to the adult state.

    Recapitulating human cardio-pulmonary co-development using simultaneous multilineage differentiation of pluripotent stem cells

    Wai Hoe Ng, Elizabeth K Johnston ... Xi Ren
    An induced pluripotent stem-cell-based, human heart and lung co-differentiation model reveals their shared signaling requirement and enables investigation of their developmental mutual interaction and tissue boundary formation.

    Human axial progenitors generate trunk neural crest cells in vitro

    Thomas JR Frith, Ilaria Granata ... Anestis Tsakiridis
    Pluripotent stem cell differentiation provides insight into how neural crest subtypes of distinct axial identity are patterned in human embryos.

    SAFB regulates hippocampal stem cell fate by targeting Drosha to destabilize Nfib mRNA

    Pascal Forcella, Niklas Ifflander ... Verdon Taylor
    Extensive analysis shows that the RNA-binding protein SAFB binds to Drosha in hippocampal stem cells and controls oligodendrocyte fate commitment through post-transcriptional regulation of NFIB expression.

    RNA fusion in human retinal development

    Wen Wang, Xiao Zhang ... Zi-Bing Jin
    Chimeric RNAs are widely distributed spatiotemporally during human retinal development and have important regulatory functions, such as silencing of CTNNBIP1-CLSTN1 biasing the progenitor cells toward the RPE cell fate at the expense of neural retinal cell fates.
