   Asymmetric neurogenic commitment of retinal progenitors involves Notch through the endocytic pathway

   Elisa Nerli et al.

   A quantitative live imaging approach unveils that earliest neurogenic progenitors in the vertebrate retina arise from asymmetric divisions and that this asymmetry involves Notch signalling through the endocytic pathway.

   Drosophila hedgehog can act as a morphogen in the absence of regulated Ci processing

   Jamie C Little et al.

   Hedgehog acts as a morphogen by regulating proteolytic processing and activation of full-length Ci/Gli transcriptional effectors but can pattern Drosophila wing discs normally in the absence of regulated proteolytic processing.

   Leptin suppresses development of GLP-1 inputs to the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus

   Jessica E Biddinger et al.

   Leptin acts cell autonomously on brainstem neurons that express GLP-1 to suppress development of excitatory viscerosensory inputs to the hypothalamus.

    Embryonic origin and serial homology of gill arches and paired fins in the skate, Leucoraja erinacea

    Victoria A Sleight, J Andrew Gillis

    Development from dual-origin mesenchyme with common competence explains anatomical parallels and shared patterning of the jawed vertebrate gill arch and paired fin skeletons.
