The Sox9 gene is necessary for maintaining vision in the mouse adult eye, acting as an essential factor for retinal and corneal function.

Sub-membrane microtubule array, known to prevent excessive glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, depends on kinesin-1 KIF5B, which moves microtubules to both generate and remodel this array, potentially regulating the dosage of secretion.

A novel form of collective mesenchymal cell migration is identified during chick gastrulation, where a dynamic 3D meshwork supported by N-cadherin-mediated adhesion coordinates movement and enhances directional migration in the unconfined space between ectoderm and endoderm.

While the genes involved in craniofacial development are highly conserved between the fat-tailed dunnart and mouse, their cis-regulatory elements show significant divergence and appear to reflect species-specific developmental processes.

A genetic tracing study demonstrates that neural progenitor lineage dominance may not be maintained in differentiated progeny, underscoring the critical need for region-specific markers to validate pluripotent stem cell–derived products.

Integrated proteomic and single-cell transcriptomic analyses define the Nematostella vectensis matrisome and reveal conserved extracellular matrix functions driving life cycle transitions in this non-bilaterian model.
