Exposure to ketone bodies in early development can reduce neurological impairments in a strain of the nematode C. elegans with PTEN defects.

A single-cell RNA sequencing reveals cell heterogeneity of secondary metabolism in tea plant root and a proposed model in which the theanine biosynthesis pathway occurs via multicellular compartmentation.

Cell-cell interaction between neural crest-derived cells and mesoderm-derived cells determine cell fate of mesoderm-derived cell in tongue development through Hh signaling.

Brain ventricular astrogliosis and neuroinflammation precede scoliosis onset in the zebrafish rpgrip1l ciliary mutant and anti-inflammatory treatment drastically reduces scoliosis while correcting urotensin related peptide level is ineffective.

Calcineurin fine tunes the balance between proliferation and differentiation of Notch-responsive progenitors in the pancreatic ducts to enable beta cell regeneration in zebrafish.

Genetic manipulations reveal how the spatiotemporal expression pattern of two RNA-binding proteins regulates the eventual number of motoneurons in a Drosophila neuronal lineage.

Newly prepared double gene-edited sheep provide excellent models for skeletal muscle growth and development, and muscle diseases such as muscle atrophy and sarcopenia.

An encompassing resource of differentially phosphorylated proteins forms the basis for identifying missing links in cell fate determination and morphogenesis, including, for example, microtubules as mediators of different functions in cells along the dorso-ventral axis.
