The speed of intraflagellar transport, influenced by particle size, shows a positive correlation with ciliary length in zebrafish.

Marcks and Marcks-like 1 proteins are required for normal neurite formation and proliferation of neuro-glial progenitors during development and regeneration of the Xenopus spinal cord implicating these proteins as critical new factors for spinal cord development and regeneration.

Reduced lung myofibroblast proliferation is a unifying feature in multiple models of developmental emphysema and inhibition of myofibroblast proliferation is sufficient to cause this pathology.

Cells called alveolar myofibroblasts, which have a central role in the development of the lung after birth, receive an orchestrated input from a range of different signaling pathways.

A transcriptomic atlas of the mouse vomeronasal organ reveals novel receptor co-expression patterns and provides a framework for understanding sensory neuron lineage and receptor specification.

Aneuploid human embryonic cells are eliminated by p53-mediated apoptosis in a gene dosage dependent manner.

Drosophila melanogastereven-skipped enhancers control transcriptional bursting by modulating frequency and amplitude, regardless of varying transcription factor inputs, even when mutated to express in embryonic regions not under selective pressure.

Modelling O-GlcNAc transferase intellectual disability reveals the roles of this post-translational modification in regulating normal axonal terminal morphology and maintaining appropriate sleep homeostasis, pharmacological and genetic rescues of O-GlcNAcylation highlight the complexities of addressing this disorder.

Neural crest and placode lineages both contribute to the enteric nervous system, divergently utilizing Edn3-Ednrb and GDNF-Ret signaling.
