The signaling requirements to decouple proliferation of pancreatic progenitors from differentiation were elucidated and employed for the reproducible expansion, under GMP-compliant conditions, of pancreatic progenitors derived from different human pluripotent stem cell lines.

The homeodomain protein Bsh increases lamina neuron types and visual function.

Exposure of embryonic stem cells to physiological concentrations of Δ9-THC remodels cellular metabolism across differentiation.

The growth of wild Drosophila larvae on fruits is promoted by a yeast releasing essential nutrients extracellularly or by a stable association with a nutrient-providing bacterium established by microbe–microbe interactions.

In vitro analyses reveal how vertical DNA transmission from the mother to the pre-implantation embryo via endometrial extracellular vesicles can impact embryo bioenergetics.

Experiments exploring the role of juvenile hormone during the life cycle of firebrat insects provide clues about the evolution of metamorphosis.

CFAP52 is a candidate for genetic diagnosing male infertility with defects of sperm head-tail connection and flagella development.

The psychoactive component of cannabis, ∆9-THC, affects cell growth and metabolism in early embryonic cell types in mice.

Mesoderm-derived enteric neurons born in the post-natal vertebrates drive maturation and aging of the enteric nervous system.

Dorsoventral gradients of transcription factors NFIA, B, and X impose epigenetic and transcriptional spatial restrictions to olfactory receptor expression.
