[PDF][PDF] Dissecting cell lineage specification and sex fate determination in gonadal somatic cells using single-cell transcriptomics

I Stévant, F Kühne, A Greenfield, MC Chaboissier… - Cell reports, 2019 - cell.com
Sex determination is a unique process that allows the study of multipotent progenitors and
their acquisition of sex-specific fates during differentiation of the gonad into a testis or an ovary…

[PDF][PDF] Deciphering cell lineage specification during male sex determination with single-cell RNA sequencing

I Stévant, Y Neirijnck, C Borel, J Escoffier, LB Smith… - Cell reports, 2018 - cell.com
The gonad is a unique biological system for studying cell-fate decisions. However, major
questions remain regarding the identity of somatic progenitor cells and the transcriptional …

Sequential transcriptional waves direct the differentiation of newborn neurons in the mouse neocortex

L Telley, S Govindan, J Prados, I Stevant, S Nef… - Science, 2016 - science.org
During corticogenesis, excitatory neurons are born from progenitors located in the ventricular
zone (VZ), from where they migrate to assemble into circuits. How neuronal identity is …

A brief history of sex determination

I Stévant, MD Papaioannou, S Nef - Molecular and cellular endocrinology, 2018 - Elsevier
A fundamental biological question that has puzzled, but also fascinated mankind since antiquity
is the one pertaining to the differences between sexes. Ancient cultures and mythologies …

[HTML][HTML] Direct competition between hnRNP C and U2AF65 protects the transcriptome from the exonization of Alu elements

…, M Tajnik, I Martincorena, S Eustermann, I Stévant… - Cell, 2013 - cell.com
There are ∼650,000 Alu elements in transcribed regions of the human genome. These elements
contain cryptic splice sites, so they are in constant danger of aberrant incorporation into …

Genetic control of gonadal sex determination and development

I Stévant, S Nef - Trends in Genetics, 2019 - cell.com
Sex determination is the process by which the bipotential gonads develop as either testes or
ovaries. With two distinct potential outcomes, the gonadal primordium offers a unique model …

Research resource: the dynamic transcriptional profile of sertoli cells during the progression of spermatogenesis

C Zimmermann, I Stévant, C Borel… - Molecular …, 2015 - academic.oup.com
Sertoli cells (SCs), the only somatic cells within seminiferous tubules, associate intimately
with developing germ cells. They not only provide physical and nutritional support but also …

ZNRF3 functions in mammalian sex determination by inhibiting canonical WNT signaling

…, F Cong, BK Koo, H Clevers, I Stévant… - Proceedings of the …, 2018 - National Acad Sciences
Mammalian sex determination is controlled by the antagonistic interactions of two genetic
pathways: The SRY-SOX9-FGF9 network promotes testis determination partly by opposing …

Characterizing the bipotential mammalian gonad

S Nef, I Stévant, A Greenfield - Current topics in developmental biology, 2019 - Elsevier
Primary sex determination is the decision by which the bipotential embryonic gonad commits
to either the testicular or ovarian fate. The developing gonad constitutes a unique paradigm …
