Hox genes are required to pattern neural crest (NC) derived craniofacial and visceral skeletal
structures. However, the temporal requirement of Hox patterning activity is not known. Here…

The brains of teleost fish show extensive adult neurogenesis and neuronal regeneration.
The patterns of gene regulation during fish brain aging are unknown. The short‐lived teleost …

The regional and cellular distribution of serotonin type 2C receptor messenger RNA was
investigated in autopsy samples of human brain by in situ hybridization histochemistry. The …

UDP-glucose dehydrogenase (UGDH) supplies the cell with UDP-glucuronic acid (UDP-GlcUA),
a precursor of glycosaminoglycan and proteoglycan synthesis. Here we reported the …

The serotonin receptor 5-HT2B has been shown to be critically important during embryogenesis
as the knockout of this gene in mice causes heart defects and embryonic lethality that …

Neuroblastoma is a tumor arising in the peripheral sympathetic nervous system and is the
most common cancer in childhood. Since most of the cellular and molecular mechanisms …

In vertebrate embryos, retinoic acid (RA) synthesized in the mesoderm by Raldh2 emanates
to the hindbrain neuroepithelium, where it induces anteroposterior (AP)-restricted Hox …

The 5-HT 5A receptor is a member of a new subfamily of serotonin [5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)]
receptors recently cloned from the human and rodent brain. The role of this receptor in …

The skeletal structures of the face and throat are derived from cranial neural crest cells (NCCs)
that migrate from the embryonic neural tube into a series of branchial arches (BAs). The …

The RNA-binding protein LIN28B regulates developmental timing and determines stem cell
identity by suppressing the let-7 family of microRNAs. Postembryonic reactivation of LIN28B …
