DNA methyltransferase 3b is dispensable for mouse neural crest development.

Glucocorticoids (Gc) influence the differentiation of neural crest- derived cells such as those composing sympathoadrenal tumors like pheochromocytomas, as well as neuroblastomas

derived from neural crest, while the posteriorly contiguous bone (the.. parietal) is formed exclusively by paraxial mesoderm derived

Silencing SOX2 expression in neural crest stem cells may reverse the inhibition of differentiation from neural crest stem cells to Schwann cells conducted by

Key words: neural crest, avian embryo, cell differentiation, endothelin3, peripheral nervous system, melanocytes, Schwann cells,

To gain insight into the relevance of de novo CpG methylation in cardiac hypertrophy and failure, we subjected these mice to left ventricular pressure overload by transverse

One hundred percent of mouse embryos that are homozygous for the mutant Pax3 allele, Splotch ( Pax3 Sp/Sp ) develop neural tube defects (NTD), cardiac outflow tract defects (COTD),

In addition to activation of JNK, PTK7 and Ror2 share a function in the inhibition of canon- ical Wnt signaling [ 34 , 35 , 45 , 53 ], which may contribute to their role in

To determine the origin of the progenitor cells in aganglionic region, we used fluorescence-activated cell sorting to demonstrate that only p75-positive neural crest- derived
