Developmental expression profile of the yy2 gene in mice

David Drews, Martin Klar, Christof Dame, Anja U Bräuer BMC Developmental Biology 2009, 9:45 (28 July 2009)

Abstract | Full text | PDF | PubMed | Cited on BioMed Central |  Editor’s summary

Expression of the transcription factor Yin Yang 2 (YY2) in the cerebellum and neocortex of mice varies during embryonic and postnatal development, suggesting a functional role of YY2 in brain development.

Silencing of genes involved in Anaplasma marginale-tick interactions affects the pathogen developmental cycle in Dermacentor variabilis

Katherine M Kocan, Zorica Zivkovic, Edmour F Blouin, Victoria Naranjo, Consuelo Almazán, Ruchira Mitra, José de la Fuente BMC Developmental Biology 2009, 9:42 (16 July 2009)

Abstract | Full text | PDF | PubMed | Cited on BioMed Central |  Editor’s summary

When four tick host genes, whose expression is altered by the cattle pathogen Anaplasma marginale, are silenced by RNA interference, no salivary gland infections are seen in the gene-silenced insects, suggesting a role in the pathogen life-cycle in ticks.

The caudal regeneration blastema is an accumulation of rapidly proliferating stem cells in the flatworm Macrostomum lignano

Bernhard Egger, Robert Gschwentner, Michael W Hess, Katharina T Nimeth, Zbigniew Adamski, Maxime Willems, Reinhard Rieger, Willi Salvenmoser BMC Developmental Biology 2009, 9:41 (15 July 2009)

Abstract | Full text | PDF | PubMed |  Editor’s summary

In the flatworm Macrostomum lignano, regeneration of the tailplate after artificial amputation occurs by wound healing and formation of a distinct group of rapidly proliferating stem cells, called a regeneration blastema.
