Rapid induction and clearance of TGFβ1 is an early response to wounding in the mouse embryo Tập 14 Số 3 - Trang 225-238 - 1993
Paul Martin, Marion C. Dickson, Fergus A. Millan, Rosemary J. Akhurst
AbstractThe TGFβ family of growth factors has been implicated as playing a
significant role in many aspects of embryonic morphogenesis, and also as a
mediator of adult tissue repair processes. Unlike the situation in the adult,
rissue repair in the embryo does not result in scarring, and it has been
suggested that this might be due, in part, to reduced levels of growth factors,
particularly TGFβ, ... hiện toàn bộ
Mutations affecting embryonic cell migrations in Caenorhabditis elegans Tập 11 Số 1 - Trang 49-64 - 1990
James Manser, W B Wood
AbstractFour recessive mutations that affect long‐range embryonic migration of
the two canal‐associated neurons (CANs) in C. elegans were isolated and
characterized with the goal of identifying genes involved in control of directed
cell movement. Mutant animals were identified initially by their “withered”
tails, a phenotype associated with abnormal CAN migration; the mutants were then
analyzed fo... hiện toàn bộ
S6 phosphorylation results from prothoracicotropic hormone stimulation of insect prothoracic glands: A role for S6 kinase Tập 15 Số 4 - Trang 332-338 - 1994
Qisheng Song, Lawrence I. Gilbert
AbstractThe insect prothoracic glands are the source of steroidal molting
hormone precursors and the glands are stimulated by a brain neuropeptide,
prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH). Previous work from this laboratory revealed
that PTTH acts via a cascade including Ca2+/calmodulin activation of adenylate
cyclase, protein kinase A, and the subsequent phosphorylation of a 34 kDa
protein (p34) hypoth... hiện toàn bộ
Use of a yeast site‐specific recombinase to generate embryonic mosaics in Drosophila Tập 13 Số 5 - Trang 367-375 - 1992
Duyen T. Dang, Norbert Perrimon
AbstractAn efficient method for generating embryonic mosaics using a yeast
site‐specific recombinase (FLP), under the control of a heat shock promoter, is
described. FLP‐recombinase can promote mitotic exchange between homologous
chromosomes that contain FRT (FLP Recombination Target) sequences. To
demonstrate the efficiency of FLP‐recombinase to generate embryonic mosaics,
clones of the recessive... hiện toàn bộ
Tissue‐specific and developmental expression of human transthyretin gene in transgenic mice Tập 8 Số 4 - Trang 195-205 - 1987
Ken‐Ichi Yamamura, Shoji Wakasugi, Shuichiro Maeda, Takeaki Inomoto, T. Iwanaga, Masahiro Uehira, Kimi Araki, Jun‐ichi Miyazaki, Kazunori Shimada
AbstractTo analyze the regulation of transthyretin gene expression we have
produced transgenic mice by microinjecting cloned human transthyretin genes into
fertilized eggs of C57BL/6 mice. The 7.6‐kilobase (kb) human transthyretin gene
containing about 500 base pairs (bp) in the upstream region was used for
microinjection. Seven out of nine transgenic mice had detectable amounts of
human transthyr... hiện toàn bộ
Liver‐specific and high‐level expression of human serum amyloid P component gene in transgenic mice Tập 10 Số 5 - Trang 365-371 - 1989
T. Iwanaga, Shoji Wakasugi, Takeaki Inomoto, Masahiro Uehira, Shuji Ohnishi, Seiji Nishiguchi, Kimi Araki, Masatake Uno, Jun‐ichi Miyazaki, Shuichiro Maeda, Kazunori Shimada, Ken‐Ichi Yamamura
AbstractTo analyze the regulation of human serum amyloid P component (SAP) gene
expression, we have produced seven transgenic mice. The 3.3 kb human SAP genes
containing about 0.8 kb of 5′ and 1.5 kb of 3′ flanking region were injected
into fertilized eggs of C57BL/6 mice. In five of the seven transgenic mice,
human SAP was detected in the sera and serum concentrations were higher than
that of hum... hiện toàn bộ
Sequence analysis of translationally controlled maternal mRNAs from Urechis caupo Tập 14 Số 6 - Trang 485-491 - 1993
Eric T. Rosenthal
AbstractFertilization of Urechis coupo oocytes stimulates dramatic changes in
the pattern of protein synthesis. This shift is brought about entirely through
selective translation of the large pool of maternal mRNAs synthesized and stored
during oogenesis. My laboratory has identified cDNA clones to more than 20
different Urechis maternal mRNAs. These have been used to determine whether the
complem... hiện toàn bộ
Drosophila salivary gland proteins and pupation Tập 3 Số 3 - Trang 255-272 - 1982
Loveriza A. Sarmiento, Herschel K. Mitchell
AbstractPulse‐labeling experiments of salivary glands from the prepupal stages
of development showed selectively high rates of synthesis of a set of low
molecular weight proteins (6K–12K). These proteins are stably maintained in the
salivary glands during prepupal development and are subsequently transported to
the pupation fluid (found between the pupal case and the prepupal cuticle) when
pupatio... hiện toàn bộ
