This series represents murine dorsal neural tube bisected along the midline with one half from each embryo used for control and the other half treated with 10-6M RA dissolved in ethanol for 6, 12, 24 or 48 h. For 6 h exposures, the explants were cultured overnight on fibronectin coated 35mm dishes (...
Extracellular chemical cues constitute much of the language of life among marine organisms from microbes to mammals. These chemical cues shape foraging and feeding strategies, symbiotic interactions, selection of mates and habitats, and the transfer of energy and nutrient...
We report 12 individuals from ten unrelated families with epilepsy, learning difficulties, intellectual disability, and neurobehavioral abnormalities, who segregated a microdeletion distally adjacent to the Williams-Beuren syndrome region. In six families, a recurrent ~ 1.1 Mb deletion likely result...
LIN28 is a conserved RNA binding protein implicated in pluripotency, reprogramming and oncogenesis. Previously shown to act primarily by blocking let-7 microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis, here we elucidate distinct roles of LIN28 regulation via its direct messenger RNA (mRNA) targets. Through cross-linking...
Purpose: Previous studies of breast tissue gene expression have demonstrated that the extratumoral microenvironment has substantial variability across individuals, some of which can be attributed to epidemiologic factors. To evaluate how mammographic density (MD) and breast tissue composition relat...
ChIP-chip was performed using chromatin isolated from formaldehyde crosslinked, stage 5 embryos, and 8WG16 monoclonal antibody against RNA polymerase II(Covance Inc.). The chromatin immunoprecitation and hybridization for each antibody were carried out in duplicates, and in each chromatin immunopr...
H1299 cells expressing tetracycline regulated (“tet-off”) delta30 p53 (delta364-393) were previously described (Chen et al., 1996; McKinney et al., 2004).
Mice were subjected to renal artery clamps to induce ischemia/reperfusion injury to the kidney. 3 days post surgery mice were injected with CSF1 or PBS daily for a further 3 days. Mice were sacrificed 5 and 7 days post surgey and the kidney was removed and homogenised into single cell suspensions. C...
Phosphorus (P) is a critical driver of phytoplankton growth and ecosystem structure and function in the ocean. Diatoms are an abundant and widespread functional group of phytoplankton that are responsible for significant amounts of primary production in the ocean, however there has not been a compre...
