The B-line presumptive muscle cells of ascidian embryos have extensive potential for self-differentiation dependent on determinants prelocalized in the myoplasm of fertilized eggs. Ascidian larval muscle cells therefore provide an experimental system with which to explore an intrinsic genetic program for autonomous specification of embryonic cells. Experiments with egg fragments suggested that ...

متن کاملRecent achievements in stem cell-mediated myelin repair.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Following the establishment of a number of successful immunomodulatory treatments for multiple sclerosis, current research focuses on the repair of existing damage. RECENT FINDINGS Promotion of regeneration is particularly important for demyelinated areas with degenerated or functionally impaired axons of the central nervous system's white and gray matter. As the protection ...
متن کاملEpigenetic Approaches to Myelin Biology
understanding of the molecular mechanisms by which genes and environment interact. This new field of biology, epigenetics, describes the intricate and highly complex processes by which the 20,000 or so genes in our bodies are controlled throughout the life cycle. During development, the selective turning on or off of collections of genes govern the differentiation of stem cells into organs, and...
