Multiple developmental mechanisms regulate species-specific jaw size.
Variation in jaw size during evolution has been crucial for the adaptive radiation of vertebrates, yet variation in jaw size during development is often associated with disease. To test the hypothesis that early developmental events regulating neural crest (NC) progenitors contribute to species-specific differences in size, we investigated mechanisms through which two avian species, duck and qu...
متن کاملMultiple mechanisms regulate sympathetic neuronal phenotype.
Adult rat sympathetic neurons can possess specific neuropeptides utilized as cotransmitters along with norepinephrine, but the factors that regulate their expression remain unknown. 60% of adult rat superior cervical ganglion (SCG) neurons express neuropeptide Y (NPY) in vivo. To determine whether the restricted expression was an intrinsic property of sympathetic ganglia, we examined if embryon...
متن کاملMultiple mechanisms regulate muscle fiber diversity.
Adult skeletal muscles are composed of clusters of multinucleated muscle cells called myofibers. At least three different types of myofibers can be detected within mammals based on their physiological properties and their expression of different contractile protein isoforms. Different skeletal muscles display a wide range of combinations of myofibers. Recent work has demonstrated that multiple ...
متن کاملSpecies-specific mechanisms of carcinogenesis.
While there is excellent concordance between the results of animal and human studies on known human carcinogens, the data are much less consistent for known animal carcinogens, There could be many reasons for this, First, there may have been inadequate study or length and magnitude of human exposure to demonstrate human susceptibility. A second major factor is the difference in the proportion o...
متن کاملCargo- and adaptor-specific mechanisms regulate clathrin-mediated endocytosis
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis of surface receptors and their bound ligands (i.e., cargo) is highly regulated, including by the cargo itself. One of the possible sources of the observed heterogeneous dynamics of clathrin-coated pits (CCPs) might be the different cargo content. Consistent with this, we show that CCP size and dynamic behavior varies with low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) exp...
