Growth Control and Pattern Regulation in the Lateral Line Systems of Xenopus

چکیده
Rudolf Winklbauer Max-Planck-Institut für Entwicklungsbiologie, Spemannstraße 35/V. D-7400 Tübingen, Bundesrepublik Deutschland Z. Naturforsch. 43c, 294-300 (1988); received December 22, 1987 Growth Control, Pattern Formation, Lateral Line System. Xenopus In Xenopus, the supraorbital lateral line system consists of a periodic pattern of lateral line organs which is formed by the regular fragmentation of a streak-like primordium. The pattern forming mechanism which subdivides the primordium into individual organs is not capable of adjusting to the variable size of the system. Nevertheless, the number of organs per supraorbital system tends to be held constant. This is achieved by regulating the growth of the system in an appropriate manner.

Regulation of CFTR chloride channel trafficking by Nedd4-2: role of SGK1
Introduction: The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) chloride (Cl−) channel is an essential component of epithelial Cl− transport systems in many organs. CFTR is mainly expressed in the lung and other tissues, such as testis, duodenum, trachea and kidney. The ubiquitin ligase neural precursor cells expressed developmentally down-regulated protein 4-2 (Nedd4-2...

Background: Polarized cells are key to the process of differentiation. Xenopus oocyte is a polarized cell that has complete blue-print to differentiate 3 germ layers following fertilization, as key determinant molecules (Proteins and RNAs) are asymmetrically localized. The objective of this work was to localize Na+, K+-ATPase activity along animal-vegetal axis of polarized Xenopus oocyte and fo...

Conventional cephalometric analysis, based on intracranial reference line SN and Frankfurt plan, sometimes leads to incorrect diagnostic findings and unpleasant theraputic results, especially in orthosurgery patients, mainly due to the instability of the mentioned references. Natural head position (NHP) is the standardized orientation of the head that its record in lateral cephalometric radiogr...
متن کاملAnalyzing ways of transition in the pattern of urban growth
Today each city due to natural limitations, facilities and planning policies has different growth pattern which according to its spread, has different consequences and results. Although there is a wide range of urban growth patterns, but the important thing is not diversity and number of models but is the absence of rules and methods of transition from one to another pattern (form). So this art...
متن کاملExpression of hsp90 Alpha and hsp90 Beta during Xenopus laevis Embryonic Development
Background: Members of the eukaryotic Hsp90 family function as important molecular chaperones in the assembly, folding and activation of cellular signaling in development. Two hsp90 genes, hsp90 alpha and hsp90 beta, have been identified in fish and homeothermic vertebrates but not in poikilothermic vertebrates. In the present study, the expression of hsp90 alpha and hsp90 beta genes in Xenopus...
