Marking Time In Developmental Biology: Annotating Developmental Events And Their Links With Molecular Events
نویسندگان
چکیده
Current research in developmental biology aims to link developmental genetic pathways with the processes going on at cellular and tissue level. Normal processes will only take place under specific sequential conditions at the level of the pathways. Disrupting or altering pathways may mean disrupted or altered development. This paper is part of a larger work exploring methods of detecting and extracting information on developmental events from free text and on their relations in space and time.

Comparison of BAX and Bcl-2 Expression During Human Embryonic Stem Cell Differentiation into Cardiomyocytes and Doxorubicin-induced Apoptosis
Back ground: Although the cell differentiation is an inseparable part of development in multicellular organisms, the regulating molecular pathway of it still is not fully defined. In the other hand, apoptosis is a fundamental physiological process which plays an essential role in a variety of biological events during development. Moreover, recent studies have found that apoptosis shows several ...
متن کاملMarking time in developmental biology
In developmental biology, to support reasoning about cause and effect, it is critical to link genetic pathways with processes at the cellular and tissue level that take place beforehand, simultaneously or subsequently. While researchers have worked on resolving with respect to absolute time, events mentioned in medical texts such as clinical narratives (e.g. Zhou et al, 2006), events in develop...
متن کاملInvolvement of Cytosine DNA methylation in different developmental stages of Aeluropus littoralis
DNA methylation as epigenetic mark plays a key role in normal differential and developmental processes as well as in dynamic gene regulation at the genomic level. To assess DNA methylation pattern in different developmental stages of Aeluropus littoralis, methylation sensitive amplified polymorphism (MSAP) was used. Methylation and demethylation status at the CCGG recognition site were...

Introduction: The morphogenic and histogenetic events of an organ and their time sequencing are basic required information to study factors involved in cells differentiation and evaluating the influence of different agents during the critical period of organ formation. The birds are noted as models in experimental embryologic studies, more than other animals. The present study described the mor...
متن کاملLiver Histogenesis in Chukar Partridge (Alectoris Chukar) Embryo
Introduction: In chick embryo, endodermal component of the liver becomes split into 2 diverticula in a short time. The anterior diverticulum lies to the left of the ductus venosus and the posterior one to its right side. As the liver primordium grows, it is invaded by the embryonic veins. Based on the different incubation time periods and evolutionary origin of avian species...
