BACKGROUND: Thyroid hormones (TH) play critical roles in embryonic vascular development, yet their precise molecular contributions remain inadequately defined. This study investigates how pharmacological blockade of thyroid hormone receptor…
BACKGROUND: Technical advances in whole tissue imaging and clearing have allowed 3D reconstruction of exocrine uterine glands deep-seated in the endometrium. However, there are limited gland structure analysis platforms to analyze these ima…
During sexual reproduction in many species, sperm and oocyte secrete diffusible signaling molecules to help orchestrate the biological symphony of fertilization. In the Caenorhabditis elegans gonad, bidirectional signaling between sperm and…
The cadherins are key morphoregulators. A switch in the cadherin subtype(s) expressed by a population of cells has been associated with the differentiation and formation of tissues during embryonic development. To date, the role(s) of the c…
