Open AccessProtocol: Adeno-Associated Virus-Mediated Gene Transfer in Ex Vivo Cultured Embryonic Mammary Gland
Branching morphogenesis of the murine mammary gland starts during late embryogenesis. It is regulated by the signals emanating both from the epithelium and the mesenchyme, yet the molecular mechanisms regulati...

Open AccessEctodysplasin target gene Fgf20 regulates mammary bud growth and ductal invasion and branching during puberty
Mammary gland development begins with the appearance of epithelial placodes that invaginate, sprout, and branch to form small arborized trees by birth. The second phase of ductal growth and branching is driven...

Cloning and expression of BTB/POZ-domain from zebrafish gcl (germ cell-less), and appraisement of its polyclonal-antibody
In this study, a recombinant pET28c-gBTB/POZ was constructed by cloning the sequence of the BTB/POZ domain of the zebrafish gcl (germ cell-less) into the expression vector pET28c, and pET28c-gBTB/POZ was transfor...
