Development of the Avian Respiratory System
Comprehensive systematic account of the development of the avian respiratory system, specifically that of the domestic fowl, Gallus gallus variant... -
YAP-dependent Wnt5a induction in hypertrophic adipocytes restrains adiposity
Wnt5a, a prototypic non-canonical Wnt, is an inflammatory factor elevated in the sera of obese humans and mice. In the present study, fat-specific...
