lncCPSET1 acts as a scaffold for MLL2/COMPASS to regulate Bmp4 and promote the formation of chicken primordial germ cells
Primordial germ cells (PGCs) are the ancestors of female and male germ cells. Recent studies have shown that long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) and histone...

SIRT1 activation attenuates palmitate induced apoptosis in C2C12 muscle cells
BackgroundType 2 diabetes is characterized by insulin resistance, which manifests mainly in skeletal muscles. SIRT1 has been found to play a role in...

Convergent gene losses and pseudogenizations in multiple lineages of stomachless fishes
The regressive evolution of independent lineages often results in convergent phenotypes. Several teleost groups display secondary loss of the...

Aedes aegypti exhibits a distinctive mode of late ovarian development
BackgroundInsects live in almost every habitat on earth. To adapt to their diverse environments, insects have developed a myriad of different...

Chemical Genetics: Manipulating the Germline with Small Molecules
Primordial germ cells (PGCs) are the precursor cells that form during early embryogenesis and later differentiate into oocytes or spermatozoa.... -
Role of oxidative stress and inflammation-related signaling pathways in doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy
Doxorubicin (DOX) is a powerful and commonly used chemotherapeutic drug, used alone or in combination in a variety of cancers, while it has been...
