Research from Ph.D. candidate Bohan Chen in the lab of Idse Heemskerk of the Department of Cell and Developmental Biology at the University of Michigan Medical School and their colleagues improves ...

The neural tube is an embryonic transitory structure that serves as the primordium of the entire vertebrate CNS. Although the neural tube is continuous, its anterior and posterior parts differ in the ...

In addition to endodermal and mesodermal cells, alcohol causes changes in DNA methylation in ectodermal cells (in blue), from which the nervous system and brain develop. During the tightly regulated ...

Bioengineering researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have developed a soft, thin, stretchable bioelectronic device that can be implanted into a ...

DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification that plays a critical role in regulation of gene expression by modulating the activity of key regulatory elements such as promoters, enhancers, ...

This signaling is crucial for cell differentiation and the extension of the primitive streak. This structure eventually forms the neural plate, becoming the basis for the spinal cord and nervous ...

Research improves upon a popular experimental model of mammal development and in doing so, reveals more of the inner workings of a critical period during the formation of an embryo. Research from Ph.D ...
