The female reproductive hormones estrogens, progesterone, and prolactin control postnatal breast development and are important to breast carcinogenesis. In particular, exposure to progesterone is tightly linked to breast cancer risk. Using the mouse as a m ...
During early somite stages of development, the broad endoderm-derived foregut and hindgut territories become further subdivided along the antero-posterior axis into organs. One of these organs is the pancreas which serves two major physiological functions: ...
ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Gut homeostasis is central to whole organism health, and its disruption is associated with a broad range of pathologies. Following damage, complex physiological events are required in the gut to maintain proper homeostasis. Previously ...
The evolutionarily conserved Notch signaling cascade plays a pivotal role in the regulation of many fundamental processes such as stem cell maintenance, proliferation, and differentiation. Recently, we aimed to identify downstream target genes regulated by ...
Gliomas are the most common and lethal primary adult human brain cancers. The most lethal form of glioma is glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). Multiple apparently differentiated cell types are present within these tumours, including varying proportions of astr ...
Therapy‐resistant tumor cells often display EMT and stem cell‐like traits. The canonical Wnt pathway has been associated with these phenotypes in many cancer types. Our group has shown in mice that two proteins of this pathway, Bcl9 and Bcl9l, participate ...
Stem cell use in bladder tissue engineering is a recently addressed area of investigation that has generated excitement as a novel way to restore and regenerate lost or damaged urinary bladder tissue. The remodelling of smooth muscle plays a significant ro ...
Pax6, a mammalian homolog of the Drosophila paired box gene family member expressed in stem and progenitor cells, resides at the top of the genetic hierarchy in controlling cell fates and morphogenesis. While Pax6 activation can lead to mitotic arrest, pre ...
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide methods for distributed sensing and centralized reconstruction of two correlated signals, modeled as the input and output of an unknown sparse filtering operation. ...
Canonical Wnt signaling plays a critical role in stem cell maintenance in epithelial homeostasis and carcinogenesis. Here, we show that in the mouse this role is critically mediated by Bcl9/Bcl9l, the mammalian homologues of Legless, which in Drosophila is ...
