Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) comprise a large family of developmental and physiological
signaling molecules. All FGFs have a high affinity for the glycosaminoglycan heparin and for …

''Fibroblast growth factor''(FGF) was first identified 25 years ago as a mitogenic activity in
pituitary extracts (Armelin 1973; Gospodarowicz 1974). This modest observation …

Wing imaginal disc cells in Drosophila develop by using information received from a
signaling center associated with the anterior/posterior compartment border. We show here …

Nanoplastics at environmentally relevant concentrations (ERCs) could cause
transgenerational toxicity on organisms. Caenorhabditis elegans is an important model for …

Morphogenesis of the mouse lung involves reciprocal interactions between the epithelial
endoderm and the surrounding mesenchyme, leading to an invariant early pattern of …

Kinase translocation reporters (KTRs) are genetically encoded fluorescent activity sensors
that convert kinase activity into a nucleocytoplasmic shuttling equilibrium for visualizing …

During nervous system development, neurons form reproducible synapses onto specific
targets. Here, we analyze the development of stereotyped synapses of the C. elegans HSNL …

The Caenorhabditis elegans vulva is an important paradigm for cell-cell interactions in
animal development. The fates of six vulval precursor cells are patterned through the action …

Synaptic connections in the nervous system are directed onto specific cellular and
subcellular targets. Synaptic guidepost cells in the C. elegans vulval epithelium drive …

ABSTRACT C. elegans cki-1 encodes a member of the CIP/KIP family of cyclin-dependent
kinase inhibitors, and functions to link postembryonic developmental programs to cell cycle …
