The neural crest and craniofacial placodes are two distinct progenitor populations that arise
at the border of the vertebrate neural plate. This border region develops through a series of …

The liver performs a large number of essential synthetic and regulatory functions that are
acquired during fetal development and persist throughout life. Their disruption underlies a …

Background & Aims Biliary epithelial cells (BECs) are considered to be a source of
regenerating hepatocytes when hepatocyte proliferation is compromised. However, there is …

Mechanisms underlying cell-type-specific response to morphogens or signaling molecules
during embryonic development are poorly understood. To learn how response to the liver …

All mature pancreatic cell types arise from organ-specific multipotent progenitor cells.
Although previous studies have identified cell-intrinsic and-extrinsic cues for progenitor cell …

The pancreaticobiliary ductal system connects the liver and pancreas to the intestine. It is
composed of the hepatopancreatic ductal (HPD) system as well as the intrahepatic biliary …

Wnt/β-catenin signaling plays key roles not only during development but also in adult tissue
homeostasis. This is also evident in liver biology where many temporal roles of β-catenin …

Dysfunction of pancreatic δ cells contributes to the etiology of diabetes. Despite their
important role, human δ cells are scarce, limiting physiological studies and drug discovery …

During coordinated development of two neighboring organs from the same germ layer, how
precursors of one organ resist the inductive signals of the other to avoid being misinduced to …

This paper describes an intervention in which pre-service teachers developed their TPACK
through multiple data sources. Teachers' self-reports of their TPACK knowledge were …
