Simple Summary DLX homeobox family genes encode transcription factors that have
indispensable roles in embryonic and postnatal development. These genes are critically …

Forebrain development in vertebrates is regulated by transcription factors encoded by
homeobox, bHLH and forkhead gene families throughout the progressive and overlapping …

MEF2 transcription factors are well-established regulators of muscle development. We have
discovered an unanticipated role for MEF2C in the neural crest, where tissue-specific …

Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are pervasive neurodevelopmental disorders entailing
social and cognitive deficits, including marked problems with language. Numerous genes …

Lower jaw development is a complex process in which multiple signaling cascades
establish a proximal-distal organization. These cascades are regulated both spatially and …

This paper aims to explore a potential connection between two hypotheses recently put
forward in the context of language evolution. One hypothesis argues that some human …

Schizophrenia (SZ) is a pervasive neurodevelopmental disorder that entails social and
cognitive deficits, including marked language problems. Its complex multifactorial …

Extensive studies on tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) are helpful to understand the
pathogenesis of cancer and design effective treatments. However, identifying TSGs using …

The striatum controls behaviors via the activity of direct and indirect pathway projection
neurons (dSPN and iSPN) that are intermingled in all compartments. While such cellular …

The apparent evolvability of the vertebrate head skeleton has allowed a diverse array of
shapes, sizes, and compositions of the head in order to better adapt species to their …
