Migration of cardiomyocytes is essential for heart regeneration in zebrafish.
Junji Itou,Isao Oishi,Hiroko Kawakami,Tiffany J. Glass,Jenna Richter,Austin Johnson,Troy C. Lund,Yasuhiko Kawakami +7 more
TL;DR: It is shown that pharmacological blocking of Cxcr4 function as well as genetic loss of cxcr4b function causes failure to regenerate the heart after ventricular resection, and that coordination of both processes is necessary for heart regeneration.
Variation in the Phototherapy Practices and Irradiance of Devices in a Major Metropolitan Area.
Amy R Borden,Katie Satrom,Paul Wratkowski,Thomas N. George,Constance A Adkisson,Hendrik J. Vreman,Austin Johnson,Kent J Nichols,Tina M. Slusher +8 more
TL;DR: Despite established PT guidelines, local protocols and practices vary and straightforward changes, such as decreasing the distance between an infant and the light source and establishing a consistent irradiance-based protocol, could substantially improve the quality of the intervention.

Recent advances in the study of limb development: the emergence and function of the apical ectodermal ridge.
TL;DR: Recent advances in combination with relevant previous studies in the development and function of the apical ectodermal ridge are reviewed, focusing on chick and mouse embryos.

Characterization of cis-regulatory elements for Fgf10 expression in the chick embryo.
TL;DR: The proximal 0.34‐kb promoter has activities to drive expression in restricted areas of the brain, while Fgf10 is detected in broader region in the brain.
