A non-AUG translational initiation in c-myc exon 1 generates an N-terminally distinct protein whose synthesis is disrupted in Burkitt's lymphomas
TL;DR: These findings show that the two c-myc proteins are derived from alternative translational initiations at the exon 2 AUG and at a non-AUG codon near the 3' end of exon 1, resulting in the production of proteins with distinct N termini.

Inflammation and immunity in organ regeneration.
TL;DR: New information and better understanding regarding the neuroendocrine-immune axis in the response to stressors, including amputation, suggest additional approaches useful for investigating effects of the immune system during repair and regeneration.
Changes in the Inflammatory Response to Injury and Its Resolution during the Loss of Regenerative Capacity in Developing Xenopus Limbs
TL;DR: In Xenopus hindlimbs postamputation inflammation and its resolution change during development, with little effect on cellular dedifferentiation or reprogramming, but potentially interfering with the expression of genes required for blastema patterning.
The Developing Xenopus Limb as a Model for Studies on the Balance between Inflammation and Regeneration
TL;DR: It is suggested that although injury‐related events sensitive to glucocorticoids are necessary for regeneration, resolution of the inflammatory response may also be required to allow the complete regenerative response and normal blastema patterning.

Expression of the c-myc proto-oncogene during development of Xenopus laevis.
TL;DR: Xenopus laevis c-myc RNA levels show a significant decline and then reaccumulate continuously throughout the remainder of premorphogenic development, and at the early neurula stage of embryogenesis the pattern of c- myc RNA expression is elevated in the mesoderm with respect to the endoderm and ectoderm.
