Roles of Extracellular Superoxide Dismutase in Regulating Cell Migration and Vesicle Trafficking in Dictyostelium and Mammalian Cells Superoxide dismutases (SODs) are key regulators of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and redox balance. Although intracellular SODs have been extensively studied, growing attention has been directed towa....

Expression of hox Genes and Genes Related to Limb Development During the Homeotic Transformation of Tails Into Limbs Induced by Vitamin A in the Anuran Rana ornativentris To investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying ectopic limb development, we quantified the expression of genes related to normal limb positioning and development. We observed the downregulation o...

Histone Demethylation Activity of UTX Contributes to the Regulation of Steroid Biosynthesis Genes in Embryonic Gonads but Is Dispensable for Gonadal Sex Determination Mammalian sex is determined by the presence or absence of a Y chromosome. The sex-specific features of each cell and tissue in the body then develop in response to the sex hormones secreted by the di...
