marks precursors of somatic lineages and is required for germline formation in the sea anemone .

In animals, stem cell populations of varying potency facilitate regeneration and tissue homeostasis. Notably, germline stem cells in both vertebrates and invertebrates express highly conserved RNA binding proteins, such as , , and . In highly regenerative animals, these genes are also expressed in somatic stem cells, which led to the proposal that they had an ancestral role in all stem cells.

Family and developmental history of ADHD patients: a structured clinical routine interview identifies a significant profile.

Similar to other neurodevelopmental disorders, the diagnosis of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is based on clinical and psychosocial assessment. This assessment is performed in clinical practice using the clinical routine interview technique.
