T-box transcription factors regulate many developmental processes. Here we report the cloning and expression analysis of ske-T, a novel sea urchin T-box gene. The distribution of the maternal ske-T transcript is uniform in the egg and early embryonic stages while zygotic expression is restricted to the skeletogenic mesenchyme lineage.

The pluripotency-related T-box family transcription factor TBX3 maintains mESC self-renewal and plays a key role in the development of several tissues, including the heart, mammary glands, limbs, and lungs. However, the role of TBX3 during porcine preimplantation embryo development remains unclear. In our research, TBX3 was knocked down by injecting dsRNA to explore the function of TBX3.

Background: Ulnar mammary syndrome (UMS) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by heterozygous pathogenic variants in the T-box transcription factor 3 (TBX3) gene. The phenotype is classically characterized by upper limb defects and apocrine/mammary gland hypoplasia. Endocrine abnormalities include hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH), partial growth hormone deficiency and dysmorphic features, while ectopic pituitary gland and various congenital anomalies have also been described.

The transcription factor Tbx20 is integral to heart development and plays a significant role in various cardiac diseases. Despite its established importance, the regulatory mechanisms and functional significance of Tbx20 remain incompletely understood. To elucidate these mechanisms, we initially conducted eQTL mapping to identify genetic loci associated with Tbx20 expression in heart tissue from BXD mice.

Glycogen Storage Disease Type Ib (GSD-Ib) is a rare autosomal recessive metabolic disorder caused by mutations in SLC37A4, leading to a deficiency in glucose-6-phosphate translocase. This disorder is characterized by impaired glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis, resulting in clinical and metabolic manifestations. We report a three-month-old Moroccan female patient presenting with doll-like facies, hepatomegaly, dysmorphic features, and developmental delays.
