Ets2 is a member of the ETS family of transcription factors. In order to address the developmental function of Ets2, we have examined its expression pattern in E8.5 to E13.5 embryos using RNA whole-mount in situ hybridization. In the paraxial mesoderm, Ets2 is expressed uniformly in the presomitic mesoderm and then restricted to the cells in the rostral portion of the segmenting and the next two recently formed somites. In the developing limb, Ets2 expression in the mesenchyme reflects the progressive formation of the hand or foot plate and the digital skeleton. In addition, Ets2 is expressed in the otic vesicle and its derivatives, the dorsal (posterior) root ganglia, the neuroepithelium in the dorsal part of the caudal neural tube and the inter-segmental vasculature.

Background: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder with a high social burden and limited treatments. Hypoxic condition of the brain is considered an important pathological mechanism of ASD. HIF1A is a key participant in brain hypoxia, but its contribution to the pathophysiological landscape of ASD remains unclear.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is an advancing neurodegenerative disorder distinguished by the formation of amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in the human brain. Nevertheless, the lack of peripheral biomarkers that can detect the development of AD remains a significant limitation.

Objective: The main aim of this work was to discover the molecular markers associated with AD.

Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR), the most common type of diabetic retinopathy, is a main cause of visual and impairment blindness. Abnormal neovascularization, endothelial dysfunction, and vascular inflammation are important mechanisms for the development of PDR. Ets2 regulates angiogenesis-related genes and inflammation, however, the effect of Ets2 in PDR procession has not been clarified.

Poplar trees are crucial for timber and greening, but high levels of salt in the soil have severely limited the yield of poplar. Ethylene response factor (ERF) transcription factors play an important role in growth, development, and stress response in eukaryotes. Our study focused on the PagERF021 gene from Populus alba × P.

Goblet cell differentiation subgroups in colorectal cancer.

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A

October 2024

Department of Oncology, University of Oxford, Oxford OX3 7DQ, United Kingdom.

The poor prognosis of relatively undifferentiated cancers has long been recognized, suggesting that selection against differentiation and in favor of uncontrolled growth is one of the most powerful drivers of cancer progression. Goblet cells provide the mucous surface of the gut, and when present in colorectal cancers (CRC), the cancers are called mucinous. We have used the presence of MUC2, the main mucous product of goblet cells, and an associated gene product, TFF3, to classify a large panel of nearly 80 CRC-derived cell lines into five categories based on their levels of MUC2 and TFF3 expression.
