A new preprint from our group was posted at bioRxiv: Stress-induced organismal death is genetically regulated by the mTOR-Zeste-Phae1 axis biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Stress-induced organismal death is genetically regulated by the mTOR-Zeste-Phae1 axis

All organisms are exposed to various stressors, which can sometimes lead to organismal death, depending on their intensity. While stress-induced organismal death has been observed in many species,...

Our latest paper by @ItsJoshSurely in collaboration with @cerys_manning has been accepted just in time for Christmas! We show that protrusions present on spinal cord neural progenitors mediate long-range signalling extending it beyond immediate neighbours biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Cellular signalling protrusions enable dynamic distant contacts in spinal cord neurogenesis

In the developing mouse ventral spinal cord, HES5, a transcription factor downstream of Notch signalling, is expressed as evenly spaced clusters of high HES5-expressing neural progenitor cells along...
