Abstract
Neural crest cells are a vertebrate innovation and form a wide variety of embryonic cell types as diverse as peripheral neurons and facial skeleton. They undergo complex migration and differentiation processes from their site of origin in the developing central nervous system to their final destinations in the periphery. In this review, we summarize recent data on the current formulation of a gene regulatory network underlying neural crest formation and its roots at the base of the vertebrate lineage. Analyzing neural crest formation from a gene regulatory viewpoint provides insights into both the developmental mechanisms and evolutionary origins of this vertebrateβspecific cell type. genesis 46:673β682, 2008.

Over the last few years, counselor training has focused more on formal diagnosis, but this increased focus has been questioned. In the end, the question seems less about whether formal diagnosis will be taught and more about how it will be taught. The author argues that diagnosis should be taught fr
## Abstract DNA doubleβstrand breaks (DSBs) are extremely hazardous lesions for all DNAβbearing organisms and the mechanisms of DSB repair are highly conserved. In the eukaryotic mitotic cell cycle, DSBs are often present following DNA replication while, in meiosis, hundreds of DSBs are generated a
Background: Osteopontin previously has been shown to be expressed in the early notochord and rostral hindbrain during formation of the rat neuraxis. Both of these sites are known to have important organizing capacities associated with the expression of a number of transcription factors and secreted
