(Submitter supplied) During embryogenesis, the pancreas develops from separate dorsal and ventral buds, which fuse to form the mature pancreas. Little is known about the functional differences between these two buds or the relative contribution of cells derived from each portion to the pancreas after fusion. To follow the fate of dorsal or ventral bud derived cells in the pancreas after fusion, we produced chimeric Elas-GFP transgenic/wild type embryos in which either dorsal or ventral pancreatic bud cells expressed GFP. more...

(Submitter supplied) The pancreas is an exocrine and endocrine endodermal organ involved in digestion and glucose homeostasis. During embryogenesis, the anlagen of the pancreas arise from dorsal and ventral evaginations of the foregut that later fuse to form a single organ. In order to better understand the molecular genetics of early pancreas development, we sought to isolate markers that are uniquely expressed in this tissue. more...

(Submitter supplied) RNA sequencing has allowed high-throughput screening of differential gene expression in many tissues and organisms. Xenopus laevis is a classical embryological and cell-free extract model system, but its genomic sequence had been lacking due to difficulties arising from allotetraploidy. There is currently much excitement surrounding the release of the completed X. laevis genome (version 9.1) by the Joint Genome Institute (JGI), which provides a platform for genome-wide studies. more...

(Submitter supplied) Studies of the Xenopus organizer have laid the foundation for our understanding of the conserved signaling pathways that pattern vertebrate embryos during gastrulation. Here, we use this wealth of knowledge as leverage in the design and analysis of a genomic visualization of organizer-related gene transcription. Using ectopic expression of the two major activities of the organizer, BMP and Wnt inhibition, as well as endogenous tissues, we generate a focused set of samples that represent different aspects of organizer signaling. more...

Analysis of stage 10 early and stage 11.5 late gastrula embryos ectopically expressing Noggin, Dkk-1, or both to induce different aspects of organizer activity. The organizer patterns vertebrate embryos during gastrulation. Results provide insight into organizer function during gastrulation.

(Submitter supplied) Exostosin 1 (Ext1) is a glycosyltransferase involved in the biosynthesis of the extracellular matrix Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycan (HSPG). Knockdown of Ext1 caused gastrulation defects and formation of an abnormal body axis. Since ext1 has been implicated as an indirect contributor to multiple signaling pathways in vertebrate development, microarray was used to identify genes expressed in gastrulae that would be affected by a reduction in ext1 expression. more...

(Submitter supplied) The pancreas of vertebrates is separately derived from both the dorsal and ventral endodermal domains. However, the difference between these two programs has been unclear. Here, using a pancreatic determination gene, Pdx1, driven GFP transgenic mouse strain, we identified Pdx1-GFP highly expressing cells (Pdx1high) and Pdx1-GFP lowly expressing cells (Pdx1low) in both embryonic dorsal Pdx1-expressing region (DPR) and ventral Pdx1-expressing region (VPR). more...

(Submitter supplied) Retinoic acid (RA) is required for pancreas specification in Xenopus and other vertebrates. However, the gene network that is directly induced by RA-signalling in this context remains to be defined. We identified the transcription factor Hnf1β and the Wnt-receptor Fzd4/Fzd4s as direct RA-target genes through RNA-sequencing of in vitro generated pancreatic explants. Functional analyses of Hnf1β and Fzd4/Fzd4s in programmed pancreatic explants and whole embryos revealed their requirement for pancreatic progenitor formation and differentiation. more...

(Submitter supplied) To identify genes with different expression levels in Xenopus laevis embryos of different sizes, RNAseq of middle gastrula RNA of the wild-size and artificially prepared half-size embryos was done. As a result, several genes with drastically different expression between these two types of embryos were found.

(Submitter supplied) The Xenopus POU class V transcription factor XOct-25 has been shown to inhibit BMP-dependent epidermal differentiation and promote neural induction in the ectoderm during early embryogenesis. In order to identify genes that act downstream of XOct-25, transcriptional profile of Xenopus ectodermal cells overexpressing XOct-25 was compared with control cells by using a DNA microarray method.
