Requirement for Wnt and FGF signaling in Xenopus tadpole tail regeneration by Lin, Gufa, Slack, Jonathan M.W.

“…We have investigated the requirement for the FGF and Wnt/beta-catenin pathways for Xenopus tadpole tail regeneration. Pathways were modified either by…”

Control of muscle regeneration in the Xenopus tadpole tail by Pax7 by Chen, Ying, Lin, Gufa, Slack, Jonathan M W

“…The tail of the Xenopus tadpole will regenerate completely after transection. Much of the mass of the regenerate is composed of skeletal muscle, but there has…”

Transformation of jaw muscle satellite cells to cardiomyocytes by Daughters, Randall S., Keirstead, Susan A., Slack, Jonathan M.W.

“…In the embryo a population of progenitor cells known as the second heart field forms not just parts of the heart but also the jaw muscles of the head. Here we…”

Origin of muscle satellite cells in the Xenopus embryo by Daughters, Randall S, Chen, Ying, Slack, Jonathan M W

“…We have studied the origin of muscle satellite cells in embryos of Xenopus laevis. Fate mapping at the open neural plate stage was carried out using orthotopic…”

Transgenic Analysis of Signaling Pathways Required for Xenopus Tadpole Spinal Cord and Muscle Regeneration by Lin, Gufa, Chen, Ying, Slack, Jonathan M.W.

“…The Xenopus tadpole has the capacity fully to regenerate its tail after amputation. Previously, we have established that this regeneration process requires the…”

Regeneration of neural crest derivatives in the Xenopus tadpole tail by Lin, Gufa, Chen, Ying, Slack, Jonathan M W

“…After amputation of the Xenopus tadpole tail, a functionally competent new tail is regenerated. It contains spinal cord, notochord and muscle, each of which…”

Micro-Computed Tomography for Visualizing Limb Skeletal Regeneration in Young Xenopus Frogs by Chen, Ying, Lin, Gufa, Chen, Yungchung, Fok, Alex, Slack, Jonathan M.W.

“…For studies of vertebrate limb regeneration it is often desirable to visualize the regenerated skeleton, which is mostly cartilage, and also section the…”

All-trans retinoic acid suppresses exocrine differentiation and branching morphogenesis in the embryonic pancreas by Shen, Chia-Ning, Marguerie, Anita, Chien, Chiao-Yun, Dickson, Clive, Slack, Jonathan M.W., Tosh, David

“…Recent evidence has shown that retinoic acid (RA) signalling is required for early pancreatic development in zebrafish and frog but its role in later…”
