This study identifies gluconeogenesis in the epidermis and endoderm of Xenopus tropicalis embryos, showing its role in development and highlighting tissue-specific metabolic diversity.

The paper investigates gluconeogenesis in Arctic lamprey development, finding increased glucose levels and distinct gene expression patterns compared to other vertebrates.

This study identifies gluconeogenic activity in the YSL-like tissue of cloudy catshark embryos, suggesting conserved yolk metabolism mechanisms between teleosts and elasmobranchs.
