Loss of polr1c disrupts myelination in a zebrafish model of POLR1C-associated disease

Lauren B. Sands, Camille E. A. Goo, Laura K. White, Bailey T. Lubash, Mary Cathleen McKinney, Fengli Guo, Chris W. Seidel, Xia Zhao, Paul A. Trainor, Kristin E. Noack Watt

This study shows that loss of polr1c in zebrafish causes reduced myelination and craniofacial defects, with Tp53 pathway activation but no apoptosis in oligodendrocyte precursors.

Graded FGF activity patterns distinct cell types within the apical sensory organ of the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis

Keith Z. Sabin, Shiyuan Chen, Eric M. Hill, Kyle J. Weaver, Jacob Yonker, MaryEllen Kirkman, Bret Redwine, Anna M. L. Klompen, Xia Zhao, Fengli Guo, Cathy McKinney, Jessica L. Dewey, Matthew C. Gibson

The paper identifies two cell types in the sea anemone's apical sensory organ and shows FGF signaling regulates their development through a gene regulatory network.
