This study uses 3D imaging to show that vascular and nerve patterns differ between dorsal and ventral muscle splitting in chicken forelimbs, indicating distinct local tissue environments for splitting events.

The paper establishes region-specific murine intestinal monolayers to compare transepithelial transport of inorganic iron and NA-Fe, finding greater NA-Fe uptake in proximal jejunum-derived monolayers.

This paper develops a new anti-c-Kit antibody to identify interstitial cells of Cajal in chicken embryos and demonstrates its utility in visualizing ICCs in different gut layers.

The paper maps peristaltic wave origins along the chicken embryonic gut axis, revealing ENS regulation and inter-region cross-talk in gut development.

This paper describes a method for spatio-temporally controlled gene manipulation in developing vasculature using lipid reagents and siRNA, showing successful knockdown of VE-cadherin without heart defects.

This study compares the 3-D patterns of parasympathetic nerves in mouse and chicken lungs during late development, revealing three key similarities in nerve distribution and function.
