  2. 1. Grainy head target genes in epithelial morphogenesis and wound healing

    Author : Shenqiu Wang; Christos Samakovlis; Paul Martin; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; grh; targets; epidermal wound repair; tracheal tube size control; local immune responses; stit; verm; serp; PGRP-LC; CecA-LacZ; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental Biology;

    Abstract : grainy head (grh) genes encode a family of transcription factors conserved from fly to human. Drosophila grh is the founding member of this gene family and has multiple functions, including tracheal tube size control, epidermal barrier formation and reconstruction after wounding. READ MORE

  4. 2. Genome-wide identification of Grainy head target genes and their functions in Drosophila embryos

    Author : Liqun Yao; Christos Samakovlis; Ruth Palmer; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Grainy head; Stitcher; Vvl; wound healing; Tracheal development; Drosophila; utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental Biology;

    Abstract : The transcription factor Grainy head (Grh) is conserved from Drosophila to humans. Drosophila Grh plays important roles in epithelial differentiation and regeneration. READ MORE

  5. 3. Genetic dissection of tubulogenesis in the Drosophila trachea

    Author : Johanna Hemphälä; Christos Samakovlis; Reinhard Schuh; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Drosophila; trachea; transposon mutagenesis screen; fusion; Dpp; Delta; tubular dimensions; Grainyhead; Krotzkopf verkehrt; intralumenal matrix; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi;

    Abstract : The formation of branched tubular organs, such as the mammalian lung kidney and vascular system, is an essential process in animal development. The Drosophila tracheal (respiratory) system provides a genetic model system to study the highly ordered process of branch outgrowth and fusion required to form continuous tubular networks. READ MORE
