This article uncovers a natural, programmable metamaterial in the developing Drosophila eye. The precise 3D curvature of the adult compound eye is programmed during development by a microscopic, 2D tr...

Studies on Hox13, Fgf10, and Tbx4 mutant newts with hindlimb defects showed a novel function of Hox13 in regulating outgrowth of the newt hindlimb bud through interaction with Fgf10 and Tbx4.

Although the differentiation of cardiac progenitors during embryogenesis has been characterized in detail in the ascidian Ciona robusta, heart development after metamorphosis remains unclear. The sub...

We developed a high-time resolution system using a piezoresistive sensor to measure brain intraventricular pressure in mouse embryos (E12.5 to E16.5). Ex utero measurements revealed a constant baseli...

Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) signaling is essential for cardiac development, influencing left–right asymmetry, cardiomyocyte differentiation, and heart morphogenesis, particularly in second heart field proge...

We review the molecular mechanisms of the interaction between the mTOR and Hippo pathways in mammals and Drosophila. Moreover, we discuss the advantage of this interaction in terms of tissue growth a...

The migration of neurons in developing cerebral and cerebellar cortices is accompanied by massive DNA double-strand breaks due to mechanostress during passage through narrow interstitial spaces.

物質－細胞統合システム拠点（iCeMS＝アイセムス）は、物質－細胞統合科学という新たな学際領域を創出し、科学者のキャリア形成における国際的ハブとなる事を目指します。

Summary: This Editorial offers an honest look at impact factor trends in developmental biology, explains how Development serves its community, and makes the case that sustaining developmental biology ...

Amphibians exhibit two remarkable biological phenomena: regeneration and metamorphosis. The ability to regenerate damaged body parts, such as the limbs, and to remodel organs—such as tail resorption ...

Temporal gene expression systems are widely used to examine gene functions at specific developmental stages. The heat-inducible gene expression system, which uses a heat shock promoter with evolution...

During anuran metamorphosis, rapid and extensive morphological transformations occur throughout the body, and these changes are triggered by the thyroid hormone. The thyroid hormone receptor (TR) is ...
