Cellular preservation of musculoskeletal specializations in the Cretaceous bird Confuciusornis (2017)
Journal Article
Jiang, B. Y., Zhao, T., Regnault, S., Edwards, N. P., Kohn, S. C., Li, Z. H., …Hutchinson, J. R. (2017). Cellular preservation of musculoskeletal specializations in the Cretaceous bird Confuciusornis. Nature Communications, 8, 14779. https://doi.org/10.1038/ncomms14779

The hindlimb of theropod dinosaurs changed appreciably in the lineage leading to extant birds, becoming more ‘crouched’ in association with changes to body shape and gait dynamics. This postural evolution included anatomical changes of the foot and a... Read More about Cellular preservation of musculoskeletal specializations in the Cretaceous bird Confuciusornis.

Journal Article
Whittaker, D. E., Riegman, K. L. H., Kasah, S., Mohan, C., Yu, T., Sala, B. P., …Basson, M. A. (2017). The chromatin remodeling factor CHD7 controls cerebellar development by regulating reelin expression. Journal of Clinical Investigation, 127(3), 874-887. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI83408

The mechanisms underlying the neurodevelopmental deficits associated with CHARGE syndrome, which include cerebellar hypoplasia, developmental delay, coordination problems, and autistic features, have not been identified. CHARGE syndrome has been asso... Read More about The chromatin remodeling factor CHD7 controls cerebellar development by regulating reelin expression.

Regional differentiation of felid vertebral column evolution: a study of 3D shape trajectories (2017)
Journal Article

Control of Mitochondrial Remodeling by the ATPase Inhibitory Factor 1 Unveils a Pro-survival Relay via OPA1 (2017)
Journal Article
Faccenda, D., Nakamura, J., Gorini, G., Dhoot, G. K., Piacentini, M., Yoshida, M., & Campanella, M. (2017). Control of Mitochondrial Remodeling by the ATPase Inhibitory Factor 1 Unveils a Pro-survival Relay via OPA1. Cell Reports, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.celrep.2017.01.070

The ubiquitously expressed ATPase inhibitory factor 1 (IF1) is a mitochondrial protein that blocks the reversal of the F1Fo-ATPsynthase, preventing dissipation of cellular ATP and ischemic damage. IF1 suppresses programmed cell death, enhancing tumor... Read More about Control of Mitochondrial Remodeling by the ATPase Inhibitory Factor 1 Unveils a Pro-survival Relay via OPA1.

The role of embryo movement in the development of the furcula (2017)
Journal Article
Pollard, A. S., Boyd, S., McGonnell, I. M., & Pitsillides, A. A. (2017). The role of embryo movement in the development of the furcula. Journal of Anatomy, 230(3), 435-443. https://doi.org/10.1111/joa.12571

The pectoral girdle is a complex structure which varies in its morphology between species. A major component in birds is the furcula, which can be considered equivalent to a fusion of the paired clavicles found in many mammals, and the single intercl...
