Journal ArticleDOI
Recruitment of bone-marrow-derived cells by skeletal and cardiac muscle in adult dystrophic mdx mice.
Reginald E. Bittner,Christian Schöfer,Klara Weipoltshammer,Silva Ivanova,Berthold Streubel,E. Hauser,Michael Freilinger,Harald Höger,Adelheid Elbe-Bürger,Franz Wachtler +9 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that further characterization and identification of the BM cells capable of undergoing myogenic differentiation may have an outstanding impact on therapeutic strategies for diseases of skeletal and cardiac muscle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mutations in the human |[alpha]|-tectorin gene cause autosomal dominant non-syndromic hearing impairment
Kristien Verhoeven,Lut Van Laer,Karin Kirschhofer,P. Kevin Legan,David C. Hughes,Isabelle Schatteman,M. Verstreken,Peter Van Hauwe,Paul Coucke,Achih Chen,Richard J.H. Smith,Thomas Somers,F. Erwin Offeciers,Paul Van de Heyning,Guy P. Richardson,Franz Wachtler,William J. Kimberling,Patrick Willems,Paul J. Govaerts,Guy Van Camp +19 more
TL;DR: The findings indicate that mutations in TECTA are responsible for hearing impairment in these families, and implicate a new type of protein in the pathogenesis of hearing impairment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Site of transcription of ribosomal RNA and intranucleolar structure in HeLa cells
TL;DR: After dispersing the granular component and the dense fibrillar component by a hypotonic treatment, removal of most chromatin and preparation of resinless sections, fibrillsar centres remained fixed to a nucleoskeleton and are incorporated into a model for rRNA transcription.
Journal ArticleDOI
The nucleolus: A structural and functional interpretation
Franz Wachtler,André Stahl +1 more
TL;DR: This review addresses the problem of understanding nucleolar morphology in terms of nucleolar function by reviewing in situ-cytochemical results that have not led to a generally accepted view on the structure-function correlation for nucleoli.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the position of nucleolus organizer regions (NORs) in interphase nuclei: Studies with a new, non-autoradiographic in situ hybridization method
TL;DR: The distribution of 18S and 28S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) was visualized in interphases and metaphases of non-stimulated and phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-stimulated human lymphocytes with a recently developed non-autoradiographic in situ hybridization method, indicating the occurrence of movements of the NORs within the nucleus, depending on their transcriptional activity.
