Journal ArticleDOI
Notch mediates TGFα-induced changes in epithelial differentiation during pancreatic tumorigenesis
Yoshiharu Miyamoto,Anirban Maitra,Bidyut Ghosh,Ulrich Zechner,Pedram Argani,Christine A. Iacobuzio-Donahue,Virote Sriuranpong,Tatsuya Iso,Ingrid M. Meszoely,Michael S. Wolfe,Ralph H. Hruban,Douglas W. Ball,Roland M. Schmid,Steven D. Leach +13 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that Notch mediates the tumor-initiating effects of TG alpha by expanding a population of undifferentiated precursor cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
In Vitro-Differentiated Embryonic Stem Cells Give Rise to Male Gametes that Can Generate Offspring Mice
Karim Nayernia,Jessica Nolte,H. W. Michelmann,Jae Ho Lee,Kristina Rathsack,Nadja Drusenheimer,Arvind Dev,Gerald Wulf,Ingrid Ehrmann,David J. Elliott,Vera Okpanyi,Ulrich Zechner,Thomas Haaf,Andreas Meinhardt,Wolfgang Engel +14 more
TL;DR: This approach provides an accessible in vitro model system for studies of mammalian gametogenesis, as well as for the development of new strategies for the generation of transgenic mice and treatment of infertility.
Journal ArticleDOI
Visualization of the conservation of synteny between humans and pigs by heterologous chromosomal painting
TL;DR: The analysis shows that conservation of synteny between human and pig is three times more than between humans and mice and, consequently, is characterized by fewer, but larger conserved segments.
Journal ArticleDOI
A high density of X-linked genes for general cognitive ability: a run-away process shaping human evolution?
Ulrich Zechner,Monika Wilda,Hildegard Kehrer-Sawatzki,Walther Vogel,Rainald Fundele,Horst Hameister +5 more
TL;DR: The findings indicate that compared with the autosomes, the X chromosome contains a significantly higher number of genes that, when mutated, cause mental impairment and it is proposed that these genes are involved in the development of cognitive abilities and thus exert a large X-chromosome effect on general intelligence in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
SHARP is a novel component of the Notch/RBP‐Jκ signalling pathway
Franz Oswald,Ulrike Kostezka,Kathy Astrahantseff,Soizic Bourteele,Karin Dillinger,Ulrich Zechner,Leopold Ludwig,Monika Wilda,Horst Hameister,Walter Knöchel,Susanne Liptay,Roland M. Schmid +11 more
TL;DR: A model in which SHARP is a novel component of the HDAC corepressor complex, recruited by RBP‐Jκ to repress transcription of target genes in the absence of activated Notch is proposed.
