TL;DR: The data demonstrate that human cortical neurons generated in vitro from ESC/iPSC can develop complex hodological properties characteristic of the cerebral cortex in vivo, thereby offering unprecedented opportunities for the modeling of human cortex diseases and brain repair.

TL;DR: The construction of the first complete genetic linkage map of the laboratory rat is reported, identifying 432 markers that show polymorphisms between the SHR and BN rat strains and mapped them in a single SHR × BN F2 intercross.
Abstract: We report the construction of the first complete genetic linkage map of the laboratory rat. By testing 1171 simple sequence length polymorphisms (SSLPs), we have identified 432 markers that show polymorphisms between the SHR and BN rat strains and mapped them in a single (SHR × BN) F2 intercross. The loci define 21 large linkage groups corresponding to the 21 rat chromosomes, together with a pair of nearby markers on chromosome 9 that are not linked to the rest of the map. Because 99.5% of the markers fall into one of the 21 large linkage groups, the maps appear to cover the vast majority of the rat genome. The availability of the map should facilitate whole genome scans for genes underlying qualitative and quantitative traits relevant to mammalian physiology and pathobiology.

TL;DR: This review discusses how the concept of CSCs has been defined, what assays are currently used to define the functional properties of C SCs, what intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms regulate CSC functions, how plastic CSC's are, and the importance of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in conferring CSC properties.
Abstract: Different mechanisms contribute to intratumor heterogeneity, including genetic mutations, the microenvironment, and the existence of subpopulations of cancer cells with increased renewal capacity and the ability to recapitulate the heterogeneity found in primary tumors, which are referred to as cancer stem cells (CSCs). In this review, we discuss how the concept of CSCs has been defined, what assays are currently used to define the functional properties of CSCs, what intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms regulate CSC functions, how plastic CSCs are, and the importance of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in conferring CSC properties. Finally, we discuss the mechanisms by which CSCs may resist medical therapy and contribute to tumor relapse.
