Genetic analysis reveals the deep homology between fins and limbs

All vertebrates have the same basic body plan: head, spine, four appendages. Those appendages vary greatly in size, shape, and function, of course -; from fins to wings, arms, and legs -; but a new genetic analysis shows that genes that control development at the ends of the appendages share a deep evolutionary history.

Tough protein connects directly with neurons to cause damaging inflammatory reaction in the brain

Neuroinflammatory diseases, including Alzheimer's disease and traumatic brain injury, have been linked to deposits of a tough protein known as fibrin, derived from the blood clotting factor fibrinogen.

Cell communication determines the specialization of individual cells during development, study shows

In just a few weeks a completely new organism develops from a fertilized egg cell. The real miracle is that a bunch of identical stem cells turns into completely different, specialized cell types.
