Osterix inhibits bone destruction in osteosarcoma through transcriptional repression of Interleukin-1alpha expression (2006)

Cao, Ying

Osteosarcoma, a malignant bone tumor, rapidly destroys the cortical bone. We demonstrated that mouse K7M2 osteosarcoma cells were deficient in osterix (osx), a zinc finger-containing transcription...

Combining Multiple Datasets in a Likelihood Analysis: Which Models are Best? (2002)

Tal Pupko, Dorothe Huchon, Ying Cao, Norihiro Okada, Masami Hasegawa

Until recently, phylogenetic analyses have been routinely based on homologous sequences of a single gene. Given the vast number of gene sequences now available, phylogenetic studies are now based on...

Screening and characterization of novel genes involved in the embryogenesis of Xenoplus laevis (2002)

Cao, Ying

Using a strategy of large-scale whole mount in situ hybridization, three genes were identified from a cDNA library constructed from endoderm-like tissue induced from activin treated animal caps. One...

A Close Relationship of Chiroptera with Eulipotyphla (Core Insectivora) Suggested by Four Mitochondrial Genes (2000)

Michiko Onuma, Ying Cao, Masami Hasegawa, Shinichi Kusakabe

We sequenced the mitochondrial cytochrome b, 12S rRNA and 16S rRNA genes from three insectivoran species (Japanese mole, shrew mole and musk shrew) and one chiropteran species(Japanese pipistrelles)...

Retroposon analysis of major cetacean lineages: The monophyly of toothed whales and the paraphyly of river dolphins

Nikaido, Masato, Matsuno, Fumio, Hamilton, Healy, Brownell, Robert L., Cao, Ying, Ding, Wang, ...

SINE (short interspersed element) insertion analysis elucidates contentious aspects in the phylogeny of toothed whales and dolphins (Odontoceti), especially river dolphins. Here, we characterize 25...

An SP1-like transcription factor Spr2 acts downstream of Fgf signaling to mediate mesoderm induction

Zhao, Jue, Cao, Ying, Zhao, Chengtian, Postlethwait, John, Meng, Anming

Fgf signaling, mediated in part by the transcription factor Brachyury/Xbra/Ntl, plays important roles in mesoderm formation during the early development of vertebrate embryos. We have identified a...

RBP-Jκ/SHARP Recruits CtIP/CtBP Corepressors To Silence Notch Target Genes

Oswald, Franz, Winkler, Michael, Cao, Ying, Astrahantseff, Kathy, Bourteele, Soizic, Knöchel, Walter, ...

Notch is a transmembrane receptor that determines cell fates and pattern formation in all animal species. After ligand binding, proteolytic cleavage steps occur and the intracellular part of Notch...

POU-V factors antagonize maternal VegT activity and β-Catenin signaling in Xenopus embryos

Cao, Ying, Siegel, Doreen, Donow, Cornelia, Knöchel, Sigrun, Yuan, Li, Knöchel, Walter

VegT and β-Catenin are key players in the hierarchy of factors that are required for induction and patterning of mesendoderm in Xenopus embryogenesis. By descending the genetic cascades, cells lose...
