“Knocking out spo11 in chicken arrests meiosis but does not prevent further development of germ cells” Knockout of the mouse spo11 prevents double-strand breaks and formation of synaptonemal complex during meiosis. As a result, the development of spermatocytes is arrested at zygotene and the arrested cells undergo apoptosis. Not so in the chicken. Here, although…

“Splicing in the world of marine diplonemids” Recent surveys of marine biodiversity have revealed the abundance and diversity of planktonic diplonemids. By sequencing the genomes and transcriptomes of six marine diplonemids and performing comprehensive splice site analyses, we identified numerous non-canonical introns and mapped their common features, shedding light on the evolution of RNA splicing…

“Role of pax6 genes in the eye during embryonal development of medaka” Pax6 is remarkably conserved across a wide range of species, from flies to humans, signifying its fundamental role in the regulatory network governing eye formation. In this presentation, we will delve into the functions of three pax6 genes – Pax6.1, Pax6.2, and Pax6.3…

Subpopulations of NG2 glia in the adult mouse brain after focal cerebral ischemia. Lecturer: Mgr. Tomáš Knotek / Department of Cellular Neurophysiology Annotation: Glia expressing NG2 antigen are known predominantly as precursors of oligodendrocytes. However, their differentiation potential in tissue affected by ischemic injury has not yet been fully explored. To further our understanding of these cells, we…

“Transmembrane adaptor protein OPAL1 regulates leukocyte hematopoiesis and thymus development” Expression of transmembrane adaptor protein Outcome predictor of acute leukemia 1 (OPAL1), has been linked to the ETV6-RUNX1 translocation and favorable prognosis in childhood leukemia. Our research also suggests that it has an important role in leukocyte development. We show that in mice with germline…

"Targeting plectin-mediated cytoskeletal crosstalk in hepatocellular carcinoma" Anotace: The study's findings indicate that the elevation of plectin in tumor hepatocytes is associated with the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This progression can be inhibited through genetic or pharmacological targeting of plectin. The oncogenic and invasive potentials of HCC cells are attenuated through plectin ablation, suggesting…

“Janus Kinase 2 (JAK2) mutations: implications for blood diseases” The project aims to elucidate the impact of the germline Jak2 R1063H variant on myeloproliferative disorders and its potential implication in myeloid malignancy predisposition. Utilizing a mouse model harboring the Jak2 R1063H mutation, we observed higher mortality rate, elevated D-dimer levels indicative of thrombotic events, and…
