  • Kaji K, IM Caballero, R MacLeod, J Nichols, VA Wilson, B Hendrich. (2006) The NuRD component Mbd3 is required for pluripotency of embryonic stem cells. 8 (3): 285-292
    Brian Hendrich group found another gene that regulates pluripotency of Embryonic Stem Cells(ESC), which is Mbd3-a component of the nucleosome remodelling and histone deacetylation (NuRD) complex. Mbd3-deficient ESC could grow in the absence of LIF, and differentiate in embryonic bodies or chimeric embryos with loss of terminal differentiation commitment.
  • Sirbu IO, G Duester. (2006) Retinoic-acid signalling in node ectoderm and posterior neural plate directs left-right patterning of somitic mesoderm. 8 (3): 271-277
    Ioan Ovidiu Sirbu & Gregg Duester demonstrate that retinoic-acid signalling is uniform across the left–right axis and occurs in node ectoderm but not node mesoderm. Retinoic acid rescue data show retinoic-acid signaling targets on node ectoderm and posterior neural plate during somitogenesis, but not presomitic mesoderm.
