Out On A Limb
Out On A Limb I'm up to my elbows in a work project right now where I'm creating an application from scratch. Haven't had much to say because of it. I'm doing all my creative thinking in C# which leaves me pretty brain dead after a few hours. So you see I'm kind of out on a limb as far as witty comments and snarly remarks. Will try harder next week when I'm back at NodedNorth.


All in the Mind: 18 June 2005 - Social Prosthetics ? How You're On My Mind
deusx : All in the Mind: 18 June 2005 - Social Prosthetics ? How You're On My Mind - "Our relationships with others are akin to social prosthetics for the mind, argues one leading Harvard psychologist. We?re hardwired to care as much as we are to compete, says another, and the clues lie in the biology of our brains."

Cooperative and antagonistic interactions between Sall4 and Tbx5 pattern the mouse limb and heart.
Publication Date: 2005 Dec 25 PMID: 16380715Authors: Koshiba-Takeuchi, K. - Takeuchi, J. K. - Arruda, E. P. - Kathiriya, I. S. - Mo, R. - Hui, C. C. - Srivastava, D. - Bruneau, B. G.Journal: Nat GenetHuman mutations in TBX5, a gene encoding a T-box transcription factor, and SALL4, a gene encoding a zinc-finger transcription factor, cause similar upper limb and heart defects. Here we show that Tbx5 regulates Sall4 expression in the developing mouse forelimb and heart; mice heterozygous for a gene trap allele of Sall4 show limb and heart defects that model human disease. Tbx5 and Sall4 interact both positively and negatively to finely regulate patterning and morphogenesis of the anterior forelimb and heart. Thus, a positive and negative feed-forward circuit between Tbx5 and Sall4 ensures precise patterning of embryonic limb and heart and provides a unifying mechanism for heart/hand syndromes.
