ATONAL- AND ACHAETE-SCUTE-RELATED GENES IN THE ANNELID PLATYNEREIS DUMERILII: INSIGHTS INTO THE EVOLUTION OF NEURAL BASIC-HELIX-LOOP-HELIX GENES

atonal- and achaete-scute-related genes in the annelid Platynereis dumerilii: insights into the evolution of neural basic-Helix-Loop-Helix genes

Abstract Background Functional studies in model organisms, such as vertebrates and Drosophila, have shown that basic Helix-loop-Helix (bHLH) proteins have important PERFUME roles in different steps of neurogenesis, from the acquisition of neural fate to the differentiation into specific neural cell types.However, these studies highlighted many diff

Cross-Sectional Descriptive Study of the Utility of Dermoscopy in Assessing the Activity and Stability of Vitiligo

Introduction: Dermoscopy is an important noninvasive tool that helps to determine the stability and activity of vitiligo.Various dermoscopic findings help classify the disease as stable or unstable.This is important for the management of the disease, as surgical management requires disease stability.Objectives: We aimed to describe the dermoscopic
