Xenopus laevis

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Auditory perception exhibits sexual dimorphism and left telencephalic dominance in Xenopus laevis
    Yanzhu Fan, Xizi Yue, Fei Xue, Jianguo Cui, Steven E. Brauth, Yezhong Tang, Guangzhan Fang
    Biology Open 2018 7: bio035956 doi: 10.1242/bio.035956 Published 3 December 2018

    Summary: Investigation of auditory neural mechanisms in the South African clawed frog (Xenopus laevis) indicates that auditory perception exhibits sexual dimorphism and left telencephalic advantage.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Lithobates catesbeianus (American Bullfrog) oocytes: a novel heterologous expression system for aquaporins
    Jessica Kabutomori, Olivia Beloto-Silva, R. Ryan Geyer, Raif Musa-Aziz
    Biology Open 2018 7: bio031880 doi: 10.1242/bio.031880 Published 29 March 2018

    Summary: A unique and highly available heterologous expression system using Lithobates catesbeianus oocytes has been developed for researchers who have restricted or prohibited access to Xenopus laevis frogs and/or oocytes.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Frizzled-7 is required for Xenopus heart development
    Muhammad Abu-Elmagd, Joanna Mulvaney, Grant N. Wheeler
    Biology Open 2017 6: 1861-1868; doi: 10.1242/bio.026963

    Summary: Wnt signalling has been shown to be important in heart development. Here, we demonstrate that the wnt receptor fzd7 is required in mediating these Wnt signals.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    The role of nitric oxide during embryonic epidermis development of Xenopus laevis
    Silvie Tomankova, Pavel Abaffy, Radek Sindelka
    Biology Open 2017 6: 862-871; doi: 10.1242/bio.023739

    Summary: Embryonic epidermis development is influenced by nitric oxide, where it has been linked to the development of ionocytes, multi-ciliated cells and small secretory cells.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Xenopus laevis Kif18A is a highly processive kinesin required for meiotic spindle integrity
    Martin M. Möckel, Andreas Heim, Thomas Tischer, Thomas U. Mayer
    Biology Open 2017 6: 463-470; doi: 10.1242/bio.023952

    Summary: The highly processive kinesin Kif18A, which is expressed during oocyte maturation in Xenopus laevis, is required for correct spindle formation in meiotic egg extracts and can functionally complement human Kif18A in tissue culture cells.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Metabolic cost of osmoregulation in a hypertonic environment in the invasive African clawed frog Xenopus laevis
    Isaac Peña-Villalobos, Cristóbal Narváez, Pablo Sabat
    Biology Open 2016 5: 955-961; doi: 10.1242/bio.016543

    Summary: A significant increase in energy expenditure of Xenopus laevis exposed to hyperosmotic conditions is associated with urea concentration and a long-term effect of increasing the metabolic enzyme activities of liver and heart.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Highly efficient gene knockout by injection of TALEN mRNAs into oocytes and host transfer in Xenopus laevis
    Keisuke Nakajima, Yoshio Yaoita
    Biology Open 2015 4: 180-185; doi: 10.1242/bio.201410009
  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Significant modulation of the hepatic proteome induced by exposure to low temperature in Xenopus laevis
    Kazumichi Nagasawa, Yuta Tanizaki, Takehito Okui, Atsuko Watarai, Shinobu Ueda, Takashi Kato
    Biology Open 2013 2: 1057-1069; doi: 10.1242/bio.20136106
  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    High efficiency TALENs enable F0 functional analysis by targeted gene disruption in Xenopus laevis embryos
    Ken-ichi T. Suzuki, Yukiko Isoyama, Keiko Kashiwagi, Tetsushi Sakuma, Hiroshi Ochiai, Naoaki Sakamoto, Nobuaki Furuno, Akihiko Kashiwagi, Takashi Yamamoto
    Biology Open 2013 2: 448-452; doi: 10.1242/bio.20133855
