Foglio B, Rossini L, Garbelli R, Regondi M, Mercurio S, Bertacchi M, et al.
Brain Struct Funct . 2021 Mar; 226(4):1303-1322. PMID: 33661352
The neocortex, the most recently evolved brain region in mammals, is characterized by its unique areal and laminar organization. Distinct cortical layers and areas can be identified by the presence...

Zhang Y, Wong C, Birnbaum R, Li G, Favaro R, Ngan C, et al.
Nature . 2013 Nov; 504(7479):306-310. PMID: 24213634
In multicellular organisms, transcription regulation is one of the central mechanisms modelling lineage differentiation and cell-fate determination. Transcription requires dynamic chromatin configurations between promoters and their corresponding distal regulatory elements....

Bardot E, Valdes V, Zhang J, Perdigoto C, Nicolis S, Hearn S, et al.
EMBO J . 2013 May; 32(14):1990-2000. PMID: 23673358
While the Polycomb complex is known to regulate cell identity in ES cells, its role in controlling tissue-specific stem cells is not well understood. Here we show that removal of...

Ahlfeld J, Favaro R, Pagella P, Kretzschmar H, Nicolis S, Schuller U
Cancer Res . 2013 Apr; 73(12):3796-807. PMID: 23596255
The transcription factor Sox2 has been shown to play essential roles during embryonic development as well as in cancer. To more precisely understand tumor biology and to identify potential therapeutical...

Campolo F, Gori M, Favaro R, Nicolis S, Pellegrini M, Botti F, et al.
Stem Cells . 2013 Apr; 31(7):1408-21. PMID: 23553930
Sox2 is a pluripotency-conferring gene expressed in primordial germ cells (PGCs) and postnatal oocytes, but the role it plays during germ cell development and early embryogenesis is unknown. Since Sox2...

Clavel C, Grisanti L, Zemla R, Rezza A, Barros R, Sennett R, et al.
Dev Cell . 2012 Nov; 23(5):981-94. PMID: 23153495
How dermal papilla (DP) niche cells regulate hair follicle progenitors to control hair growth remains unclear. Using Tbx18(Cre) to target embryonic DP precursors, we ablate the transcription factor Sox2 early...

Ortensi B, Osti D, Pellegatta S, Pisati F, Brescia P, Fornasari L, et al.
Stem Cells . 2012 Feb; 30(5):817-32. PMID: 22311806
The invasive nature of glioblastoma (GBM) is one important reason for treatment failure. GBM stem/progenitor cells retain the migratory ability of normal neural stem/progenitor cells and infiltrate the brain parenchyma....

Adameyko I, Lallemend F, Furlan A, Zinin N, Aranda S, Kitambi S, et al.
Development . 2011 Dec; 139(2):397-410. PMID: 22186729
The cellular origin and molecular mechanisms regulating pigmentation of head and neck are largely unknown. Melanocyte specification is controlled by the transcriptional activity of Mitf, but no general logic has...
