To address this gap, this study investigated the roles of Idh1 and Idh2 in kidney development in Xenopus laevis. Both genes were expressed in the pronephric region, and morpholino-mediated knockdown caused pronephric defects, which were more severe in idh1-depleted embryos. Wild-type idh1* mRNA restored pronephric marker expression, confirming specificity. Notably, the oncogenic idh1*R132H variant also rescued the pronephric defects induced by idh1 knockdown, indicating that its neomorphic activity is absent under embryonic metabolic conditions. These findings identify Idh1 and Idh2 as key regulators of pronephric morphogenesis and reveal a developmental function of Idh1 that is distinct from its canonical catalytic role.","PeriodicalId":72791,"journal":{"name":"Development & reproduction","volume":"30 1","pages":"39-46"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13077505/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147693993","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since the establishment and characterization of human embryonic stem cell lines by James Thomson in 1998, stem cell research has expanded rapidly, accelerating industrialization through the strategic protection of intellectual property (IP) rights. As technological specialization and clinical trial expansion have progressed-particularly since 2015-the feasibility of commercialization has increased. However, IP analyses in the stem cell field have largely been limited to fragmented patent trend studies. This study analyzed the characteristics and limitations of stem cell-based IP and examined the correlations among scientific publications, patent activity, and clinical trials by stem cell type from 2000 to 2020. The findings revealed significant differences among stem cell categories. In particular, adult stem cells (ASCs) demonstrated strong positive correlations between patent filings and SCI-indexed publications (R2=0.947), as well as between patent activity and clinical trials (R2=0.945), suggesting a high level of technological maturity and translational potential. In contrast, embryonic and induced pluripotent stem cells showed relatively weaker correlations. The results indicate that ASC-based IP is closely associated with clinical development and commercialization potential. This study provides strategic insights into the potential for proactive commercialization based on the importance of patents in the stem cell therapeutic industry.","PeriodicalId":72791,"journal":{"name":"Development & reproduction","volume":"30 1","pages":"47-69"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13086561/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147724770","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To clarify their role in gamete function and embryo development, the present study examined the influence of NCQDs on sperm activation, fertilization, and early embryo development in vitro using a mouse model. At a low concentration (10 µg/mL), NCQDs exposure markedly enhanced sperm motility, survival, and capacitation, as determined by computer-assisted sperm analysis (CASA). These functional improvements significantly increased fertilization rates and enhanced embryonic development up to the morula stage. In contrast, blastocyst formation was delayed, accompanied by reduced pluripotency (Oct4) and trophectoderm differentiation (Cdx2, Tead2). Elevated mRNA expression of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress markers (Atf6, Chop) in morula-stage embryos suggested that prolonged NCQD exposure induces cellular stress that may interfere with lineage specification. Collectively, these findings reveal a stage-specific, biphasic effect of NCQDs, promoting sperm activation and early cleavage while inhibiting later differentiation, highlighting the need for optimized dosing and exposure timing to safely harness their reproductive benefits.","PeriodicalId":72791,"journal":{"name":"Development & reproduction","volume":"29 4","pages":"137-149"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12821385/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146031832","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigated the effects of adding H. lacustris, which is rich in astaxanthin, to feed on improving body color and health status in Macrobrachium rosenbergii post-larvae. The experimental results showed that body length exhibited similar growth trends across all groups, while body weight was significantly higher in the control (CON) group compared with the low concentration (LC) and high concentrations (HC) groups. Feed supplemented with H. lacustris exhibited a darkening effect on body color depending on concentration, and this effect persisted even after heating. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) expression levels in the hepatopancreas significantly increased at day 60 in the HC group. Crustin expression also significantly increased in the hepatopancreas on day 60, but no significant differences were observed between groups in the tail muscle.

Although key elements of the Hippo signaling pathway are well-defined, the factors that control the transcriptional outcome of Hippo have yet to be fully elucidated. Until now, mainly in mammals, the Hippo signaling pathway has been focused on serine 127 (S127) of yes-associated protein (YAP), a key target gene. Recently, it has been shown that nemo-like kinase (NLK) can crosstalk with the Hippo pathway by phosphorylating an unknown new site of YAP. NLK transfers YAP serine 128 (S128) to the nucleus through dissociation of the 14-3-3 binding with YAP, promoting transcriptional activity. However, this is worth investigating as it has not been studied in the mammalian reproductive system and the precise mechanisms of signaling pathway crosstalk in endometrial cells that are dynamically altered by steroid hormones remain unclear. In this study, we found that expression of NLK and YAP S128 changes the expression site or extent of expression in the endometrium during the estrous cycle. Furthermore, we demonstrated that regulation of its expression proceeds through estrogen and its receptors. We have shown that these responses are triggered and regulated in uterine epithelial cells, suggesting that their expression plays a role in uterine dynamics during the estrous cycle, as does the hippocampal signaling pathway.","PeriodicalId":72791,"journal":{"name":"Development & reproduction","volume":"29 4","pages":"105-119"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12821382/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146031784","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We hypothesized that the dimensional structure of the culture environment significantly influences the differentiation efficiency. To evaluate PGCLC induction efficiency, we used Blimp1-mVenus×Stella-ECFP (BVSC) transgenic reporter embryonic stem cells.

This essential function initiates pregnenolone synthesis by P450 family 11 subfamily A member 1 (CYP11A1, cytochrome P450scc) within IMM. Beyond its biochemical role, StAR is a critical developmental protein, with spatiotemporally restricted expression during fetal adrenal and gonadal differentiation. Its activity is tightly regulated at multiple levels, including transcriptional control by transcription factors, GATA post-translational phosphorylation, mitochondrial targeting, and proteolytic degradation. Structurally, StAR functions through a dynamic molten globule-like conformation and a conserved StAR-related lipid transfer (START) domain that mediates cholesterol binding. StAR interacts with mitochondrial proteins such as nonselective voltage-gated ion channel VDAC (VDAC), translocator protein (TSPO), and ATPase family AAA domain-containing protein 3A (ATAD3A), forming part of the transduceosome complex that coordinates cholesterol transfer. Mutations in STAR, particularly within the START domain), cause lipoid congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), a disorder marked by impaired steroidogenesis and disrupted endocrine organ development. This review integrates current knowledge on the molecular and developmental roles of STAR, emphasizing how its precise regulation is essential for embryonic steroidogenesis.
