Av Marker

An AV marker is a molecular or anatomical feature used to identify the atrioventricular region, where the developing heart separates its upper and lower chambers. These markers reflect the localized expression of genes or proteins that guide atrioventricular canal formation, valve development, and electrical conduction between the atria and ventricles. Researchers use AV markers to track cardiac cell lineages, distinguish specialized heart tissues, and evaluate developmental changes in model organisms and cultured cells. Their analysis supports studies of congenital heart defects, cardiac regeneration, and disease mechanisms by revealing how altered regional identity or signaling disrupts normal heart structure and function.

We describe a microsurgical approach for the generation of an arteriovenous (AV) loop as a model for analyzing vascularization in vivo in an isolated and well-characterized environment. This model is not only useful for the investigation of angiogenesis, but is also optimally suited for engineering axially vascularized and transplantable tissues.

The combination of multiple imaging modalities is often necessary to gain a comprehensive understanding of pathophysiology. This approach utilizes phantoms to generate a differential transformation between the coordinate systems of two modalities, which is then applied for co-registration. This method eliminates the need for fiducials in production scans.

The ability to produce transgenes for Caenorhabditis elegans using genomic DNA carried by fosmids is particularly attractive as all of the native regulatory elements are retained. Described is a simple and robust procedure for the production of transgenes via recombineering with the galK selectable marker.

Development of a Negative Selectable Marker for Entamoeba histolytica

We report development of a negative selection system in E. histolytica based upon transgenic expression of a chimeric protein (FCU1) and selection with the prodrug 5-fluorocytosine. The FCU1 protein is a fusion of yeast cytosine deaminase and uracil phosphoribosyltransferase. Expression of FCU1 resulted in increased E. histolytica sensitivity towards 5-fluorocytosine.
