    Mork, Lindsey; Capel, Blanche (BIOMED CENTRAL LTD, 2010)
    Oestrogen exerts a robust yet imperfectly understood effect on sexual development in vertebrate embryos. New work by Pask and colleagues in BMC Biology indicates that it may interfere with male development by preventing ...
  • Regulation of male germ cell cycle arrest and differentiation by DND1 is modulated by genetic background
    Cook, Matthew; Munger, Steven C.; Capel, Blanche (COMPANY OF BIOLOGISTS LTD, 2011)
    Human germ cell tumors show a strong sensitivity to genetic background similar to Dnd1(Ter/Ter) mutant mice, where testicular teratomas arise only on the 129/SvJ genetic background. The introduction of the Bax mutation ...

    Maatouk, Danielle; Capel, Blanche (BIOMED CENTRAL LTD, 2010)
    Several sexually dimorphic phenotypes correlate with sex-chromosome dosage rather than with phenotypic sex. New research suggests that sex chromosome dimorphism helps to regulate gene silencing.
