Conserved role of the urotensin II receptor 4 signalling pathway to control body straightness in a tetrapod

Conserved role of the urotensin II receptor 4 signalling pathway to control body straightness in a tetrapod

Urp1 and Urp2 are two neuropeptides of the urotensin II family identified in teleost fish and mainly expressed in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-contacting neurons. It has been recently proposed that Urp1 and Urp2 are required for correct axis formation and maintenance. Their action is thought to be medi...
