High impact information on PGC

  • Spermatogonia displayed beta-galactose residues and a high immunoreactivity with the NC1 Mab, indicating modulations in PGC glycosylations related to the acquisition of sexual phenotypes [1].
  • Pearson chi-square tests of gene ontology terms in the 2nd level between PGC and embryonic gonad set showed no significance [2].
  • This study was conducted to investigate a large-scale expressed sequence tag (EST) analysis in chicken PGCs and compare the expression of the PGC ESTs with that of embryonic gonad [2].
  • Inasmuch as this in vitro system permits direct observations of PGCs migrating on their natural, rather than artificial, substratum undoubtedly it will prove to be an effective means of studying the mode of PGC migration in early chick embryos [3].
 

Anatomical context of PGC

  • On the other hand, 17 genes in embryonic gonads were up-regulated higher than those in the PGC set [2].
