Endoderm patterning by the notochord: development of the hypochord in Xenopus.
The patterning and differentiation of the vertebrate endoderm requires signaling from adjacent tissues. In this report, we demonstrate that signals from the notochord are critical for the development of the hypochord, which is a transient, endodermally derived structure that lies immediately ventral to the notochord in the amphibian and fish embryo. It appears likely that the hypochord is requi...
متن کاملXenopus Reduced Folate Carrier Regulates Neural Crest Development Epigenetically
Folic acid deficiency during pregnancy causes birth neurocristopathic malformations resulting from aberrant development of neural crest cells. The Reduced folate carrier (RFC) is a membrane-bound receptor for facilitating transfer of reduced folate into the cells. RFC knockout mice are embryonic lethal and develop multiple malformations, including neurocristopathies. Here we show that XRFC is s...
متن کاملcPKC regulates interphase nuclear size during Xenopus development
Dramatic changes in cell and nuclear size occur during development and differentiation, and aberrant nuclear size is associated with many disease states. However, the mechanisms that regulate nuclear size are largely unknown. A robust system for investigating nuclear size is early Xenopus laevis development, during which reductions in nuclear size occur without changes in DNA content. To identi...
متن کاملEph Regulates Dorsoventral Asymmetry of the Notochord Plate and Convergent Extension-Mediated Notochord Formation
BACKGROUND The notochord is a signaling center required for the patterning of the vertebrate embryonic midline, however, the molecular and cellular mechanisms involved in the formation of this essential embryonic tissue remain unclear. The urochordate Ciona intestinalis develops a simple notochord from 40 specific postmitotic mesodermal cells. The precursors intercalate mediolaterally and estab...
