Dynamic regulation of Notch signaling in neural progenitor cells.
In the developing nervous system, differentiating neurons express Delta and activate Notch signaling in their neighboring cells. As a result of Notch activation, neuronal differentiation is inhibited in neighboring cells and they remain neural progenitor cells. Thus, differentiation of neurons and maintenance of neural progenitor cells are well balanced owing to Notch signaling. Recent studies ...
متن کاملDynamic Expression of Notch Signaling Genes in Neural Stem/Progenitor Cells
In neural stem/progenitor cells, expression of the Notch effector Hes1, a transcriptional repressor, oscillates with a period of 2-3 h by negative feedback, and Hes1 oscillations induce the oscillatory expression of the proneural gene Neurogenin2 (Ngn2) and the Notch ligand gene Delta-like1 (Dll1). Dll1 oscillation leads to the mutual activation of Notch signaling between neighboring cells, the...
متن کاملFunctional glutamate signaling in neural progenitor cells.
In this review, we have summarized our recent studies on the functionality of ionotropic (iGluR) and metabotropic (mGluR) glutamate receptors expressed by undifferentiated neural progenitor cells (NPC) isolated from embryonic rat and mouse brains. NPC are primitive cells with the self-renewal capacity as well as the multipotentiality to generate different neural lineages including neurons, astr...
متن کاملNotch signaling maintains Leydig progenitor cells in the mouse testis.
During testis development, fetal Leydig cells increase their population from a pool of progenitor cells rather than from proliferation of a differentiated cell population. However, the mechanism that regulates Leydig stem cell self-renewal and differentiation is unknown. Here, we show that blocking Notch signaling, by inhibiting gamma-secretase activity or deleting the downstream target gene Ha...
متن کاملMesenchymal Stem Cells: Signaling Pathways in Transdifferentiation Into Retinal Progenitor Cells
Several signaling pathways and transcription factors control the cell fate in its in vitro development and differentiation. The orchestrated use of these factors results in cell specification. In coculture methods, many of these factors secrete from host cells but control the process. Today, transcription factors required for retinal progenitor cells are well known, but the generation of these ...
