ANR5, an FGF Target Gene Product, Regulates Gastrulation in Xenopus
Gastrulation is a morphogenetic process in which tightly coordinated cell and tissue movements establish the three germ layers (ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm) to define the anterior-to-posterior embryonic organization [1]. To elicit this movement, cells modulate membrane protrusions and undergo dynamic cell interactions. Here we report that ankyrin repeats domain protein 5 (xANR5), a novel F...
متن کاملFlamingo regulates epiboly and convergence/extension movements through cell cohesive and signalling functions during zebrafish gastrulation.
During vertebrate gastrulation, the body axis is established by coordinated and directional movements of cells that include epiboly, involution, and convergence and extension (C&E). Recent work implicates a non-canonical Wnt/planar cell polarity (PCP) pathway in the regulation of C&E. The Drosophila atypical cadherin Flamingo (Fmi) and its vertebrate homologue Celsr, a 7-pass transmembrane prot...
متن کاملXenopus Cyr61 regulates gastrulation movements and modulates Wnt signalling.
Cyr61 is a secreted, heparin-binding, extracellular matrix-associated protein whose activities include the promotion of adhesion and chemotaxis, and the stimulation of fibroblast and endothelial cell growth. Many, if not all, of these activities of Cyr61 are mediated through interactions with integrins. We explore the role of Cyr61 in the early development of Xenopus laevis. Gain- and loss-of-f...
متن کاملDiversin regulates heart formation and gastrulation movements in development.
Canonical and noncanonical Wnt signaling regulate crucial events in the development of vertebrates and invertebrates. In this work we show that vertebrate Diversin, a potential orthologue of Drosophila Diego, controls fusion of heart precursors and gastrulation movements in zebrafish embryogenesis. These events are regulated by noncanonical Wnt signaling, which is independent of beta-catenin. W...
متن کاملVertebrate gastrulation: Calcium waves orchestrate cell movements
A recent study reveals that the propagation of intercellular calcium signals is closely associated with the generation of convergent extension movements during Xenopus gastrulation. Such signals provide a mechanism whereby large populations of cells can communicate to generate orchestrated cell movements.
