Nitric oxide synthase regulates morphogenesis of zebrafish spinal cord motoneurons.
Nitric oxide (NO) is a signaling molecule that is synthesized in a range of tissues by the NO synthases (NOSs). In the immature nervous system, the neuronal isoform of NOS (NOS1) is often expressed during periods of axon outgrowth and elaboration. However, there is little direct molecular evidence to suggest that NOS1 influences these processes. Here we address the functional role of NOS1 durin...
متن کاملEarly Endocardial Morphogenesis Requires Scl/Tal1
The primitive heart tube is composed of an outer myocardial and an inner endocardial layer that will give rise to the cardiac valves and septa. Specification and differentiation of these two cell layers are among the earliest events in heart development, but the embryonic origins and genetic regulation of early endocardial development remain largely undefined. We have analyzed early endocardial...
متن کاملDermoskeleton morphogenesis in zebrafish fins
Zebrafish fins have a proximal skeleton of endochondral bones and a distal skeleton of dermal bones. Recent experimental and genetic studies are discovering mechanisms to control fin skeleton morphogenesis. Whereas the endochondral skeleton has been extensively studied, the formation of the dermal skeleton requires further revision. The shape of the dermal skeleton of the fin is generated in it...
متن کاملCa2+ dynamics in zebrafish morphogenesis
Intracellular calcium ion (Ca2+) signaling is heavily involved in development, as illustrated by the use of a number of Ca2+ indicators. However, continuous Ca2+ patterns during morphogenesis have not yet been studied using fluorescence resonance energy transfer to track the Ca2+ sensor. In the present study, we monitored Ca2+ levels during zebrafish morphogenesis and differentiation with yello...
متن کاملFoxp1 regulates cardiac outflow tract, endocardial cushion morphogenesis and myocyte proliferation and maturation.
We have recently described a new subfamily of Fox genes, Foxp1/2/4, which are transcriptional repressors and are thought to regulate important aspects of development in several tissues, including the lung, brain, thymus and heart. Here, we show that Foxp1 is expressed in the myocardium as well as the endocardium of the developing heart. To further explore the role of Foxp1 in cardiac developmen...
