p16 in Melanocyte Senescence and Differentiation
Background: The Ink4a-Arf tumor suppressor locus encodes two growth inhibitors, p16 and Arf, both of which are also implicated as effectors in cellular senescence. Because human germline defects in the INK4A-ARF locus are associated with familial melanoma, melanocytes may have unusual INK4A-ARF functions or controls of cell senescence. Because senescence is believed to be an anticancer mechanis...
متن کاملCOMMENTARY Colour genes, oncogenes and melanocyte differentiation
Pigmentation has long been a favourite and easily used marker in the genetics of diverse organisms. Mammalian integumental pigments are melanins, synthesized by melanocytes in the epidermis and hair bulbs. Our understanding of mammalian pigmentation genes has been advanced significantly in the last few years (Hearing and Jim6nez, 1989), partly by the advent of methods for the culture and immort...
متن کاملMolecular characterization and expression analysis of leucine-rich alpha2-glycoprotein, a novel marker of granulocytic differentiation.
Using data obtained from cDNA representational difference analysis to identify genes induced during neutrophilic differentiation of the 32D clone 3G (32Dcl3G) cells, we isolated cDNA clones for murine and human leucine-rich alpha2-glycoprotein (hLRG), a protein with unknown function purified 25 years ago. Expression of LRG during differentiation of 32Dcl3G cells preceded the expression of lacto...
متن کاملLeucine-Rich Repeat Kinase 2 Modulates Retinoic Acid-Induced Neuronal Differentiation of Murine Embryonic Stem Cells
BACKGROUND Dominant mutations in the leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) gene are the most prevalent cause of Parkinson's disease, however, little is known about the biological function of LRRK2 protein. LRRK2 is expressed in neural precursor cells suggesting a role in neurodevelopment. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS In the present study, differential gene expression profiling revealed a fas...
متن کاملNovel Small Leucine-Rich Protein Chondroadherin-like (CHADL) is Expressed in Cartilage and Modulates Chondrocyte Differentiation
The constitution and biophysical properties of extracellular matrices can dramatically influence cellular phenotype during development, homeostasis, or pathogenesis. These effects can be signaled through a differentially regulated assembly of collagen fibrils, orchestrated by a family of collagenassociated Small Leucine-Rich Proteins, SLRPs. In this report, we describe the tissue-specific expre...
