Lymnaea epidermal growth factor promotes axonal regeneration in CNS organ culture.
Members of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family are frequently implicated in the injury response of the mammalian nervous system. Although this implication is supported by extensive molecular evidence, it is not underpinned by conclusive functional data. Recently, we found that expression of an EGF homolog from the pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis (L-EGF) is upregulated after axotomy in the adu...
متن کاملTransforming growth factor beta 2 promotes the formation of the mouse cochleovestibular ganglion in organ culture.
The inner ear structures are derived from the otic vesicle (OV) which is formed by thickening and invagination of the otic placode of the surface ectoderm. A number of neuroblasts, which arise from epithelial cells of the otic vesicle, delaminate and differentiate into neurons of the cochleovestibular ganglion (CVG). We have found that transforming growth factor-BEta2 (Tgfbeta2 ) was expressed ...
متن کاملNew roles for old proteins in adult CNS axonal regeneration.
The past year has yielded many insights and a few surprises in the field of axonal regeneration. The identification of oligodendrocyte-myelin glycoprotein as an inhibitor of axonal growth, and the discovery that the three major myelin-associated inhibitors of CNS regeneration share the same functional receptor, has launched a new wave of studies that aim to identify the signaling components of ...
متن کاملO-20: The Combination of Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor and Follicular Stimulating Hormone Promotes Human Follicle Development In Vitro Culture
Background Fertility preservation is an important part of scientific study in the field of reproductive medicine. Ovarian cryopreservation and in vitro follicles culture provide option for fertility conservation in older women or cancer patients. Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) or FGF-2, is member of fibroblast growth factors family which play critical roles in cell migration proliferatio...
متن کاملRho kinase inhibition enhances axonal regeneration in the injured CNS.
Myelin-associated inhibitors limit axonal regeneration in the injured brain and spinal cord. A common target of many neurite outgrowth inhibitors is the Rho family of small GTPases. Activation of Rho and a downstream effector of Rho, p160ROCK, inhibits neurite outgrowth. Here, we demonstrate that Rho is directly activated by the myelin-associated inhibitor Nogo-66. Using a binding assay to meas...
