Mechanisms of organogenesis of primary lymphoid follicles.
Primary lymphoid follicles (PLFs) in secondary lymphoid tissue (SLT) of mammals are the backbone for the formation of follicular dendritic cell (FDC) networks. These are important for germinal center reactions during which affinity maturation creates optimized antibodies in adaptive immune responses. In the context of organogenesis, molecular requirements for the formation of follicles have bee...
متن کاملMechanisms of thymus organogenesis and morphogenesis.
The thymus is the primary organ responsible for generating functional T cells in vertebrates. Although T cell differentiation within the thymus has been an area of intense investigation, the study of thymus organogenesis has made slower progress. The past decade, however, has seen a renewed interest in thymus organogenesis, with the aim of understanding how the thymus develops to form a microen...

متن کاملp63 regulates multiple signalling pathways required for ectodermal organogenesis and differentiation.
Heterozygous germline mutations in p63, a transcription factor of the p53 family, result in abnormal morphogenesis of the skin and its associated structures, including hair follicles and teeth. In mice lacking p63, all ectodermal organs fail to develop, and stratification of the epidermis is absent. We show that the ectodermal placodes that mark early tooth and hair follicle morphogenesis do no...
متن کاملEctodysplasin has a dual role in ectodermal organogenesis: inhibition of Bmp activity and induction of Shh expression.
Ectodermal organogenesis is regulated by inductive and reciprocal signalling cascades that involve multiple signal molecules in several conserved families. Ectodysplasin-A (Eda), a tumour necrosis factor-like signalling molecule, and its receptor Edar are required for the development of a number of ectodermal organs in vertebrates. In mice, lack of Eda leads to failure in primary hair placode f...
