Bimodal functions of Notch-mediated signaling are involved in neural crest formation during avian ectoderm development.
Neural crest is induced at the junction of epidermal ectoderm and neural plate by the mutual interaction of these tissues. In previous studies, BMP4 has been shown to pattern the ectodermal tissues, and BMP4 can induce neural crest cells from the neural plate. In this study, we show that epidermally expressed Delta1, which encodes a Notch ligand, is required for the activation and/or maintenanc...
متن کاملDysgenesis of cephalic neural crest derivatives in Pax7-/- mutant mice.
Pax7 is a member of the paired box containing gene family. Its expression pattern suggests a function in cephalic neural crest derivatives, skeletal muscle and central nervous system development. To understand the role of Pax7 during mouse embryogenesis, we used the homologous recombination technique in embryonic stem cells and generated Pax7-/- mice. Homozygous animals are born but die shortly...
متن کاملExpression of Hox 2.1 protein in restricted populations of neural crest cells and pharyngeal ectoderm.
A polyclonal antibody, alpha Hox 2.1a, was used to localize Hox 2.1 protein in presumptive neural crest cells and nodose ganglion of 8.5-10.0 day p.c. mouse embryos. The following results were obtained: (1) The nodose placode, in its epithelial state, first expresses Hox 2.1 protein at 9.0 d.p.c. By 9.5 d.p.c. presumptive migrating neuroblasts between the nodose placode and ganglion primordium ...
متن کاملLectin binding to neural crest cells. Changes of the cell surface during differentiation in vitro
To examine possible changes in cell surface carbohydrates, fluorescent lectins were applied at various times during differentiation of neural crest cells in vitro. The pattern and intensity of binding of several lectins changed as the crest cells developed into melanocytes and adrenergic cells. Considerable amounts of concanavalin A (Con A) and wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) bound to all unpigment...
متن کاملHigh frequency of cephalic neural crest cells shows coexistence of neurogenic, melanogenic, and osteogenic differentiation capacities.
The neural crest (NC) is a vertebrate innovation that distinguishes vertebrates from other chordates and was critical for the development and evolution of a "New Head and Brain." In early vertebrates, the NC was the source of dermal armor of fossil jawless fish. In extant vertebrates, including mammals, the NC forms the peripheral nervous system, melanocytes, and the cartilage and bone of the f...
