Zebrafish Endzone Regulates Neural Crest-Derived Chromatophore Differentiation and Morphology
The development of neural crest-derived pigment cells has been studied extensively as a model for cellular differentiation, disease and environmental adaptation. Neural crest-derived chromatophores in the zebrafish (Danio rerio) consist of three types: melanophores, xanthophores and iridiphores. We have identified the zebrafish mutant endzone (enz), that was isolated in a screen for mutants wit...
متن کاملInterplay between Foxd3 and Mitf regulates cell fate plasticity in the zebrafish neural crest.
Pigment cells of the zebrafish, Danio rerio, offer an exceptionally tractable system for studying the genetic and cellular bases of cell fate decisions. In the zebrafish, neural crest cells generate three types of pigment cells during embryogenesis: yellow xanthophores, iridescent iridophores and black melanophores. In this study, we present evidence for a model whereby melanophores and iridoph...
متن کامل13-P089 Sox3 regulates formation of the Neiuwkoop centre and organizer in zebrafish
Breakdowns of the blood–brain barrier (BBB) are frequently associated with various central nervous system (CNS) diseases. Cerebrovascular endothelial cells (ECs) play important roles in maintaining a stable microenvironment for the CNS by interacting with pericytes. However, the genetic mechanisms controlling the functions of cerebral ECs are still largely unknown. Here, we report that disrupti...
متن کاملNotch signaling regulates neural precursor allocation and binary neuronal fate decisions in zebrafish.
Notch signaling plays a well-described role in regulating the formation of neurons from proliferative neural precursors in vertebrates but whether, as in flies, it also specifies sibling cells for different neuronal fates is not known. Ventral spinal cord precursors called pMN cells produce mostly motoneurons and oligodendrocytes, but recent lineage-marking experiments reveal that they also mak...
متن کاملThe ADAMTS5 Metzincin Regulates Zebrafish Somite Differentiation
The ADAMTS5 metzincin, a secreted zinc-dependent metalloproteinase, modulates the extracellular matrix (ECM) during limb morphogenesis and other developmental processes. Here, the role of ADAMTS5 was investigated by knockdown of zebrafish adamts5 during embryogenesis. This revealed impaired Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) signaling during somite patterning and early myogenesis. Notably, synergistic regula...
