Identification of a cytoskeletal protein localized in the myoplasm of ascidian eggs: localization is modified during anural development.

The myoplasm of ascidian eggs is a localized cytoskeletal domain that is segregated to presumptive larval tail muscle cells during embryonic development. We have identified a cytoskeletal protein recognized by a vertebrate neurofilament monoclonal antibody (NN18) which is concentrated in the myoplasm in eggs and embryos of a variety of ascidian species. The NN18 antigen is localized in the peri...

Programmed cell death in the ascidian embryo: modulation by FoxA5 and Manx and roles in the evolution of larval development

Programmed cell death (PCD) has been discounted in the ascidian embryo because the descendants of every embryonic cell appear to be present in the tadpole larva. Here we show that apoptotic PCD is initiated in the epidermis and central nervous system (CNS) but not in the endoderm, mesenchyme, muscle, and notochord cells during embryogenesis in molgulid ascidians. However, the affected cells do ...

The transcription factor Sox5 modulates Sox10 function during melanocyte development

The transcription factor Sox5 has previously been shown in chicken to be expressed in early neural crest cells and neural crest-derived peripheral glia. Here, we show in mouse that Sox5 expression also continues after neural crest specification in the melanocyte lineage. Despite its continued expression, Sox5 has little impact on melanocyte development on its own as generation of melanoblasts a...

Biological and mathematical modeling of melanocyte development.

We aim to evaluate environmental and genetic effects on the expansion/proliferation of committed single cells during embryonic development, using melanoblasts as a paradigm to model this phenomenon. Melanoblasts are a specific type of cell that display extensive cellular proliferation during development. However, the events controlling melanoblast expansion are still poorly understood due to in...

The biology of melanocyte and melanocyte stem cell.

The melanocyte stem cells of the hair follicle provide an attractive system for the study of the stem cells. Successful regeneration of a functional organ relies on the organized and timely orchestration of molecular events among distinct stem/progenitor cell populations. The stem cells are regulated by communication with their specialized microenvironment known as the niche. Despite remarkable...
