Zebrafish fgf24 functions with fgf8 to promote posterior mesodermal development.
Fibroblast growth factor (Fgf) signaling plays an important role during development of posterior mesoderm in vertebrate embryos. Blocking Fgf signaling by expressing a dominant-negative Fgf receptor inhibits posterior mesoderm development. In mice, Fgf8 appears to be the principal ligand required for mesodermal development, as mouse Fgf8 mutants do not form mesoderm. In zebrafish, Fgf8 is encod...
متن کاملTranscriptional and Translational Control of Zebrafish Mesodermal Development
Establishment of the mesodermal germ layer is a process dependent on the integration of multiple transcriptional and signaling inputs. Here I investigate the role of the transcription factor FoxD3 in zebrafish mesodermal development. FoxD3 gain-of-function results in dorsal mesoderm expansion and body axis dorsalization. FoxD3 knockdown results in axial defects similar to Nodal loss-of-function...
متن کاملThe development of the posterior body in zebrafish.
In order to understand the developmental mechanisms of posterior body formation in the zebrafish, a fate map of the zebrafish tailbud was generated along with a detailed analysis of tailbud cell movements. The fate map of the zebrafish tailbud shows that it contains tissue-restricted domains and is not a homogeneous blastema. Furthermore, time-lapse analysis shows that some cell movements and b...
متن کاملInsm1a Is Required for Zebrafish Posterior Lateral Line Development
Insulinoma-associated 1 (Insm1), a zinc-finger transcription factor, is widely expressed in the developing nervous system and plays important roles in cell cycle progression and cell fate specification. However, the functions of Insm1 in the embryonic development of the sensory system and its underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely unexplored. Here, through whole-mount in situ hybridizat...
متن کاملWell-defined growth factors promote cardiac development in axolotl mesodermal explants.
The effect of growth factors on the formation of cardiac mesoderm in the urodele, Ambystoma mexicanum (axolotl), has been examined using an in vitro explant system. It has previously been shown that cardiac mesoderm is induced by pharyngeal endoderm during neurula stages in urodeles. In this study, explants of prospective cardiac mesoderm from early neurula stage embryos rarely formed beating c...
