چکیده

anism would thus be a new way to form a tube. As the generation of the lumen and of the tube itself requires the apparition of an apical domain, we decided to investigate how part of the lateral domain becomes apical. Our first results, using transgenes driven by brachyury regulating sequences, show that several proteins classically involved in antero-posterior and planar polarities could be involved in this process.

Neural crest specification and migration independently require NSD3-related lysine methyltransferase activity

Neural crest precursors express genes that cause them to become migratory, multipotent cells, distinguishing them from adjacent stationary neural progenitors in the neurepithelium. Histone methylation spatiotemporally regulates neural crest gene expression; however, the protein methyltransferases active in neural crest precursors are unknown. Moreover, the regulation of methylation during the d...

Enteric Nervous System Progenitors Are Coordinately Controlled by the G Protein-Coupled Receptor EDNRB and the Receptor Tyrosine Kinase RET

The enteric nervous system (ENS) in vertebrates is derived mainly from vagal neural crest cells that enter the foregut and colonize the entire wall of the gastrointestinal tract. Failure to completely colonize the gut results in the absence of enteric ganglia (Hirschsprung's disease). Two signaling systems mediated by RET and EDNRB have been identified as critical players in enteric neurogenesi...

PFKFB4 control of AKT signaling is essential for premigratory and migratory neural crest formation.

Neural crest (NC) specification comprises an early phase, initiating immature NC progenitors formation at neural plate stage, and a later phase at neural fold stage, resulting in a functional premigratory NC that is able to delaminate and migrate. We found that the NC gene regulatory network triggers upregulation of pfkfb4 (6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase 4) during this lat...

Temporally Distinct Requirements for Endothelin Receptor B in the Generation and Migration of Gut Neural Crest Stem Cells

Loss of Endothelin-3/Endothelin receptor B (EDNRB) signaling leads to aganglionosis of the distal gut (Hirschsprung's disease), but it is unclear whether it is required primarily for neural crest progenitor maintenance or migration. Ednrb-deficient gut neural crest stem cells (NCSCs) were reduced to 40% of wild-type levels by embryonic day 12.5 (E12.5), but no further depletion of NCSCs was sub...

A role for rhoB in the delamination of neural crest cells from the dorsal neural tube.

The differentiation of neural crest cells from progenitors located in the dorsal neural tube appears to involve three sequential steps: the specification of premigratory neural crest cell fate, the delamination of these cells from the neural epithelium and the migration of neural crest cells in the periphery. BMP signaling has been implicated in the specification of neural crest cell fate but t...
