Cell lineage: Compartments and Capricious
نویسنده
چکیده
Until recently, little was known about the mechanisms that prevent cell migration across compartment boundaries in Drosophila. A new report suggests that the lineage restriction between the dorsal and ventral compartments of the developing wing relies in part on the transmembrane proteins, Capricious and Tartan.

The LRR Proteins Capricious and Tartan Mediate Cell Interactions during DV Boundary Formation in the Drosophila Wing
Mechanisms to segregate cell populations play important roles in tissue patterning during animal development. Rhombomeres and compartments in the ectoderm and imaginal discs of Drosophila are examples in which initially homogenous populations of cells come to be separated by boundaries of lineage restriction. Boundary formation depends in part on signaling between the distinctly specified cell ...
متن کاملP-130: Piwil2 Reprograms Human Fibroblasts to Germ Cell Lineage
Background The piwi family genes are highly conserved during evolution and play a crucial role in stem cell self-renewal, gametogenesis, and RNA interference in diverse organisms ranging from Arabidopsis to humans. Piwil2, also known as Hili, is one of the four human homologues of piwi. Piwil2 was found in germ cells of adult testis, suggesting that this gene functions in spermatogonial stem ce...
متن کاملActors of necroptosis scenario in cell\'s scene
Necroptosis, as a novel concept, has been recently introduced in scientific literature. Much of our knowledge about necroptosis comes from ligation of tumor necrosis factor-α to its receptor, TNF receptor 1. Receptor-interacting protein kinase 1, receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 and its substrate, the pseudokinase mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein, have been comprehensively st...
متن کاملCell tracing reveals a dorsoventral lineage restriction plane in the mouse limb bud mesenchyme.
Regionalization of embryonic fields into independent units of growth and patterning is a widespread strategy during metazoan development. Compartments represent a particular instance of this regionalization, in which unit coherence is maintained by cell lineage restriction between adjacent regions. Lineage compartments have been described during insect and vertebrate development. Two common cha...
متن کاملLineage Switch in Childhood Leukemia: A Case Report and Review of Literature
Acute leukemia which is the most common cancer in children is a heterogeneous group of clonal malignancies. The conversion of the leukemic cell lineage during the course of the disease or later is termed lineage switch. It has been rarely reported in the literature. In leukemia lineage switch, conversions from lymphoblastic leukemia to myeloid leukemia or vice versa are reported. Herein, we rep...
