Fibroblast growth factor receptor signaling in oligodendrocytes regulates myelin sheath thickness.
Formation of the CNS white matter is developmentally tightly regulated, but the molecules and mechanisms of myelination control in the postnatal CNS are poorly understood. Here, we show that myelin growth is controlled by fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling, originally identified as a proliferative signal for oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) in vitro. We created two lines of mice lac...
متن کامل9-cis-Retinoic Acid and 1,25-dihydroxy Vitamin D3 Improve the Differentiation of Neural Stem Cells into Oligodendrocytes through the Inhibition of the Notch and Wnt Signaling Pathways
Background: Differentiating oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) into oligodendrocytes could be improved by inhibiting signaling pathways such as Wnt and Notch. 9-cis-retinoic acid (9-cis-RA) and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25[OH]2D3) can ameliorate oligodendrogenesis. We investigated whether they could increase oligodendrogenesis by inhibiting the Wnt and Notch signaling pathways.Methods: Co...
متن کاملAttenuated Wnt signaling perturbs pancreatic growth but not pancreatic function.
Mesenchymal-epithelial interactions are pivotal for proper pancreatic growth and development. We have earlier shown that the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) receptor 2 is expressed in pancreatic progenitor cells and that FGF10, the high-affinity ligand of the FGF receptor 2 isoform FGF receptor 2b, promotes expansion of pancreatic progenitors. The Wnt family of ligands, which signal to the Frizz...
متن کاملFibroblast growth factor 1 (FGFR1) modulation regulates repair capacity of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells following chronic demyelination.
The adult mammalian brain contains multiple populations of endogenous progenitor cell types. However, following CNS trauma or disease, the regenerative capacity of progenitor populations is typically insufficient and may actually be limited by non-permissive or inhibitory signals in the damaged parenchyma. Remyelination is the most effective and simplest regenerative process in the adult CNS ye...
متن کاملInactivation of mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway reduces caspase-14 expression in impaired keratinocytes
Objective(s):Several investigations have revealed that caspase-14 is responsible for the epidermal differentiation and cornification, as well as the regulation of moisturizing effect. However, the precise regulation mechanism is still not clear. This study was aimed to investigate the expression of caspase-14 in filaggrin-deficient normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs) and to explore the...
