Neither too much nor too little: reactive oxygen species levels regulate Drosophila hematopoiesis.

چکیده
Owing to their fast diffusion, reactive oxygen species (ROS) are important tissue signalling components. High levels of ROS are generally considered as deleterious to cells. In vivo experiments in the Drosophila hematopoietic organ now challenge this view by showing that high ROS levels are intrinsically required to prime myeloid-like progenitors to differentiate.

Reactive oxygen species-dependent Toll/NF-κB activation in the Drosophila hematopoietic niche confers resistance to wasp parasitism
Hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells in the adult mammalian bone marrow ensure blood cell renewal. Their cellular microenvironment, called 'niche', regulates hematopoiesis both under homeostatic and immune stress conditions. In the Drosophila hematopoietic organ, the lymph gland, the posterior signaling center (PSC) acts as a niche to regulate the hematopoietic response to immune stress such as ...
متن کاملOptimal oxygen saturation in premature infants
There is a delicate balance between too little and too much supplemental oxygen exposure in premature infants. Since underuse and overuse of supplemental oxygen can harm premature infants, oxygen saturation levels must be monitored and kept at less than 95% to prevent reactive oxygen species-related diseases, such as retinopathy of prematurity and bronchopulmonary dysplasia. At the same time, d...
متن کاملInteraction of polyamine and proline on the activity of enzymatic and non-enzymatic compounds in the peel of three Citrus species under low temperature stress
Plants activate antioxidant defense mechanisms under stress, which help maintaining the structural integrity of cell components and possibly reduces oxidative damage. Low temperature stress leads to the production of reactive oxygen species and oxidative damage to plants. In this study, the effect of putrescine and proline on reducing the production of reactive oxygen species and increasing th...
متن کاملAn unexpected link between notch signaling and ROS in restricting the differentiation of hematopoietic progenitors in Drosophila.
A fundamental question in hematopoietic development is how multipotent progenitors achieve precise identities, while the progenitors themselves maintain quiescence. In Drosophila melanogaster larvae, multipotent hematopoietic progenitors support the production of three lineages, exhibit quiescence in response to cues from a niche, and from their differentiated progeny. Infection by parasitic wa...
متن کاملMultifaceted roles of PTEN and TSC orchestrate growth and differentiation of Drosophila blood progenitors.
The innate plasticity of hematopoietic progenitors is tightly regulated to supply blood cells during normal hematopoiesis and in response to stress or infection. We demonstrate that in the Drosophila lymph gland (LG) the tumor suppressors TSC and PTEN control blood progenitor proliferation through a common TOR- and 4EBP-dependent pathway. Tsc2 or Pten deficiency in progenitors increases TOR sig...
