Using gene trap mutagenesis, we have identified a mutation in mice that causes exencephaly, acrania, facial clefting, and spina bifida, all of which can be attributed to failed neural tube closure. This mutation is designated shroom (shrm) because the neural folds "mushroom" outward and do not converge at the dorsal midline. shrm encodes a PDZ domain protein that is involved at several levels i...
The biological consequences of constitutive fibroblast growth factor-4 (fgf4) expression have been analysed during anterior CNS development of mouse chimeric embryos. Severe mutant embryos exhibit exencephaly, absence of eye development and anomalous differentiation of the neuroepithelium. These embryos also show ectopic limb buds resembling the early phases of limb development. Because our res...
Cyclophosphamide (CP) as an alkylating agent which is used for treatment of cancer and to prevent rejection of tissue transplantation. Therefore, in this study, the teratogenic effects of CP were compared. This study was performed on 11 pregnant mice that were divided into two groups. Control group received normal saline and test group received CP (20 mg/kg) intraperitoneal at 10 day of gestati...
The embryotoxic potential of ochratoxin A and citrinin was studied after administering, either subgerminally or intraamniotically, single mounting doses of the mycotoxins to chicken embryos on days 2, 3, and 4. The beginning of the embryotoxicity dose range was found to be between 0.01 to 0.05 microgram for ochratoxin A and 1 to 10 micrograms for citrinin. The maximum response to both mycotoxin...
MEG2, a protein tyrosine phosphatase with a unique NH2-terminal lipid-binding domain, binds to and is modulated by the polyphosphoinositides PI(4,5)P2 and PI(3,4,5)P3. Recent data implicate MEG2 in vesicle fusion events in leukocytes. Through the genesis of Meg2-deficient mice, we demonstrate that Meg2-/- embryos manifest hemorrhages, neural tube defects including exencephaly and meningomyeloce...
Gene deletion-induced autophagy deficiency leads to neural tube defects (NTDs), similar to those in diabetic pregnancy. Here we report the key autophagy regulators modulated by diabetes in the murine developing neuroepithelium. Diabetes predominantly leads to exencephaly, induces neuroepithelial cell apoptosis and suppresses autophagy in the forebrain and midbrain of NTD embryos. Deleting the P...
Teratogenic activity of methadone HC1 (Physeptone, Burroughs Wellcome and Co.) was tested on inbred JBT/Jd and outbred Q strain mouse embryos and on chick embryos. 22-24 mg/kg injected subcutaneously on the 9th day of pregnancy caused by the 13th day exencephaly in 56 out of 479 JBT/Jd embryos but after 32 mg/kg only in 1 out of 220 of the Q strain. Some affected JBT/Jd embryos showed also rach...
Ardıçlı B, Karaman A, Özyazıcı A, Zenciroğlu A, Okumuş N. Isolated thoracoschisis: Case report. Turk J Pediatr 2017; 59: 217-220. Thoracoschisis is a rare congenital anomaly that refers to a congenital fissure of the chest wall. It is frequently accompanied with other congenital defects of the limbs and the abdominal wall as part of the limb-body wall complex, which is exencephaly/encephalocele...
BACKGROUND/AIM The mechanism of valproic acid (VPA)-induced teratogenicity is poorly known. This study was carried out to probe into the potential consequences of nitric oxide (NO) deprivation on VPA teratogenicity. MATERIALS AND METHODS On gestation day 8, mice were injected with a non-teratogenic dose (20 mg/kg) of the nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl esthe...
Bcl10, a CARD-containing protein identified from the t(1;14)(p22;q32) breakpoint in MALT lymphomas, has been shown to induce apoptosis and activate NF-kappaB in vitro. We show that one-third of bcl10-/- embryos developed exencephaly, leading to embryonic lethality. Surprisingly, bcl10-/- cells retained susceptibility to various apoptotic stimuli in vivo and in vitro. However, surviving bcl10-/-...
