  • From Bipotent Neuromesodermal Progenitors to Neural-Mesodermal Interactions During Embryonic Development
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review From Bipotent Neuromesodermal Progenitors to Neural-Mesodermal Interactions during Embryonic Development Nitza Kahane and Chaya Kalcheim * Department of Medical Neurobiology, Institute of Medical Research Israel-Canada (IMRIC) and the Edmond and Lily Safra Center for Brain Sciences (ELSC), Hebrew University of Jerusalem-Hadassah Medical School, P.O. Box 12272, Jerusalem 9112102, Israel; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: To ensure the formation of a properly patterned embryo, multiple processes must operate harmoniously at sequential phases of development. This is implemented by mutual interactions between cells and tissues that together regulate the segregation and specification of cells, their growth and morphogenesis. The formation of the spinal cord and paraxial mesoderm derivatives exquisitely illustrate these processes. Following early gastrulation, while the vertebrate body elongates, a pop- ulation of bipotent neuromesodermal progenitors resident in the posterior region of the embryo generate both neural and mesodermal lineages. At later stages, the somitic mesoderm regulates aspects of neural patterning and differentiation of both central and peripheral neural progenitors. Reciprocally, neural precursors influence the paraxial mesoderm to regulate somite-derived myogen- esis and additional processes by distinct mechanisms. Central to this crosstalk is the activity of the axial notochord, which, via sonic hedgehog signaling, plays pivotal roles in neural, skeletal muscle and cartilage ontogeny. Here, we discuss the cellular and molecular basis underlying this complex Citation: Kahane, N.; Kalcheim, C. developmental plan, with a focus on the logic of sonic hedgehog activities in the coordination of the From Bipotent Neuromesodermal Progenitors to Neural-Mesodermal neural-mesodermal axis.

  • The Evolving Cardiac Lymphatic Vasculature in Development, Repair and Regeneration
    REVIEWS The evolving cardiac lymphatic vasculature in development, repair and regeneration Konstantinos Klaourakis 1,2, Joaquim M. Vieira 1,2,3 ✉ and Paul R. Riley 1,2,3 ✉ Abstract | The lymphatic vasculature has an essential role in maintaining normal fluid balance in tissues and modulating the inflammatory response to injury or pathogens. Disruption of normal development or function of lymphatic vessels can have severe consequences. In the heart, reduced lymphatic function can lead to myocardial oedema and persistent inflammation. Macrophages, which are phagocytic cells of the innate immune system, contribute to cardiac development and to fibrotic repair and regeneration of cardiac tissue after myocardial infarction. In this Review, we discuss the cardiac lymphatic vasculature with a focus on developments over the past 5 years arising from the study of mammalian and zebrafish model organisms. In addition, we examine the interplay between the cardiac lymphatics and macrophages during fibrotic repair and regeneration after myocardial infarction. Finally, we discuss the therapeutic potential of targeting the cardiac lymphatic network to regulate immune cell content and alleviate inflammation in patients with ischaemic heart disease. The circulatory system of vertebrates is composed of two after MI. In this Review, we summarize the current complementary vasculatures, the blood and lymphatic knowledge on the development, structure and function vascular systems1. The blood vasculature is a closed sys- of the cardiac lymphatic vasculature, with an emphasis tem responsible for transporting gases, fluids, nutrients, on breakthroughs over the past 5 years in the study of metabolites and cells to the tissues2.

  • The Drosophila Eye
    Downloaded from genesdev.cshlp.org on October 10, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press mirror encodes a novel PBX-class homeoprotein that functions in the definition of the dorsal-ventral border in the Drosophila eye Helen McNeill, 1 Chung-Hui Yang, 1 Michael Brodsky, 2 Josette Ungos, ~ and Michael A. Simon ~'3 1Department of Biological Sciences, Stanford University, Stanford, California 94305 USA; ZDepartment of Biology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139 USA The Drosophila eye is composed of dorsal and ventral mirror-image fields of opposite chiral forms of ommatidia. The boundary between these fields is known as the equator. We describe a novel gene, mirror (mrr), which is expressed in the dorsal half of the eye and plays a key role in forming the equator. Ectopic equators can be generated by juxtaposing mrr expressing and nonexpressing cells, and the path of the normal equator can be altered by changing the domain of mrr expression. These observations suggest that mrr is a key component in defining the dorsal-ventral boundary of tissue polarity in the eye. In addition, loss of mrr function leads to embryonic lethality and segmental defects, and its expression pattern suggests that it may also act to define segmental borders. Mirror is a member of the class of homeoproteins defined by the human proto-oncogene PBX1. mrr is similar to the Iroquois genes ara and caup and is located adjacent to them in this recently described homeotic cluster.

  • The GATA2 Transcription Factor Negatively Regulates the Proliferation of Neuronal Progenitors
    RESEARCH ARTICLE 2155 Development 133, 2155-2165 (2006) doi:10.1242/dev.02377 The GATA2 transcription factor negatively regulates the proliferation of neuronal progenitors Abeer El Wakil*, Cédric Francius*,†, Annie Wolff, Jocelyne Pleau-Varet† and Jeannette Nardelli†,§ Postmitotic neurons are produced from a pool of cycling progenitors in an orderly fashion that requires proper spatial and temporal coordination of proliferation, fate determination, differentiation and morphogenesis. This probably relies on complex interplay between mechanisms that control cell cycle, specification and differentiation. In this respect, we have studied the possible implication of GATA2, a transcription factor that is involved in several neuronal specification pathways, in the control of the proliferation of neural progenitors in the embryonic spinal cord. Using gain- and loss-of-function manipulations, we have shown that Gata2 can drive neural progenitors out of the cycle and, to some extent, into differentiation. This correlates with the control of cyclin D1 transcription and of the expression of the p27/Kip1 protein. Interestingly, this functional aspect is not only associated with silencing of the Notch pathway but also appears to be independent of proneural function. Consistently, GATA2 also controls the proliferation capacity of mouse embryonic neuroepithelial cells in culture. Indeed, Gata2 inactivation enhances the proliferation rate in these cells. By contrast, GATA2 overexpression is sufficient to force such cells and neuroblastoma cells to stop dividing but not to drive either type of cell into differentiation. Furthermore, a non-cell autonomous effect of Gata2 expression was observed in vivo as well as in vitro. Hence, our data have provided evidence for the ability of Gata2 to inhibit the proliferation of neural progenitors, and they further suggest that, in this regard, Gata2 can operate independently of neuronal differentiation.

  • Lymphangiogenesis and Angiogenesis During Human Fetal
    Roost et al. Vascular Cell 2014, 6:22 http://www.vascularcell.com/content/6/1/22 VASCULAR CELL RESEARCH Open Access Lymphangiogenesis and angiogenesis during human fetal pancreas development Matthias S Roost1, Liesbeth van Iperen1, Ana de Melo Bernardo1, Christine L Mummery1, Françoise Carlotti2, Eelco JP de Koning2,3 and Susana M Chuva de Sousa Lopes1,4* Abstract Background: The complex endocrine and exocrine functionality of the human pancreas depends on an efficient fluid transport through the blood and the lymphatic vascular systems. The lymphatic vasculature has key roles in the physiology of the pancreas and in regulating the immune response, both important for developing successful transplantation and cell-replacement therapies to treat diabetes. However, little is known about how the lymphatic and blood systems develop in humans. Here, we investigated the establishment of these two vascular systems in human pancreas organogenesis in order to understand neovascularization in the context of emerging regenerative therapies. Methods: We examined angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis during human pancreas development between 9 and 22 weeks of gestation (W9-W22) by immunohistochemistry. Results: As early as W9, the peri-pancreatic mesenchyme was populated by CD31-expressing blood vessels as well as LYVE1- and PDPN-expressing lymphatic vessels. The appearance of smooth muscle cell-coated blood vessels in the intra-pancreatic mesenchyme occurred only several weeks later and from W14.5 onwards the islets of Langerhans also became heavily irrigated by blood vessels. In contrast to blood vessels, LYVE1- and PDPN-expressing lymphatic vessels were restricted to the peri-pancreatic mesenchyme until later in development (W14.5-W17), and some of these invading lymphatic vessels contained smooth muscle cells at W17.

  • Neural Crest Cells Organize the Eye Via TGF-Β and Canonical Wnt Signalling
    ARTICLE Received 18 Oct 2010 | Accepted 9 Mar 2011 | Published 5 Apr 2011 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms1269 Neural crest cells organize the eye via TGF-β and canonical Wnt signalling Timothy Grocott1, Samuel Johnson1, Andrew P. Bailey1,† & Andrea Streit1 In vertebrates, the lens and retina arise from different embryonic tissues raising the question of how they are aligned to form a functional eye. Neural crest cells are crucial for this process: in their absence, ectopic lenses develop far from the retina. Here we show, using the chick as a model system, that neural crest-derived transforming growth factor-βs activate both Smad3 and canonical Wnt signalling in the adjacent ectoderm to position the lens next to the retina. They do so by controlling Pax6 activity: although Smad3 may inhibit Pax6 protein function, its sustained downregulation requires transcriptional repression by Wnt-initiated β-catenin. We propose that the same neural crest-dependent signalling mechanism is used repeatedly to integrate different components of the eye and suggest a general role for the neural crest in coordinating central and peripheral parts of the sensory nervous system. 1 Department of Craniofacial Development, King’s College London, Guy’s Campus, London SE1 9RT, UK. †Present address: NIMR, Developmental Neurobiology, Mill Hill, London NW7 1AA, UK.
