Bmpr Encodes a Type I Bone Morphogenetic Protein Receptor That Is Essential for Gastrulation During Mouse Embryogenesis
Downloaded from genesdev.cshlp.org on October 8, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Bmpr encodes a type I bone morphogenetic protein receptor that is essential for gastrulation during mouse embryogenesis Yuji Mishina, ~ Atsushi Suzuki, 2 Naoto Ueno, 2 and Richard R. Behringer ~'3 1Department of Molecular Genetics, The University of Texas, M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, Texas 77030 USA; ~Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Hokkaido University, Sapporo 060, Japan Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are secreted proteins that interact with cell-surface receptors and are believed to play a variety of important roles during vertebrate embryogenesis. Bmpr, also known as ALK-3 and Brk-1, encodes a type I transforming growth factor-~ (TGF-[3) family receptor for BMP-2 and BMP-4. Bmpr is expressed ubiquitously during early mouse embryogenesis and in most adult mouse tissues. To study the function of Bmpr during mammalian development, we generated Bmpr-mutant mice. After embryonic day 9.5 (E9.5), no homozygous mutants were recovered from heterozygote matings. Homozygous mutants with morphological defects were first detected at E7.0 and were smaller than normal. Morphological and molecular examination demonstrated that no mesoderm had formed in the mutant embryos. The growth characteristics of homozygous mutant blastocysts cultured in vitro were indistinguishable from those of controls; however, embryonic ectoderm (epiblast) cell proliferation was reduced in all homozygous mutants at E6.5 before morphological abnormalities had become prominent. Teratomas arising from E7.0 mutant embryos contained derivatives from all three germ layers but were smaller and gave rise to fewer mesodermal cell types, such as muscle and cartilage, than controls. -

Cancer stem cells have recently been recognized and validated as a key target for cancer treatment. Cripto-1, which is a GPI-anchored membrane-bound protein that functions as a co-receptor of Nodal, is a marker of cancer stem cells. Since Nodal is a member of the TGF-β family, which performs an important role in stem cells and cancer stem cells, the inhibition of Cripto-1 could be a strategy by which to block Nodal signaling and thereby suppress cancer stem cells. We propose that Cripto-1 may be a novel target for cancer immunotherapy. Citation: Ishii, H.; Afify, S.M.; Hassan, G.; Salomon, D.S.; Seno, M. -

Nodal-related signaling factors are required for axis formation and germ layer specification from sea urchins to mammals. Maternal transcripts of the zebrafish Nodal factor, Squint (Sqt), are localized to future embryonic dorsal. The mechanisms by which maternal sqt/nodal RNA is localized and regulated have been unclear. Here, we show that maternal control of Nodal signaling via the conserved Y box-binding protein 1 (Ybx1) is essential. We identified Ybx1 via a proteomic screen.

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated. -
