CDX4 Regulates the Progression of Neural Maturation in the Spinal Cord

In the vertebrate spinal cord, FGF, Wnt and Retinoic Acid Neurogenesis signaling pathways regulate the progressive caudal-to-rostral maturation of neural progenitors by regulating a Spinal cord poorly understood gene regulatory network of transcription factors. We have mapped out this gene regulatory Gene regulatory network network in the chicken pre-neural tube, identifying CDX4 as a dual-function core component that simultaneously regulates gradual loss of cell potency and acquisition of differentiation states: in a caudal-to-rostral direction, CDX4 represses the early neural differentiation marker Nkx1.2 and promotes the late neural differentiation marker Pax6. Significantly, CDX4 prevents premature PAX6-dependent neural differentiation by blocking Ngn2 activation. This regulation of CDX4 over Pax6 is restricted to the rostral pre-neural tube by Retinoic Acid signaling. -

ARTICLE Received 3 May 2012 | Accepted 5 Nov 2012 | Published 4 Dec 2012 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms2254 The RB family is required for the self-renewal and survival of human embryonic stem cells Jamie F. Conklin1,2,3, Julie Baker2,3 & Julien Sage1,2,3 The mechanisms ensuring the long-term self-renewal of human embryonic stem cells are still only partly understood, limiting their use in cellular therapies. Here we found that increased activity of the RB cell cycle inhibitor in human embryonic stem cells induces cell cycle arrest, differentiation and cell death. Conversely, inactivation of the entire RB family (RB, p107 and p130) in human embryonic stem cells triggers G2/M arrest and cell death through functional activation of the p53 pathway and the cell cycle inhibitor p21. Differences in E2F target gene activation upon loss of RB family function between human embryonic stem cells, mouse embryonic stem cells and human fibroblasts underscore key differences in the cell cycle regulatory networks of human embryonic stem cells. Finally, loss of RB family function pro- motes genomic instability in both human and mouse embryonic stem cells, uncoupling cell cycle defects from chromosomal instability. These experiments indicate that a homeostatic level of RB activity is essential for the self-renewal and the survival of human embryonic stem cells. 1 Department of Pediatrics, Stanford Medical School, Stanford, California 94305, USA. 2 Department of Genetics, Stanford Medical School, Stanford, California 94305, USA. 3 Institute for Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine, Stanford Medical School, Stanford, California 94305, USA.

Paolo Dotto email: [email protected] 1 Abstract The incidence of many cancer types is significantly higher in the male than female populations, with associated differences in survival. Occupational and/or behavioral factors are well known underlying determinants. However, cellular/molecular differences between the two sexes are also likely to be important. We are focusing here on the complex interplay that sexual hormones and sex chromosomes can have in intrinsic control of cancer initiating cell populations, tumor microenvironment and systemic determinants of cancer development like the immune system and metabolism. A better appreciation of these differences between the two sexes could be of substantial value for cancer prevention as well as treatment. -

Hoxb1 Controls Anteroposterior Identity of Vestibular Projection Neurons
Hoxb1 Controls Anteroposterior Identity of Vestibular Projection Neurons Yiju Chen1, Masumi Takano-Maruyama1, Bernd Fritzsch2, Gary O. Gaufo1* 1 Department of Biology, University of Texas at San Antonio, San Antonio, Texas, United States of America, 2 Department of Biology, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa, United States of America Abstract The vestibular nuclear complex (VNC) consists of a collection of sensory relay nuclei that integrates and relays information essential for coordination of eye movements, balance, and posture. Spanning the majority of the hindbrain alar plate, the rhombomere (r) origin and projection pattern of the VNC have been characterized in descriptive works using neuroanatomical tracing. However, neither the molecular identity nor developmental regulation of individual nucleus of the VNC has been determined. To begin to address this issue, we found that Hoxb1 is required for the anterior-posterior (AP) identity of precursors that contribute to the lateral vestibular nucleus (LVN). Using a gene-targeted Hoxb1-GFP reporter in the mouse, we show that the LVN precursors originate exclusively from r4 and project to the spinal cord in the stereotypic pattern of the lateral vestibulospinal tract that provides input into spinal motoneurons driving extensor muscles of the limb. The r4-derived LVN precursors express the transcription factors Phox2a and Lbx1, and the glutamatergic marker Vglut2, which together defines them as dB2 neurons. Loss of Hoxb1 function does not alter the glutamatergic phenotype of dB2 neurons, but alters their stereotyped spinal cord projection. Moreover, at the expense of Phox2a, the glutamatergic determinants Lmx1b and Tlx3 were ectopically expressed by dB2 neurons. Our study suggests that the Hox genes determine the AP identity and diversity of vestibular precursors, including their output target, by coordinating the expression of neurotransmitter determinant and target selection properties along the AP axis. -

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.
