The heart develops from a linear tubular precursor, which loops to the right and undergoes terminal differentiation to form the multichambered heart. Heart looping is the earliest manifestation of left-right asymmetry and determines the eventual heart situs. The signalling processes that impart laterality to the unlooped heart tube and thus allow the developing organ to interpret the left-right...
The development of organs with an epithelial parenchyma relies on reciprocal mesenchymal-epithelial communication. Mouse corneal epithelium stratification is the consequence of a coordinated developmental process based on mesenchymal-epithelial interactions. The molecular mechanism underlying these interactions remains unclear. The Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway is involved in fundamental aspe...
During postnatal development, the hair follicle (HF) shows cyclic activity with periods of relative resting, active growth (anagen), and regression. We demonstrate that similar to the HF induction in embryonic skin, initiation of a new hair growth phase in postnatal skin requires neutralization of the inhibitory activity of bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) by the BMP antagonist noggin. In th...
The transforming growth factor-beta-related factor bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) is expressed in the human embryonic aorta-gonad-mesonephros (AGM) coincident with the emergence of haematopoietic cells and influences postnatal mammalian haematopoietic stem cells in vitro. To investigate the role of BMP4 in mammalian embryonic haematopoiesis, cells were isolated from murine AGM and two popu...
Reduced BMP4 abundance in Gata2 hypomorphic mutant mice result in uropathies resembling human CAKUT.
Constitutive loss of transcription factor GATA-2 leads to embryonic lethality from primitive erythropoietic failure. We serendipitously discovered an essential contribution of GATA-2 to urogenital development when the hematopoietic deficiency of Gata2 null mutant animals was complemented by a Gata2 yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) transgene; these mice died from a perinatal lethal urogenital a...
Human glioma, in particular, malignant forms such as glioblastoma exhibit dismal survival rates despite advances in treatment strategies. A population of glioma cells with stem-like features, glioma cancer stem-like cells (GCSCs), contribute to renewal and maintenance of the tumor cell population and appear responsible for chemotherapeutic and radiation resistance. Bone morphogenetic protein 4 ...
The type beta transforming growth factor family is composed of a series of processed, secreted growth factors, several of which have been implicated in important regulatory roles in cell determination, inductive interactions, and tissue differentiation. Among these factors, the sequence of the DPP protein from Drosophila is most similar to two of the vertebrate bone morphogenetic proteins, BMP2...
Bmp4 is a downstream gene of Msx1 in early mouse tooth development. In this study, we introduced the Msx1-Bmp4 transgenic allele to the Msx1 mutants in which tooth development is arrested at the bud stage in an effort of rescuing Msx1 mutant tooth phenotype in vivo. Ectopic expression of a Bmp4 transgene driven by the mouse Msx1promoter in the dental mesenchyme restored the expression of Lef-1 ...
Bmper, which is orthologous to Drosophila melanogaster crossveinless 2, is a secreted factor that regulates Bmp activity in a tissue- and stage-dependent manner. Both pro- and anti-Bmp activities have been postulated for Bmper, although the molecular mechanisms through which Bmper affects Bmp signaling are unclear. In this paper, we demonstrate that as molar concentrations of Bmper exceed Bmp4,...
Recent advances have identified an important role of bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) in pulmonary vascular remodeling, yet the underlying mechanisms remain largely unexplored. We have previously found that Ca(2+) influx through store-operated calcium channels (SOCC), which are mainly thought to be composed of canonical transient receptor potential (TRPC) proteins, likely contribute to the p...
