The tumor suppressor merlin is required for cell cycle exit, terminal differentiation, and cell polarity in the developing murine lens.
PURPOSE. Neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) is an autosomal-dominant CNS tumor syndrome that affects 1:25,000 children and young adults. More than 50% of NF2 patients also develop posterior subcapsular cataracts (PSCs). The authors deleted Nf2 from the lens to determine its role in fiber cell differentiation. METHODS. Nf2 was conditionally deleted from murine lenses using the LeCre transgene. Stand...
متن کاملCell Cycle Regulation in Plants.
Cell division plays a crucial role during a11 phases of plant development. Continuing organogenesis and plastic growth responses to a changing environment require precise spatial, temporal, and developmental regulation of cell division activity in meristems. The molecular analysis of cell division and its regulation in plants lags far behind such studies in yeast and animals. Since the cell the...
متن کاملCardiomyocyte cell cycle regulation.
Although rapid progress is being made in many areas of molecular cardiology, issues pertaining to the origins of heart-forming cells, the mechanisms responsible for cardiogenic induction, and the pathways that regulate cardiomyocyte proliferation during embryonic and adult life remain unanswered. In the present study, we review approaches and studies that have shed some light on cardiomyocyte c...
متن کاملCell-cycle regulation.
Cell-division control affects many aspects of development. Caenorhabditis elegans cell-cycle genes have been identified over the past decade, including at least two distinct Cyclin-Dependent Kinases (CDKs), their cyclin partners, positive and negative regulators, and downstream targets. The balance between CDK activation and inactivation determines whether cells proceed through G1 into S phase,...
متن کاملEffects of berberine on the secretion of cytokines and expression of genes involved in cell cycle regulation in THP-1 monocytic cell line
Objective(s): Current acute myeloid leukemia (AML) therapeutic strategies have irreversible side-effects. Berberine (BBR) is an isoquinoline alkaloid, which has been known as an aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) ligand. AhR is a cytoplasmic receptor, which is involved in the regulation of cellular and immune responses. Here, we investigated the expression profile of genes involved in the cell cyc...
