Expression of Spred and Sprouty in developing rat lung
Sproutys and Sprouty-related proteins, Spred-1 and -2, are known inhibitors of fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling, which plays key role in lung branching morphogenesis and the development of other tissues. The present study demonstrates that Spreds are expressed in a variety of rat embryonic tissues (brain, intestine, heart, skin) including the lung. In the embryonic lung, Spreds and Spro...
متن کاملFgf9 signalling stimulates Spred and Sprouty expression in embryonic mouse pancreas mesenchyme.
Epithelial-mesenchymal interactions are critical for normal pancreas development. Fibroblast growth factor (Fgf)-10 is expressed in the pancreatic mesenchyme and its signalling is required for normal growth and regulation of gene expression in the pancreatic epithelium. However, little is known about putative Fgf signalling to the mesenchyme. Here we have examined the embryonic pancreas express...
متن کاملFGF signal interpretation is directed by Sprouty and Spred proteins during mesoderm formation.
Vertebrate gastrulation requires coordination of mesoderm specification with morphogenetic movements. While both of these processes require FGF signaling, it is not known how mesoderm specification and cell movements are coordinated during gastrulation. The related Sprouty and Spred protein families are recently discovered regulators of receptor tyrosine kinase signaling. We identified two gene...
متن کاملDifferential Expression of Cyclic Nucleotide Phosphodiesterases 4 in Developing Rat Lung Running Title: PDE4 in developing rat lung
During the perinatal period, lungs undergo changes to adapt to air breathing. The genes involved in these changes are developmentally regulated by various signaling pathways, including the cyclic nucleotide cAMP. As PDE4s are critical enzymes for regulation of cAMP levels, the objective of this study was to investigate PDE4s ontogeny in developing rat lung during the perinatal period. Pulmonary...
متن کاملDistinct requirements for the Sprouty domain for functional activity of Spred proteins.
Sprouty and Spred {Sprouty-related EVH1 [Ena/VASP (vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein) homology 1] domain} proteins have been identified as antagonists of growth factor signalling pathways. We show here that Spred-1 and Spred-2 appear to have distinct mechanisms whereby they induce their effects, as the Sprouty domain of Spred-1 is not required to block MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase...
