Nuclear factor I genes regulate neuronal migration.
Neuronal migration plays a central role in the formation of the brain, and deficits in this process can lead to aberrant brain function and subsequent disease. Neuronal migration is a complex process that involves the interaction of the neuron with the surrounding environmental milieu, and as such involves both cell-intrinsic and cell-extrinsic mechanisms. Studies performed in rodent models to ...
متن کاملIdentification of genes that regulate a left-right asymmetric neuronal migration in Caenorhabditis elegans.
In C. elegans, cells of the QL and QR neuroblast lineages migrate with left-right asymmetry; QL and its descendants migrate posteriorly whereas QR and its descendants migrate anteriorly. One key step in generating this asymmetry is the expression of the Hox gene mab-5 in the QL descendants but not in the QR descendants. This asymmetry appears to be coupled to the asymmetric polarizations and mo...
متن کاملAndrogen-responsive serum response factor target genes regulate prostate cancer cell migration.
Progression of prostate cancer (CaP) relies on androgen receptor (AR) signaling, but AR-dependent events that underlie the lethal phenotype remain unknown. Recently, an indirect mechanism of androgen action in which effects of AR on CaP cells are mediated by Serum Response Factor (SRF) has been identified. This is the first mode of androgen action to be associated with aggressive CaP and diseas...

Sorting Neuronal Proteins: Lessons from Epithelial Cells At an anatomical level, the polarities of neurons and epithelial cells appear quite different. In a motor neuron, a meter or more often separates axon terminals from David S.

متن کاملNuclear factor I family members regulate the transcription of surfactant protein-C.
Transcription of the surfactant protein-C (SP-C) gene is restricted to Type II epithelial cells in the adult lung. We have shown previously that the 0.32-kilobase pair (kb) mouse SP-C promoter is functional in transient transfection assays of the lung epithelial cell-derived cell line, MLE-15, and that thyroid transcription factor 1 (TTF-1) transactivates promoter activity. The 0.32-kb SP-C pro...
