p63 delegates during skin development
p63 delegates during skin development A molecular sibling of the cancer-fighting protein p53 orchestrates development of the epidermis by stimulating expression of a chromatin-reorganizing protein, Fessing et al. reveal. Although it doesn’t receive the same attention as its more famous sibling, p63 performs an equally important job. Mice lacking the protein die shortly after birth from dehydrat...
متن کاملMolecular histology in skin appendage morphogenesis.
Classical histological studies have demonstrated the cellular organization of skin appendages and helped us appreciate the intricate structures and function of skin appendages. At this juncture, questions can be directed to determine how these cellular organizations are achieved. How do cells rearrange themselves to form the complex cyto-architecture of skin appendages? What are the molecular b...
متن کاملSpotlight on p63 p63, Cellular Senescence and Tumor Development
Deficiency of p63, a p53-related protein, causes severe defects in epithelial morphogenesis. Studies of p63-compromised mouse models reveal that p63 deficiency induces cellular senescence both in cultured cells and in vivo, through regulation p19Arf/p53 and p16Ink4a/Rb pathways. An extensive tumor study of p63-compromised mice demonstrated that p63 deficiency does not predispose to, but rather ...
متن کاملConserved features and evolutionary shifts of the EDA signaling pathway involved in vertebrate skin appendage development.
It is widely accepted that evolutionary changes in conserved developmental signaling pathways play an important role in morphological evolution. However, few in silico studies were interested in tracking such changes in a signaling pathway. The Ectodysplasin (EDA) pathway provides an opportunity to fill this gap because it is involved in vertebrate skin appendage development such as scales, tee...
متن کاملp63 expression in normal skin and usual cutaneous carcinomas.
BACKGROUND p63 is a p53 homologue that is mapped to chromosome 3q27. This gene encodes six different isoforms, which have either transactivating or dominant negative effects on p53-reporter genes. It has been described that in contrast to p53, p63 seems not to be associated with tumor predisposition, as neither p63 knockout mouse models nor germline p63 mutations are related to an increased ris...
