P-88: Assessing Expression Changes of Some Wnt Pathway Genes During Goat Early Embryonic Development
Background: The developmental competency of embryos is affected by several factors, including the developmental pathways and their elements. In mammalian species including goat, fertilized oocyte undergoes several divisions to form a structure called blastocyst. These events depend on the successful control of temporal and spatial expression of genes involved in genome activation. One of the cr...
متن کاملWnt target genes and where to find them
Wnt/β-catenin signaling is highly conserved throughout metazoans, is required for numerous essential events in development, and serves as a stem cell niche signal in many contexts. Misregulation of the pathway is linked to several human pathologies, most notably cancer. Wnt stimulation results in stabilization and nuclear import of β-catenin, which then acts as a transcriptional co-activator. T...
متن کاملThe Canonical Wnt Signaling (Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway): A Potential Target for Cancer Prevention and Therapy
Precise regulation of signal transduction pathways is crucial for normal animal development and for maintaining cellular and tissue homeostasis in adults. The Wnt/Frizzled-mediated signaling includes canonical and non-canonical signal transduction pathways. Upregulation or downregulation of the canonical Wnt-signaling (or the Wnt/β-Catenin signal transduction) leads to a variety of human diseas...
متن کاملMouse Wnt genes exhibit discrete domains of expression in the early embryonic CNS and limb buds.
Mutation and expression studies have implicated the Wnt gene family in early developmental decision making in vertebrates and flies. In a detailed comparative analysis, we have used in situ hybridization of 8.0- to 9.5-day mouse embryos to characterize expression of all ten published Wnt genes in the central nervous system (CNS) and limb buds. Seven of the family members show restricted express...
متن کاملExpression patterns of Wnt genes in mouse gut development
Wnt signaling regulates cell fate decisions and cell proliferation during development and in adult tissues in both invertebrates and vertebrates. Here we describe the identification of Wnt genes, Wnt2a, 4, 5a, 5b, 6 and 11, expressed in mouse embryonic gut development. Each of these genes exhibits a characteristic and regional-specific expression pattern along the anterior-posterior axis of the...
