An Invitation to T and More Notch Signaling in Lymphopoiesis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cell fate decisions in metazoans are regulated by Notch signals. During lymphoid development, Notch influences a series of cell fate decisions involving multipotent progenitors. This review focuses on current views and lingering uncertainties about Notch function in lymphoid cells.

Active form of Notch members can enforce T lymphopoiesis on lymphoid progenitors in the monolayer culture specific for B cell development.
The in vitro induction of T lymphopoiesis needs the precise stereoscopic structure of thymus tissues as seen in fetal thymus organ culture. In this study, we demonstrated for the first time that the introduction of the intracellular region of Notch1 can induce T cells expressing TCR without any thymic environment. In the coculture on the monolayer of OP-9, which was originally known to support ...
متن کاملNotch signaling in hematopoiesis and lymphopoiesis: lessons from Drosophila.
The evolutionarily conserved Notch signaling pathway regulates a broad spectrum of cell fate decisions and differentiation processes during fetal and postnatal life. It is involved in embryonic organogenesis as well as in the maintenance of homeostasis of self-renewing systems. In this article, we review the role of Notch signaling in the hematopoietic system with particular emphasis on lymphoc...
متن کاملProtein O-fucosyltransferase 1 (Pofut1) regulates lymphoid and myeloid homeostasis through modulation of Notch receptor ligand interactions.
Notch signaling is essential for lymphocyte development and is also implicated in myelopoiesis. Notch receptors are modified by O-fucosylation catalyzed by protein O-fucosyltransferase 1 (Pofut1). Fringe enzymes add N-acetylglucosamine to O-fucose and modify Notch signaling by altering the sensitivity of Notch receptors to Notch ligands. To address physiologic functions in hematopoiesis of Notc...
متن کاملObligatory role for cooperative signaling by pre-TCR and Notch during thymocyte differentiation.
The first checkpoint during T cell development, known as beta selection, requires the successful rearrangement of the TCR-beta gene locus. Notch signaling has been implicated in various stages during T lymphopoiesis. However, it is unclear whether Notch receptor-ligand interactions are necessary during beta selection. Here, we show that pre-TCR signaling concurrent with Notch receptor and Delta...
متن کاملNotch signaling is necessary for GATA3 function in the initiation of T cell development.
GATA3 and Notch1 are essential for T cell development at the earliest stage, but their mutual roles in this process remain to be clarified. In this study, we demonstrated that impairment of T lymphopoiesis in hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC) of GATA3-deficient fetal liver (FL) on day 11.5 of gestation (E11.5) was rescued only by introduction of both GATA3 and the intracellular region of Not...
