Cell cycle regulation during early mouse embryogenesis.

چکیده
Elaboration of a multicellular organism requires highly efficient coordination between proliferation and developmental processes. Accordingly, the embryonic cell cycle exhibits a high degree of plasticity; however, the mechanisms underlying its regulation in vivo remain largely unknown. The purpose of this review is to summarize the data on cell cycle regulation during the early mouse embryonic development, a period characterized by major variations in cell cycle parameters which correlate with important developmental transitions. In particular, we analyse the contribution of mutant mice to the study of in vivo cell cycle regulation during early development and discuss possible contributions of cell cycle regulators to developmental programs.

Potential roles of 5´ UTR and 3´ UTR regions in post-trans-criptional regulation of mouse Oct4 gene in BMSC and P19 cells
Objective(s):OCT4 is a transcription factor required for pluripotency during early embryogenesis and the maintenance of identity of embryonic stem cells and pluripotent cells. Therefore, the effective expression regulation of this gene is highly critical. UTR regions are of great significance to gene regulation. In this study, we aimed to investigate the potential regulatory role played by 5´UT...
متن کاملTime Course of Degradation and Deadenylation of Maternal c-mos and Cyclin A2 mRNA during Early Development of One-Cell Embryo in Mouse
Early in the development of many animals, before transcription begins, any change in the pattern of protein synthesis is attributed to a change in the translational activity or stability of mRNA in the egg and early embryo. As a result, translational control is critical for a variety of developmental decisions, including oocyte maturation and initiation of preimplantation development. In this s...
متن کاملTranslational regulation of the cell cycle: when, where, how and why?
Translational regulation contributes to the control of archetypal and specialized cell cycles, such as the meiotic and early embryonic cycles. Late meiosis and early embryogenesis unfold in the absence of transcription, so they particularly rely on translational repression and activation of stored maternal mRNAs. Here, we present examples of cell cycle regulators that are translationally contro...
متن کاملFLASH/casp8ap2 Is Indispensable for Early Embryogenesis but Dispensable for Proliferation and Differentiation of ES Cells
FLICE/caspase-8-associated huge protein (FLASH)/casp8ap2 is involved in various cellular functions, such as cell cycle progression, transcriptional regulation, the regulation of apoptosis, and the regulation of histone gene expression. The down-regulated expression of FLASH has been shown to inhibit cell cycle progression in the S phase in many kinds of mice and human cell lines and the inhibit...
متن کاملFocal Adhesion Kinase (FAK) Involvement in Human Endometrial Remodeling During the Menstrual Cycle
Background: Endometrial remodeling occurs during each menstrual cycle in women. Reports have shown that, in a variety of cell types, processes such as proliferation, signaling complex formation and extra cellular matrix remodeling require a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase, focal adhesion kinase (FAK). The present study has focused on the expression pattern of FAK in human endometrium during the men...
