Roles of bHLH genes in neural stem cell differentiation.

Abstract:

:Neural stem cells change their characteristics over time during development: they initially proliferate only and then give rise to neurons first and glial cells later. In the absence of the repressor-type basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) genes Hes1, Hes3 and Hes5, neural stem cells do not proliferate sufficiently but prematurely differentiate into neurons and become depleted without making the later born cell types such as astrocytes and ependymal cells. Thus, Hes genes are essential for maintenance of neural stem cells to make cells not only in correct numbers but also in full diversity. Hes genes antagonize the activator-type bHLH genes, which include Mash1, Math and Neurogenin. The activator-type bHLH genes promote the neuronal fate determination and induce expression of Notch ligands such as Delta. These ligands activate Notch signaling and upregulate Hes1 and Hes5 expression in neighboring cells, thereby maintaining these cells undifferentiated. Thus, the activator-type and repressor-type bHLH genes regulate each other, allowing only subsets of cells to undergo differentiation while keeping others to stay neural stem cells. This regulation is essential for generation of complex brain structures of appropriate size, shape and cell arrangement.

  • Secreted collagen induced by ascorbic acid in L5 cloned muscle cultures does not affect acetylcholine receptor expression.

    abstract::Previous studies have shown that ascorbic acid increases both the total surface acetylcholine receptor (AChR) expression and the mRNA for the alpha-subunit of this receptor in myotubes of cloned L5 muscle cultures. Since ascorbic acid increases collagen synthesis in fibroblasts, we studied the effect of ascorbic acid ...
