Abstract
Splicing factors required for mRNA maturation have emerged as important contributors to neural crest development in the craniofacial region. Less is known of the role of these proteins in vagal neural crest cells that contribute to the outflow tract and form the enteric nervous system. In this review, we discuss the current state of our understanding of splicing and potential contribution of mis-splicing to cardiac and ENS defects.
期刊介绍:
Differentiation is a multidisciplinary journal dealing with topics relating to cell differentiation, development, cellular structure and function, and cancer. Differentiation of eukaryotes at the molecular level and the use of transgenic and targeted mutagenesis approaches to problems of differentiation are of particular interest to the journal.
The journal will publish full-length articles containing original work in any of these areas. We will also publish reviews and commentaries on topics of current interest.
The principal subject areas the journal covers are: • embryonic patterning and organogenesis
• human development and congenital malformation
• mechanisms of cell lineage commitment
• tissue homeostasis and oncogenic transformation
• establishment of cellular polarity
• stem cell differentiation
• cell reprogramming mechanisms
• stability of the differentiated state
• cell and tissue interactions in vivo and in vitro
• signal transduction pathways in development and differentiation
• carcinogenesis and cancer
• mechanisms involved in cell growth and division especially relating to cancer
• differentiation in regeneration and ageing
• therapeutic applications of differentiation processes.
