During segmentation, Engrailed is expressed in stripes with a single segmental periodicity in <em>Drosophila</em>, which is conserved in all arthropods examined so far. To define segments, the segmental stripes of Engrailed induce the segmental stripes of <em>wingless</em> at each parasegmental boundary. However, segmentation functions of orthologs of <em>engrailed</em> in non-<em>Drosophila</em> arthropods have yet to be reported. Here, we analyzed functions of the <em>Tribolium</em> ortholog of <em>engrailed</em> (<em>Tc-engrailed</em>) during embryonic segmentation. Larval cuticles with <em>Tc-engrailed</em> being knocked down had segmentation phenotypes including incomplete segment formation and loss of a group of segments. In agreement with the cuticle segmentation defects, segments developed incompletely and irregularly or did not form in <em>Tribolium</em> germbands where <em>Tc-engrailed</em> was knocked down. Furthermore, knock-down of <em>Tc-engrailed</em> did not properly express the segmental stripes of <em>wingless</em> in <em>Tribolium</em> germbands. Taken together with the conserved expression patterns of Engrailed in arthropod segmentation, our data suggest that <em>Tc-engrailed</em> is required for embryonic segmentation in <em>Tribolium,</em> and the genetic mechanism of Engrailed inducing <em>wingless</em> expression is conserved at least between <em>Drosophila</em> and <em>Tribolium</em>.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":49844,"journal":{"name":"Mechanisms of Development","volume":"161 ","pages":"Article 103594"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2020-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.mod.2019.103594","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46447253","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, because the <em>Ptch1</em> null mutation is lethal early in mouse embryogenesis, its role in controlling cell cycle progression, neurogenesis, and axon guidance in the developing spinal cord is not fully understood. An allele of Ptch1 called <em>Wiggable</em> (<em>Ptch1</em><sup><em>Wig</em></sup>), which was previously shown to enhance Shh signaling, was used to test its ability to regulate neurogenesis and proliferation in the developing spinal cord. <em>Ptch1</em><sup><em>Wig/Wig</em></sup> mutants displayed enhanced ventral proneural gene activation, and aberrant proliferation of the neural tube and floor plate cells, the latter normally being a quiescent population.

Most importantly, zebrafish are continuously accessible for imaging during critical periods of skull formation when both mouse and chick are physically inaccessible. To establish a foundation of information on the dynamics of skull formation, we performed a longitudinal study based on confocal microscopy of individual live transgenic zebrafish. Discrete events occur at stereotyped stages in overall growth, with little variation in timing among individuals. The frontal and parietal bones initiate as small clusters of cells closely associated with cartilage around the perimeter of the skull, prior to metamorphosis and the transition to juvenile fish. Over a period of ~30 days, the frontal and parietal bones grow towards the apex of the skull and meet to begin suture formation. To aid in visualization, we have generated interactive three–dimensional models based on the imaging data, with annotated cartilage and bone elements. We propose a framework to conceptualize development of bones of the skull vault in three phases: initiation in close association with cartilage; rapid planar growth towards the apex of the skull; and finally overlapping to form sutures. Our data provide an important framework for comparing the stages and timing of skull development across model organisms, and also a baseline for the examination of zebrafish mutants affecting skull development.

Transparent lines of zebrafish, especially the <em>Casper</em> double mutant, allow direct observation and analysis of reproductive events in the gonads in vivo. The natural production of fertilized eggs in zebrafish is a complex process involving oogenesis, spermatogenesis, mating behavior, endocrine and neurological processes with inputs from the environment including light, temperature and nutrition. While these factors play important roles, the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis (HPGA) is central in the regulation of embryo output. Endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) include a variety of pollutants often present in the environment. EDCs may have direct effects on the HPGA or indirect effects through toxic action on supporting organs such as the liver or kidney. Estrogenic compounds such as diethylstilbestrol (DES) have been reported to affect reproduction in a variety of species including man. In this study, the effects of DES on reproduction were determined in a novel way by using transparent <em>Casper</em> zebrafish that allow direct visualization of gonad status over time. Changes in gonad status with DES treatment were correlated with effects on secondary sex characteristics (i.e., genital vent size and breeding tubercles) spawning and embryo production.

Our findings demonstrated that the loss of CFTR impairs cardiac development from the cardiac progenitor stage, resulting in cardiac looping defects, a dilated atrium, pericardial edema, and a decrease in heart rate. Furthermore, we found that cardiac development was perturbed in wild-type embryos treated with a gating-specific CFTR channel inhibitor, CFTRinh-172, at the blastula stage of development, but not at later stages. Gene expression analysis of blastulas indicated that transcript levels, including mRNAs associated with cardiovascular diseases, were significantly altered in embryos derived from cftr mutants relative to controls. To evaluate the role of CFTR in human heart failure, we performed a genetic association study on individuals with dilated cardiomyopathy and found that the I556V mutation in CFTR, which causes a channel defect, was associated with the disease. Similar to other well-studied channel-defective CFTR mutants, CFTR I556V mRNA failed to restore cardiac dysplasia in mutant embryos.

These observations may have important meaning with respect to the previously demonstrated retention of regenerative capacity throughout the mouse mammary gland despite age or reproductive history.
