Dental trigeminal nerve fiber growth and patterning are strictly integrated with tooth morphogenesis, but it is still unknown, how these two developmental processes are coordinated. Here we show that targeted inactivation of the dental epithelium expressed Fgfr2b results in cessation of the mouse mandibular first molar development at the degenerated cap stage and the failure of the trigeminal molar nerve to establish the lingual branch at E13.5 stage while the buccal branch develops properly. This axon patterning defect correlates to the histological absence of the mesenchymal dental follicle and adjacent Semaphorin3A-free dental follicle target field as well as appearance of ectopic Sema3A expression domain in the lingual side of the epithelial bud. Although the mesenchymal ligands for Fgfr2b, Fgf3 and -10 were present in the Fgfr2b(-/)(-) dental mesenchyme, mutant dental epithelium showed dramatically reduced proliferation and the lack of Fgf3. Tgfbeta1, which controls Sema3A was absent from the Fgfr2b(-/-) tooth germ, and Sema3A was specifically downregulated in the dental mesenchyme at the bud and cap stage. In addition, the epithelial primary enamel knot signaling center although being molecularly present neither was histologically detectable nor expressed Bmp4 and Fgf3 as well as Fgf4, which is essential for tooth morphogenesis and stimulates mesenchymal Fgf3 and Tgfbeta1. Fgf4 beads rescued Tgfbeta1 in the Fgfr2b(-/-) dental mesenchyme explants and Tgfbeta1 induced de novo Sema3A expression in the dental mesenchyme. Collectively these results demonstrate that epithelial Fgfr2b controls tooth morphogenesis and dental axon patterning, and suggests that Fgfr2b, by mediating local epithelial-mesenchymal interactions, integrates these two distinct developmental processes during odontogenesis. 相似文献

Summary The cervicovaginal epithelium of neonatal mice produces a material with specific antigenic properties (CVA) and this material is produced in increased amounts after estradiol treatment. Using a cytochemical method, estradiol treatment was shown to result in an increase of adenylate cyclase activity in the same epithelium.When d-propranolol is injected together with estradiol, the increase in CVA is inhibited, while the hormone-induced proliferation of epithelial cells is not influenced. When adenylate cyclase activity is studied under identical conditions, the estradiol-promoted increase in enzyme activity is largely counteracted by d-propranolol. These findings would suggest that Adenosine 35-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) has a role in some, but not all, estradiol-mediated effects in the neonatal cervicovaginal epithelium.This work was supported by grants from the Norwegian Research Council for Science and the Humanities and from the Norwegian Cancer Society (Landsforeningen mot Kreft) 相似文献

The cAMP-dependent protein kinase (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37), has been studied in the vaginal epithelium, vaginal stroma, endometrium, and whole uterus of spayed mice treated with oestradiol-17 beta, and in the vaginal epithelium and uterus of spayed mice. Two protein kinase isoenzymes (PK I and PK II) were found in whole uterus, endometrium, and vaginal stroma. Vaginal epithelium contained only one isoenzyme (PK II). Oestradiol treatment increased PK I relative to PK II in the uterus. The isoenzyme pattern in the vaginal epithelium was unaltered after such treatment. The total protein kinase activity was 70% higher in uterine extracts (cytosol) than in extracts from vaginal epithelium. Oestradiol treatment did not influence the total protein kinase activity in either tissue. 相似文献

The distribution of the tachykinin receptors neurokinin-1 (NK1), neurokinin-2 (NK2) and neurokinin-3 (NK3), and the calcitonin gene-related peptide-1 (CGRP1) receptor were examined in rat teeth and tooth-supporting tissues by immunohistochemical methods and light and confocal microscopy. Western blot analysis was performed to identify the NK1- and the CGRP1-receptor proteins in the dental pulp. The results showed that odontoblasts and ameloblasts, cementoblasts and cementocytes, osteoblasts and osteocytes are all supported with the tachykinin receptors NK1 and NK2, but a distinct, graded cellular labeling pattern was demonstrated. The ameloblasts were also positive for CGRP1 receptor. Blood vessels in oral tissues expressed the tachykinin receptors NK1, NK2 and NK3, and the CGRP1 receptor. Both gingival and Malassez epithelium were abundantly supplied by NK2 receptor. Pulpal and periodontal fibroblasts demonstrated NK1 and NK2 receptors. Western blot analysis identified both the NK1- and the CGRP1-receptor proteins in the dental pulp. These results clearly indicate that the neuropeptides substance P, neurokinin A, neurokinin B and CGRP, released from sensory axons upon stimulation, directly modulate the function of the different types of bone and dental hard tissue cells, and regulate functions of blood vessels, fibroblasts and epithelial cells in oral tissues. 相似文献

Summary The distribution of an antigenic material specific for the cervicovaginal epithelium (CVA) was studied in the vaginal epithelium of the adult mouse with immunofluorescence and immunoferritin techniques. The antigen localization has been correlated to the fine structure of the vaginal epithelium in various states of functional activity. The antigen distribution in adult ovariectomized mice and in ovariectomized mice treated with estradiol was compared with that in normal cycling mice. CVA was found to be associated with the exterior of the cell membrane of vaginal epithelium cells, being part of the glycocalyx.Two cell types, mucous or keratinized, are derived from the germinative cell layer of the vaginal epithelium, depending on the hormonal environment. Mucous cells with morphological features that characterize cells about to cornify have been demonstrated. Fluorescence as well as ferritin particles, indicating the presence of antigen-antibody complexes, were seen within the mucous droplets of the mucous cells. The CVA production is apparently connected with vaginal mucus formation. The CVA distribution in the adult vaginal epithelium is discussed in relation to the distribution demonstrated earlier in the cervicovaginal epithelium of neonatal mice.This investigation was supported by grants from the Norwegian Cancer Society (Landsforeningen mot Kreft) and the Norwegian Research Council. 相似文献
