Blood vessels are part of the stem cell niche in the developing cerebral cortex, but their in vivo role in controlling the expansion and differentiation of neural stem cells (NSCs) in development has not been studied. Here, we report that relief of hypoxia in the developing cerebral cortex by ingrowth of blood vessels temporo‐spatially coincided with NSC differentiation. Selective perturbation of brain angiogenesis in vessel‐specific Gpr124 null embryos, which prevented the relief from hypoxia, increased NSC expansion at the expense of differentiation. Conversely, exposure to increased oxygen levels rescued NSC differentiation in Gpr124 null embryos and increased it further in WT embryos, suggesting that niche blood vessels regulate NSC differentiation at least in part by providing oxygen. Consistent herewith, hypoxia‐inducible factor (HIF)‐1α levels controlled the switch of NSC expansion to differentiation. Finally, we provide evidence that high glycolytic activity of NSCs is required to prevent their precocious differentiation in vivo. Thus, blood vessel function is required for efficient NSC differentiation in the developing cerebral cortex by providing oxygen and possibly regulating NSC metabolism. 相似文献

Expression of APG-2 protein, a member of the heat shock protein 110 family, in developing rat brain 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

APG-2 protein is a member of the heat shock protein 110 family, and it is thought to play an important role in the maintenance of neuronal functions under physiological and stress conditions. However, neither the tissue-distribution of APG-2 protein nor developmental change of its expression has been studied at the protein level. Therefore, we generated an antiserum against APG-2 protein and studied expression of this protein in rat brain and other tissues by use of the Western blot method. The results showed a high expression of APG-2 protein in various regions of the central nervous system (cerebral cortex, hippocampus, striatum, midbrain, hypothalamus, cerebellum, medulla pons, and spinal cord) throughout the entire postnatal stage. Similarly, a high level of APG-2 protein was detected in the whole brain of rat embryos and in adult rat tissues such as liver, lung, spleen, and kidney. In contrast, its expression in heart was high at postnatal days 1 and 3, but thereafter drastically decreased to a low level. Furthermore, APG-2 protein was detected in neuronal primary cultures prepared from rat cerebral cortex, and its level did not change notably during neuronal differentiation. These results show that APG-2 protein is constitutively expressed in various tissues and also in neuronal cells throughout the entire embryonic and postnatal period. suggesting that it might play an important role in these tissues under non-stress conditions. 相似文献

G protein-coupled receptor 3 (Gpr3) is a member of G protein-coupled receptor rhodopsin family, which is present throughout the follicle within the ovary and functions as a critical factor for the maintenance of meiotic prophase arrest in oocytes by a Gs protein-mediated pathway. In the current paper, attempts were made to clone and characterize a gene encoding Gpr3 from pigs and investigate its expression pattern in tissues and the whole cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) in vitro maturation (IVM). Rapid amplification of cDNA ends and RT-PCR gave rise to the full sequence of Gpr3 gene with its length being 2101?bp nucleotides, including an open reading frame of 993?bp, encoding a 331 amino acid polypeptide with the molecular weight of 35.2?kDa. Homology search and sequence multi-alignment demonstrated that the putative porcine Gpr3 protein sequence shared a high identity with other animal Gpr3 orthologs, including several highly conservative motifs and amino acids. Real-time PCR analysis showed that the Gpr3 gene was expressed in tissues of cerebrum, cerebellum, hypothalamus, pituitary, ovary, oviduct, uterus, heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, muscle, fat, testis, thymus and granulosa cell, oocyte and COCs at different expression levels. The expression levels of this gene in oocyte, uterus, liver, fat, pituitary and brain were higher than that in other tissues. Interestingly, the mRNA and protein levels of Gpr3 in the whole COCs were down-regulated, and its mRNA expression levels were significantly and negatively correlated with the degrees of cumulus expansion (r?=?-0.937, P?0.01) during IVM, suggesting its important roles in cumulus expansion and oocyte maturation. 相似文献

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a class of integral membrane proteins mediating physiological functions fundamental for survival, including energy homeostasis. A few years ago, an amino acid sequence of a novel GPCR gene was identified and named GPR178. In this study, we provide new insights regarding the biological significance of Gpr178 protein, investigating its evolutionary history and tissue distribution as well as examining the relationship between its expression level and feeding status. Our phylogenetic analysis indicated that GPR178 is highly conserved among all animal species investigated, and that GPR178 is not a member of a protein family. Real-time PCR and in situ hybridization revealed wide expression of Gpr178 mRNA in both the brain and periphery, with high expression density in the hypothalamus and brainstem, areas involved in the regulation of food intake. Hence, changes in receptor expression were assessed following several feeding paradigms including starvation and overfeeding. Short-term starvation (12–48h) or food restriction resulted in upregulation of Gpr178 mRNA expression in the brainstem, hypothalamus and prefrontal cortex. Conversely, short-term (48h) exposure to sucrose or Intralipid solutions downregulated Gpr178 mRNA in the brainstem; long-term exposure (10 days) to a palatable high-fat and high-sugar diet resulted in a downregulation of Gpr178 in the amygdala but not in the hypothalamus. Our results indicate that hypothalamic Gpr178 gene expression is altered during acute exposure to starvation or acute exposure to palatable food. Changes in gene expression following palatable diet consumption suggest a possible involvement of Gpr178 in the complex mechanisms of feeding reward. 相似文献

In an attempt to isolate genes involved in the brain development using ordered differential display PCR, we cloned rgpr85 which encodes rat G-protein-coupled receptor with high degree of identity to the amine-like neurotransmitter receptors. This gene was found to be localized at rat chromosome 4q21. In situ hybridization demonstrated that rgpr85 was predominantly expressed in the developing brain and spinal cord. Hybridization signal was especially abundant within the embryonic cortical plates where postmitotic cortical neurons are localized. In the cerebral cortex, the expression of rgpr85 was gradually decreased postnatally and became undetectable by P18. However, weak but significant expression of rgpr85 was maintained in the adult hippocampal formation, olfactory bulb, and cerebellum. Interestingly, rgpr85 expression was transiently induced in the adult hippocampal formation, piriform cortex, and amygdaloid complex by kainic acid (KA) treatment. Thus, dynamic regulation of rgpr85 expression suggests an importance of rgpr85-mediated signaling in the development of cerebral cortex and in the KA-induced responses in the adult brain. 相似文献

An important subgroup of adhesion molecules is the superfamily of cadherins, which takes part in cell recognition and differentiation during development. To our knowledge only one study describing N-cadherin expression in developing human brain has been performed so far. Our aim is to identify N-cadherin expression to establish a relationship between its expression and function in human cerebral cortex during prenatal development. In the present study, localization and intensity of N-cadherin was investigated in developing cerebral cortex. Fetuses from spontaneous abortions (n=13) were obtained from first, second, and third trimesters. Western blot analysis revealed three bands and the third trimester samples showed the strongest bands for N-cadherin. Cell processes, axon bundles, and some of the developing neurons revealed immunoreactivity for N-cadherin throughout pregnancy. The immunoreactivity increased in the developing neocortex and expanded from the ventricular layer toward the marginal zone as development progressed. Moreover, the immunoreactivity was strong in vascular endothelium during all three trimesters. We conclude that N-cadherin is dynamically related to the organization of cerebral cortex layers during prenatal development. The dynamic expression pattern implicates N-cadherin as a potential regulator of cell migration, axon extension and fasciculation, the establishment of synaptic contacts, and neurovascular angiogenesis in the developing human cerebral cortex. 相似文献

The Rhodopsin family of G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) includes the phylogenetic α-group consisting of about 100 human members. The α-group is the only group of GPCRs that has many receptors for biogenic amines which are major drug targets. Several members of this group are orphan receptors and their functions are elusive. In this study we present a detailed phylogenetic and anatomical characterization of the Gpr153 receptor and also attempt to study its functional role. We identified the homologue of Gpr153 in the elephant shark genome and phylogenetic and synteny analyses revealed that Gpr162 and Gpr153 share a common ancestor that split most likely through a duplication event before the divergence of the tetrapods and the teleost lineage. A quantitative real-time PCR study reveals widespread expression of Gpr153 in the central nervous system and all the peripheral tissues investigated. Detailed in?situ hybridization on mouse brain showed specifically high expression in the thalamus, cerebellum and the arcuate nucleus. The antisense oligodeoxynucleotide knockdown of Gpr153 caused a slight reduction in food intake and the elevated plus maze test showed significant reduction in the percentage of time spent in the centre square, which points towards a probable role in decision making. This report provides the first detailed characterization of the evolution, expression and primary functional properties of the Gpr153 gene. 相似文献

The deep layers of the mammalian cerebral cortex contain pyramidal neurons that project predominantly to subcortical targets. To understand the mechanisms that determine the identity of deeper layer neurons, a PCR based subtractive hybridisation was performed to isolate genes that are specifically expressed during the specification of these neurons. One of the genes we isolated was the rat homologue of the mouse Slap-1. SLAP-1 is an adaptor protein containing SH2-SH3 domains and it participates in the signalling of Receptor Tyrosine Kinases. In situ hybridisation studies have shown that Slap-1 is not substantially expressed before E17.At later stages, it is specifically and selectively expressed by deeper layer neurons and by neurons of layers II/III in the developing cortex. The specific timing and location of its expression, suggests that this gene may play a role in the differentiation of these neurons. 相似文献

SPARC/Osteonectin mRNA Is Induced in Blood Vessels Following Injury to the Adult Rat Cerebral Cortex
Recently we described the pattern of expression of the anti-adhesive glycoprotein SPARC/osteonectin in the developing and adult brain. SPARC mRNA was present in developing blood vessels during neurogenesis, but was not detected in the mature vasculature. We have now examined the effect of a lesion to the adult rat cerebral cortex on the expression of SPARC by in situ hybridization. SPARC mRNA was increased in the zone proximal to the wound at 3 to 10 days after cortical brain injury. During this period, SPARC was induced in mature blood vessels close to the lesion site and in blood vessels which develop following injury. These results suggest a role for SPARC in the process of angiogenesis following injury to the adult cerebral cortex. 相似文献
