Further investigation, says Resar, showed that these unusual properties arise from the ability of HMGA1 to turn on several genes involved in the Wnt pathway, a network of proteins necessary for embryonic development and stem cell activity.
They were interested in one of the cell's key signaling pathways, the MAPK pathway, which helps control cell growth, embryonic development, and the maturation of oocytes into eggs.
The ERK pathway plays a critical role in embryonic development and tissue repair because it instructs cells to multiply and start dividing, but when over activated cancer growth occurs.
These experimental systems allow scientists to dissect key molecular pathways that specify cell fate decisions in embryonic development,» said team leader Lin He, a UC Berkeley associate professor of molecular and cell biology.
As described in the journal Genes & Development, the researchers identified a new pathway controlling heterochromatin organisation in mouse embryonic stem cells.
This migration may happen because the repair pathways initiated by the damaged cells are similar to pathways triggered during embryonic development, where stem cells are key, explains ReNeuron co-founder and chief scientific officer John Sinden.
Caspary's lab studies the Hedgehog pathway in early embryonic development.
The Secretory Pathway Calcium ATPase PMR - 1 / SPCA1 Has Essential Roles in Cell Migration during Caenorhabditis elegans Embryonic Development.
This signaling pathway was found to be important in embryonic bone development (Wan et al., 2013), and in osteoblasts (bone cells) regulation (Glass et al., 2005; Harada & Rodan, 2003).
The researchers also identified new links between aggressive meningioma proliferation and activation of an intercellular signaling pathway called Wnt — which typically plays a role during embryonic development and tissue formation.
La Jolla, CA — Scientists at the Salk Institute have discovered a novel genetic pathway that ensures body organs develop correctly and in the right position during embryonic development.
Now researchers at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies have identified an essential cellular pathway in zebrafish that paves the way for limb regeneration by unlocking gene expression patterns last seen during embryonic development.
