Título: | Appropriate Bmp7 levels are required for the differentiation of midline guidepost cells involved in corpus callosum formation |
Autor: | Sánchez-Camacho, Cristina CSIC ORCID; Ortega, Juan Alberto; Ocaña, Inmaculada CSIC; Alcántara, Soledad; Bovolenta, Paola CSIC ORCID | Fecha de publicación: | 2011 | Editor: | John Wiley & Sons | Citación: | Developmental Neurobiology 71: 337- 350 (2011) | Resumen: | Guidepost cells are essential structures for the establishment of major axonal tracts. How these structures are specified and acquire their axon guidance properties is still poorly understood. Here, we show that in mouse embryos appropriate levels of Bone Morphogenetic Protein 7 (Bmp7), a member of the TGF-β superfamily of secreted proteins, are required for the correct development of the glial wedge, the indusium griseum, and the subcallosal sling, three groups of cells that act as guidepost cells for growing callosal axons. Bmp7 is expressed in the region occupied by these structures and its genetic inactivation in mouse embryos caused a marked reduction and disorganization of these cell populations. On the contrary, infusion of recombinant Bmp7 in the developing forebrain induced their premature differentiation. In both cases, changes were associated with the disruption of callosal axon growth and, in most animals fibers did not cross the midline forming typical Probst bundles. Addition of Bmp7 to cortical explants did not modify the extent of their outgrowth nor their directionality, when explants were exposed to a focalized source of the protein. Together, these results indicate that Bmp7 is indirectly required for corpus callosum formation by controlling the timely differentiation of its guidepost cells. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/62983 | DOI: | 10.1002/dneu.20865 | Identificadores: | doi: 10.1002/dneu.20865 issn: 1932-8451 |
