Título: | Analysis of mouse kreisler mutants reveals new roles of hindbrain-derived signals in the establishment of the otic neurogenic domain |
Autor: | Vázquez-Echeverría, Citlali; Domínguez-Frutos, Elena CSIC; Schimmang, Thomas CSIC ORCID | Fecha de publicación: | 2008 | Editor: | Elsevier | Citación: | Developmental Biology 322(1): 167-178 (2008) | Resumen: | The inner ear, the sensory organ responsible for hearing and balance, contains specialized sensory and non-sensory epithelia arranged in a highly complex three-dimensional structure. To achieve this complexity, a tight coordination between morphogenesis and cell fate specification is essential during otic development. Tissues surrounding the otic primordium, and more particularly the adjacent segmented hindbrain, have been implicated in specifying structures along the anteroposterior and dorsoventral axes of the inner ear. In this work we have first characterized the generation and axial specification of the otic neurogenic domain, and second, we have investigated the effects of the mutation of kreisler/MafB - a gene transiently expressed in rhombomeres 5 and 6 of the developing hindbrain - in early otic patterning and cell specification. We show that kr/kr embryos display an expansion of the otic neurogenic domain, due to defects in otic patterning. Although many reports have pointed to the role of FGF3 in otic regionalisation, we provide evidence that FGF3 is not sufficient to govern this process. Neither Krox20 nor Fgf3 mutant embryos, characterized by a downregulation or absence of Fgf3 in r5 and r6, display ectopic neuroblasts in the otic primordium. However, Fgf3-/-Fgf10-/- double mutants show a phenotype very similar to kr/kr embryos: they present ectopic neuroblasts along the AP and DV otic axes. Finally, partial rescue of the kr/kr phenotype is obtained when Fgf3 or Fgf10 are ectopically expressed in the hindbrain of kr/kr embryos. These results highlight the importance of hindbrain-derived signals in the regulation of otic neurogenesis. © 2008 Elsevier Inc.
