项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY ABSTRACT The goal of this project is to define the molecular mechanisms governing neural crest development. Neural crest cells (NCC) are a highly migratory and multipotent cell population that gives rise to an incredible diversity of differentiated cell types. During mammalian development, NCCs are induced from pluripotent ectoderm at the lateral margins of the developing neural plate. The molecular mechanisms regulating mammalian neural crest induction are poorly understood. In this project, we focus on a highly expressed microRNA family in pluripotency, miR-302, which plays a critical role during mammalian neural crest induction. Using genetic loss- of-function mouse and human models, we find that miR-302 is required to prevent precocious neural crest specification. Additionally, we present data suggesting that miR-302 regulates the timing of neural crest development by targeting and repressing several novel factors. This project will provide insight into the earliest stages of mammalian neural crest development and shed light on the developmental relationship between ectodermal pluripotency and neural crest multipotency.

项目摘要摘要该项目的目的是定义有关神经rest发育的分子机制。神经rest细胞（NCC）是一种高度迁移和多能细胞种群，引起了令人难以置信的多样性分化的细胞类型。在哺乳动物发育过程中，NCC是由多能外胚层诱导的发育中的神经板的侧缘。调节哺乳动物神经rest的分子机制诱导知之甚少。在这个项目中，我们专注于一个高度表达的microRNA家族多能性miR-302，在哺乳动物神经rest诱导中起关键作用。使用遗传损失 - 功能小鼠和人类模型，我们发现需要miR-302来防止早熟的神经rest 规格。此外，我们提供的数据表明miR-302调节神经rest的时间通过靶向和压制几个新因素来开发。该项目将提供最早的见解哺乳动物神经波峰发展的阶段，并阐明了外皮多能和神经rest多能力。
