Résumé :
The mammalian middle ear is composed of three bony ossicles, the malleus, incus, and stapes that function to conduct sound from the external to the inner ear. Normal development of middle ear structures is integral for transduction of sound, defects resulting in conductive deafness. Mice are reliant on both embryonic and postnatal developmental events to acquire hearing, and Eya1 mutant mice present with middle ear defects during both these developmental periods. Therefore, the aim of this project was to investigate the role of Eya1 in middle ear development and disease. Eya1 mutant mice on se

Complementary DNA (cDNA) clones representing approximately 5800 nucleotides of potato leafroll virus (PLRV) genomic RNA were generated, restriction-mapped, and partially sequenced. Within one of the cDNA clones an open reading frame (ORF) that could encode a 23 kDa protein was identified and further characterized. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequence with the coat protein amino acid sequence of the PAV strain of barley yellow dwarf luteovirus (BYDV-PAV) showed significant similarity.

Vascular anomalies include a range of mild to severe defects that can be life-threatening, debilitating, or disfiguring. Mutation in the RASA1 gene was found to underlie capillary malformation-arteriovenous malformation; however, there has been no mechanistic understanding of how the loss of function of RASA1 contributes to this disease. In human endothelial cells, presence of ephrin-B2 dominated over serum stimulation to reduce MAPK and PI3K-mTORC1 pathway activation, only when EphB4 and RASA1 were both present.

Résumé :
MicroRNA (miRNA) function is required for normal animal development, in particular in stem cell and precursor populations. I hypothesize that miRNAs are similarly required for stem cell maintenance and appropriate fate commitment in the brain. To test the requirement for global microRNA production, I depleted the microRNA biosynthetic enzyme DICER in the developing mouse brain. I found that DICER loss in embryonic neural progenitor cells leads to embryonic lethality with microcephaly. By histological analysis, I found defects in both neural progenitor cell maintenance and cell differentiation.

Wnts are secreted glycoproteins that activate signaling pathways important in development and disease. The canonical Wnt pathway activates nuclear localization of β-catenin, a multi-functional protein involved in cell adhesion and transcription. Other Wnt pathways, which appear to be independent of nuclear β-catenin, are collectively categorized as non-canonical pathways. Non-canonical Wnt pathways are involved in a variety of biological processes such as establishing planar cell polarity (PCP), stimulating intra-cellular calcium release and antagonizing canonical Wnt signaling.
