The Optimedin Gene Is a Downstream Target of Pax6 [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2005
The Optimedin gene, also known as Olfactomedin 3, encodes an olfactomedin domain-containing protein. There are two major splice variants of the Optimedin mRNA, Optimedin A and Optimedin B, transcribed from different promoters. The expression pattern of the Optimedin A variant in the eye and brain overlaps with that for Pax6, which encodes a protein ...

Effect of Pulsed Low-Level Lasers on Adult versus Neonatal Human Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells: An in-vitro Study

Journal of Ophthalmic & Vision Research
Purpose: To investigate the short-term effects of low-level lasers (LLLs; also known as low-power laser therapy) on the structure, genetic, and phenotype of cultured human retinal pigment epithelial (hRPE) cells from both adult and neonatal sources ...

Hemizygous Le-Cre transgenic mice have severe eye abnormalities on some genetic backgrounds in the absence of LoxP sites.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Eye phenotypes were investigated in Le-Cre(Tg/-); Pax6(fl/+) mice, which were expected to show tissue-specific reduction of Pax6 in surface ectoderm derivatives.

Nrsn1–Smarcc1 Coupling Regulates Neural Stem Cell Differentiation and Chronic‐phase Recovery After Ischemic Stroke

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In the post‐stroke brain, Foxa2 induces the transcriptional upregulation of Nrsn1 in NSCs. Nrsn1 functionally couples with Smarcc1, modulating its nuclear availability and protein abundance, thereby influencing Smarcc1‐associated regulatory programs linked to neuronal lineage commitment. Through this coupling, Nrsn1 promotes the differentiation of NSCs

Multi‐Layer Transcriptomic Comparison Across Human, Pig, and Mouse Informs Tissue‐ and Trait‐Specific Animal Model Selection

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We integrated RNA‐seq data from humans, pigs, and mice across 15 matched tissues based on 14 910 one‐to‐one orthologous genes. Cross‐species similarity was systematically evaluated across multiple regulatory layers, including global co‐expression conservation, co‐expression networks, tissue‐specific programs, and 3D genome architecture.

Pax6 Is a Key Component of Regulated Glucagon Secretion [PDF]

Endocrinology, 2012
The Pax6 transcription factor is crucial for pancreatic α-cells. Indeed, Pax6-deficient mouse models are characterized by markedly altered α-cell differentiation. Our objective was to investigate the role of Pax6 in glucagon secretion process. We used a Pax6-deficient model in rat primary enriched-α cells with specific small interfering RNA leading to ...

Pax6 directly down-regulates Pcsk1n expression thereby regulating PC1/3 dependent proinsulin processing. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Heterozygous paired box6 (Pax6) mutations lead to abnormal glucose metabolism in mice older than 6 months as well as in human beings. Our previous study found that Pax6 deficiency caused down-expression of prohormone convertase 1/3 (Pcsk1), resulting in ...

Developmentally Guided Differentiation of Ventral Midbrain Dopaminergic Cells Validated in Proteopathy‐Based Parkinson's Disease Models

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A developmentally guided protocol reproducibly specifies EN1‐positive ventral midbrain dopaminergic (vmDA) progenitors from human pluripotent stem cells and yields functional vmDA neurons. Optogenetic induction of α‐synuclein aggregation elicits selective degeneration of TH‐positive neurons in 2D cultures and 3D neurospheroids, while transplanted ...
