Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study was aimed at understanding molecular mechanisms underlying the meshwork-like migration of neural progenitors of the enteric nervous system (ENS). We used RET9-Y1015 mice whose ENS progenitors display impaired meshwork-like migration. Because these ENS progenitors are defective in PLCgamma signaling downstream of RET tyrosine kinase, we sought to identify the signaling molecules/pathways by performing phospho-proteomics analyses of ENS progenitors. With this method, we have discovered that PLCgamma signaling cascade and RET isoform-specific cooperates to achieve meshwork-like migration.
