Outline of Final Research Achievements

Secretory signal proteins, including Wnt, play roles in the formation of tissues and organs, but their spatial dynamics has yet been poorly understood. We found previously that secreted Wnt does not form a global concentration gradient but localizes on the cell membrane. In this study, by using the early development of Xenopus as a model system, we examined the relationship between Wnt11 and factors regulating the planar cell polarity (PCP factors). Our results suggest that Wnt is polarized by the interaction with PCP factors and that the polarized Wnt further induces the polarization of PCP factors. Such mutual induction appears to spread in a relay manner and polarizes the entire tissue.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

これまで、Wnt蛋白質は細胞間を自由拡散し組織の広い範囲に渡る「グローバルな濃度勾配」を形成すると考えられてきたが、本研究の結果はWntが極性を持って上皮シート上に分布することを示しており、これまで見過ごされてきたWnt蛋白質の「ローカルな局在化」の重要性を示唆している。さらに、このようなローカルな局在化は、Wntと PCP因子との相互作用によるものであり、それがさらにPCP因子の極性化を誘導することを本研究の結果は強く示唆している。このような相互誘導がリレー式に広がることにより組織全体に極性形成が起きるというモデルは、平面内細胞極性に形成機構に対して新たな考え方を提唱するものである。
