Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The present research has attempted to elucidate development of the blood islands and myeloid cells in Xenopus embryo. First, we found a physiological role of Nkx2.5 and GATA4, which are the transcription factors for heart specification, are involved in the myeloid cell differentiation in the anterior blood islands. Second, we showed the distribution of Rdd (repeated D domain-like) protein in the developing embryo. Third, we discovered a novel population of myeloid cells in the mesonephric rudiment at an early tadpole stage.
