Research Abstract

In this study, we have been trying to clarify the mechanisms regulating "GSC Niche System" in Drosophila. We found that 1) heparan sulphate proteoglycans (HSPG) are deeply involved in GSC maintenance by restricting the function of growth factors in a narrow region (Niche field) around "Niche cells", 2) Notch, Sevenless and Egfr signaling are required for proper formation of "Niche cells" in the anterior region of male embryonic gonads, and that 3) maternal Ovo and Sxl are required for germline-specific gene expression and sex determination of primordial germ cells, respectively.
