To quantitatively study bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling dynamics in the mouse neural tube, we developed an embryonic stem cell differentiation system tailored for growing tissues. Differentiating cells form striking self-organized patterns of dorsal neural tube cell types driven by sequential phases of BMP signaling that are observed both in vitro and in vivo. Data-driven biophysical modeling showed that these dynamics result from coupling fast negative feedback with slow positive regulation of signaling by the specification of an endogenous BMP source. Thus, in contrast to relays that propagate morphogen signaling in space, we identify a BMP signaling relay that operates in time. This mechanism allows for a rapid initial concentration-sensitive response that is robustly terminated, thereby regulating balanced sequential cell type generation. Our study provides an experimental and theoretical framework to understand how signaling dynamics are exploited in developing tissues."}]},{"ddc":["570"],"department":[{"_id":"AnKi"},{"_id":"NanoFab"}],"acknowledged_ssus":[{"_id":"NanoFab"}],"date_published":"2024-12-20T00:00:00Z","file":[{"relation":"main_file","file_size":4989169,"access_level":"open_access","date_updated":"2024-12-03T10:53:23Z","content_type":"application/pdf","file_id":"18610","checksum":"0c61a6f9978608a103865905e06f4581","date_created":"2024-12-03T10:53:23Z","success":1,"creator":"dernst","file_name":"2024_STARProtoc_Lehr.pdf"}],"date_created":"2024-12-01T23:01:53Z","article_processing_charge":"Yes","user_id":"317138e5-6ab7-11ef-aa6d-ffef3953e345","external_id":{"pmid":["39602310"]},"title":"Protocol for fabricating elastomeric stencils for patterned stem cell differentiation","acknowledgement":"We thank the nanofabrication facility at ISTA for technical assistance.

However, the mechanism by which they are quantitatively controlled is unknown. We show that the amount of mature miR-9, a key regulator of neuronal development, increases during zebrafish neurogenesis in a sharp stepwise manner. We characterize the spatiotemporal profile of seven distinct microRNA primary transcripts (pri-mir)-9s that produce the same mature miR-9 and show that they are sequentially expressed during hindbrain neurogenesis. Expression of late-onset pri-mir-9-1 is added on to, rather than replacing, the expression of early onset pri-mir-9-4 and -9-5 in single cells. CRISPR/Cas9 mutation of the late-onset pri-mir-9-1 prevents the developmental increase of mature miR-9, reduces late neuronal differentiation and fails to downregulate Her6 at late stages. Mathematical modelling shows that an adaptive network containing Her6 is insensitive to linear increases in miR-9 but responds to stepwise increases of miR-9. We suggest that a sharp stepwise increase of mature miR-9 is created by sequential and additive temporal activation of distinct loci. This may be a strategy to overcome adaptation and facilitate a transition of Her6 to a new dynamic regime or steady state.","lang":"eng"}],"file_date_updated":"2023-01-30T08:35:44Z","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1242/dev.200474","publication_status":"published","day":"01","keyword":["Developmental Biology","Molecular Biology"],"issue":"19","type":"journal_article","volume":149,"publication":"Development","citation":{"apa":"Soto, X., Burton, J., Manning, C.

The maternal hb mRNA acts as a paradigm for translational regulation due to its repression in the posterior of the embryo. However, little is known about the translatability of zygotically transcribed hb mRNAs. Here, we adapt the SunTag system, developed for imaging translation at single-mRNA resolution in tissue culture cells, to the Drosophila embryo to study the translation dynamics of zygotic hb mRNAs. Using single-molecule imaging in fixed and live embryos, we provide evidence for translational repression of zygotic SunTag-hb mRNAs. Whereas the proportion of SunTag-hb mRNAs translated is initially uniform, translation declines from the anterior over time until it becomes restricted to a posterior band in the expression domain. We discuss how regulated hb mRNA translation may help establish the sharp Hb expression boundary, which is a model for precision and noise during developmental patterning. Overall, our data show how use of the SunTag method on fixed and live embryos is a powerful combination for elucidating spatiotemporal regulation of mRNA translation in Drosophila.","lang":"eng"}],"fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1242/dev.196121","file_date_updated":"2024-04-03T13:58:51Z","article_number":"dev196121.","citation":{"ieee":"D.
