Upstream stimulatory factors (USF) 1 and 2 are members of the basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper transcription factor family. They are considered to play critical roles in cell-cycle regulation and chromatin remodeling. Their gene expression patterns are considered ubiquitous but have not been fully investigated in terms of embryogenesis. We examined the expression of the genes encoding USF1 and USF2 in Xenopus laevis during embryonic development. Expression of both genes was first detected as maternal transcripts and was observed continuously throughout development. However, in situ hybridization analysis revealed that the two genes were expressed differentially. In the late blastula, both genes were expressed in the blastocoel roof and marginal zone. At the gastrula stage, USF2 was strongly expressed in the sensorial layer of the ectoderm and in the mesoderm, whereas USF1 expression was hardly detectable. From the neurula stage onward, expression of both genes was markedly enhanced in the neural tissues, neural crest, eye and otic vesicle. However, spatial expression of the genes within the neural tube differed in that the strongest USF1 signals were observed in the lateral region of the basal plate and the strongest USF2 ones in the dorsal region of the neural tube. Expression of the two genes occurred in different mesoderm derivatives at the tailbud stage (USF1, somite; USF2, pronephros and lateral plate mesoderm of the tail region). USF1 was expressed in the notochord of the early neurula, but was lost at the stage.

上游刺激因子 USF1 和 USF2 在非洲爪蟾胚胎发育过程中差异表达。

上游刺激因子 (USF) 1 和 2 是基本螺旋-环-螺旋亮氨酸拉链转录因子家族的成员。它们被认为在细胞周期调节和染色质重塑中起关键作用。它们的基因表达模式被认为是普遍存在的,但尚未在胚胎发生方面得到充分研究。我们检查了胚胎发育过程中爪蟾中 USF1 和 USF2 编码基因的表达。这两个基因的表达首先被检测为母体转录本,并在整个发育过程中不断观察。然而,原位杂交分析显示这两个基因的表达存在差异。在晚期囊胚中,这两个基因都在囊胚腔顶和边缘区表达。在原肠胚阶段,USF2 在外胚层和中胚层的感觉层中强烈表达,而 USF1 表达几乎检测不到。从神经元阶段开始,这两种基因在神经组织、神经嵴、眼睛和耳泡中的表达都显着增强。然而,神经管内基因的空间表达不同,因为在基底板的外侧区域观察到最强的 USF1 信号,在神经管的背侧区域观察到最强的 USF2 信号。这两个基因的表达发生在尾芽阶段的不同中胚层衍生物中(USF1,体节;USF2,尾部区域的前肾和侧板中胚层)。USF1 在早期神经元的脊索中表达,但在该阶段丢失。这两种基因在神经组织、神经嵴、眼睛和耳泡中的表达均显着增强。然而,神经管内基因的空间表达不同,因为在基底板的外侧区域观察到最强的 USF1 信号,在神经管的背侧区域观察到最强的 USF2 信号。这两个基因的表达发生在尾芽阶段的不同中胚层衍生物中(USF1,体节;USF2,尾部区域的前肾和侧板中胚层)。USF1 在早期神经元的脊索中表达,但在该阶段丢失。这两种基因在神经组织、神经嵴、眼睛和耳泡中的表达均显着增强。然而,神经管内基因的空间表达不同,因为在基底板的外侧区域观察到最强的 USF1 信号,在神经管的背侧区域观察到最强的 USF2 信号。这两个基因的表达发生在尾芽阶段的不同中胚层衍生物中(USF1,体节;USF2,尾部区域的前肾和侧板中胚层)。USF1 在早期神经元的脊索中表达,但在该阶段丢失。神经管内基因的空间表达不同,因为在基底板的外侧区域观察到最强的 USF1 信号,在神经管的背侧区域观察到最强的 USF2 信号。这两个基因的表达发生在尾芽阶段的不同中胚层衍生物中(USF1,体节;USF2,尾部区域的前肾和侧板中胚层)。USF1 在早期神经元的脊索中表达,但在该阶段丢失。神经管内基因的空间表达不同,因为在基底板的外侧区域观察到最强的 USF1 信号,在神经管的背侧区域观察到最强的 USF2 信号。这两个基因的表达发生在尾芽阶段的不同中胚层衍生物中(USF1,体节;USF2,尾部区域的前肾和侧板中胚层)。USF1 在早期神经元的脊索中表达,但在该阶段丢失。
