DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The long-term goal of the proposed research is to understand the mechanisms that mediate neuronal migration in mammals. In the vertebrate embryo, neurons frequently migrate long distances to reach their final positions, where they assemble into complex networks that control physiology and behavior. Many human neurological disorders result when neurons either migrate aberrantly or fail to migrate. Therefore, it is essential to understand the mechanisms mediating migration of specific neuronal types, so that the causes of and potential remedies for human brain disorders can eventually be identified. Our studies may also impact efforts to induce stem cell-derived neurons to migrate accurately into brain regions damaged by injury or disease. The proposed work employs the migration of facial branchiomotor neurons (FBMNs) in the zebrafish and mouse hindbrain as a model for neuronal migrations in mammals. Previous work demonstrated that a transmembrane protein Strabismus (Stbm) was necessary for FBMN migration in zebrafish. Stbm has been well studied for its role as a component of the wingless/Wnt signaling pathway in mediating polarized cellular behaviors and patterning events in an epithelial cell layer (planar cell polarity/PCP) in flies and vertebrates. However, we have accumulated compelling preliminary evidence that, during FBMN migration, Stbm may function independently of other components of the Wnt/PCP signaling pathway. We therefore hypothesize that Stbm and Prickle1a (Pk1a), a cytoplasmic protein that potentially binds Stbm, use novel molecular and cellular mechanisms to regulate FBMN migration. We propose several approaches to uncover these mechanisms. First, the roles of various domains within Stbm, and of three genes that interact with stbm, during FBMN migration in zebrafish will be studied using gain- and loss-of-function approaches. Next, the identity of the cell type(s) in which Stbm and Pk1a functions are necessary for FBMN migration will be determined using loss-of-function and cell transplantation methods. Finally, the roles of Stbm and other PCP components in FBMN migration in mouse will be evaluated through detailed phenotypic analyses of mutant mice. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The proposed studies of neuronal migration have two-fold significance. 1) Many human neurological disorders result from defective neuronal migration. Therefore, it is essential to understand the underlying mechanisms so that the causes of and potential remedies for these diseases can be identified. 2) An ongoing challenge in stem cell research is to understand how stem cell-derived neurons can be induced to migrate accurately into brain regions damaged by injury or disease. Our studies can therefore impact efforts to increase the efficacy of stem cell therapies to treat neuronal injury and disease.

描述（由申请人提供）：拟议研究的长期目标是了解哺乳动物中介导神经元迁移的机制。在脊椎动物胚胎中，神经元经常迁移很长的距离到达它们的最终位置，在那里它们组装成控制生理和行为的复杂网络。当神经元异常迁移或迁移失败时，会导致许多人类神经系统疾病。因此，了解特定神经元类型迁移的介导机制至关重要，以便最终确定人类大脑疾病的原因和潜在补救措施。我们的研究也可能影响诱导干细胞衍生的神经元准确迁移到因损伤或疾病而受损的大脑区域的努力。拟议的工作采用了迁移的面鳃神经元（FBMNs）在斑马鱼和小鼠后脑神经元迁移在哺乳动物中的模型。以前的工作表明，跨膜蛋白斜视（Stbm）是必要的FBMN迁移在斑马鱼。Stbm作为无翅/Wnt信号通路的一个组成部分，在果蝇和脊椎动物的上皮细胞层中介导极化细胞行为和模式化事件（平面细胞极性/PCP），其作用已得到充分研究。然而，我们已经积累了令人信服的初步证据表明，在FBMN迁移，Stbm可能独立于Wnt/PCP信号通路的其他组件的功能。因此，我们假设Stbm和Prickle 1a（Pk 1a），一种可能结合Stbm的细胞质蛋白，使用新的分子和细胞机制来调节FBMN迁移。我们提出了几种方法来揭示这些机制。首先，Stbm内的各个领域的作用，并与stbm相互作用的三个基因，在FBMN迁移在斑马鱼将使用增益和损失的功能的方法进行研究。接下来，将使用功能丧失和细胞移植方法确定FBMN迁移所需的Stbm和Pk 1a功能的细胞类型的身份。最后，Stbm和其他PCP成分在小鼠FBMN迁移中的作用将通过突变小鼠的详细表型分析进行评估。 公共卫生相关性：拟议的神经元迁移研究具有双重意义。1)许多人类神经系统疾病是由有缺陷的神经元迁移引起的。因此，必须了解这些疾病的潜在机制，以便确定这些疾病的原因和潜在的补救措施。2)干细胞研究的一个持续挑战是了解干细胞衍生的神经元如何被诱导准确地迁移到因损伤或疾病而受损的大脑区域。因此，我们的研究可以影响提高干细胞疗法治疗神经元损伤和疾病的疗效的努力。
