研究抽象

 

Our lab is interested in elucidating cellular and molecular mechanisms that regulate brain development using Drosophila 作为一个模式生物. Specifically, 我们正在进行以下两项研究,利用各种强大的基因, genomic, 分子生物学, 生化和共聚焦成像方法.

1) Genetic mechanisms that control the generation of brain complexity and brain tumor formation. The increased brain complexity is believed to be responsible for higher intellectual ability in humans. Generating brain complexity requires the maintenance of neural stem cells (NSCs) and the production of intermediate neural progenitor cells (INPs), transient amplification of which is critical for boosting the number of neurons and glia generated from NSCs. However, aberrant proliferation or defects in differentiation of NSCs and INPs can lead to brain tumor formation. Drosophila II型神经母细胞(NBs) Drosophila NSCs)非常类似于哺乳动物的NSCs. They can not only maintain their own population through self-renewal but also produce large amount of neurons by generating transient amplifying INPs. Furthermore, type II NB lineages are extremely susceptible to tumorigenesis because INPs are genetically unstable and prone to dedifferentiation (Fig.1). Thus, type II NB lineages provide an excellent model for studying the generation of brain complexity and the formation of brain tumors. The major goal of this line of research is to dissect genetic mechanisms that control the specification/self-renewal of type II NBs and differentiation/dedifferentiation of INPs in the developing Drosophila 大脑的转录和转录后水平.

2) Cellular and molecular mechanisms that control neural circuit formation at the subcellular level in the Drosophila central brain. One of the fundamental questions in developmental neurobiology is how neurons form subcellular specific synaptic contacts. Subcellular-specificity of synaptic connections has a profound impact on neuronal activity and behavior output. In the Drosophila 学习记忆中心, the mushroom body, mushroom body output neurons (MBONs) target their dendrites to specific subcellular locations (or called compartments) of the mushroom body axons to form synaptic contacts. A total of 34 MBONs of 21 types elaborate their dendrites in 16 compartments that together tile the five MB axonal lobes without overlap (Fig. 2). We use the mushroom body output neurons as a novel model system to investigate cellular and molecular mechanisms that govern the compartment-specific targeting and tiling of dendrites in the central brain of Drosophila.

(C) Two MBONs labeled in green and red target their dendrites to the γ5 and γ4 compartments without overlapping with each other in the mushroom body axonal lobes (in blue). (D) MBON dendrites labeled with alternative fluorescent colors tile four neighboring compartments (γ2 through γ5) of the mushroom body γ lobe.
