TGF β 1 inhibits proliferation and has a chemotropic effect on mouse primordial germ cells in culture

Godin, Isabelle, Wylie, C. C.·1991·Development

Abstract

Primordial germ cells are the stem cells that provide the functional gametes of adult animals. In many animal groups they are set aside at the earliest stages of development, and migrate from their sites of first appearance to the sites where the gonad will form, the genital ridges. During this migration they proliferate. In the mouse embryo their numbers increase from less than one hundred to approximately four thousand during the period of their migration. In a previous paper we showed that both the proliferation and the direction of migration of mouse PGCs in culture were influenced by soluble factors released from their target tissue, the genital ridges. Studies on other stem cell populations have shown that complex combinations of growth factors control their proliferation, migration and differentiation. In this paper, we show that TGFβ1 inhibits proliferation of PGCs taken from 8.5 day old embryos and cultured on embryonic fibroblast feeder layers. We also show that the previously reported chemotropic effect of genital ridges in this culture system is mediated by TGFβ1, or a closely related molecule, released from the genital ridges.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
