A role for Sonic hedgehog in axon-to-astrocyte signalling in the rodent optic nerve
Abstract
Retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axons have been shown to stimulate the proliferation of astrocytes in the developing rodent optic nerve, but the signals that mediate this effect have not been identified. The following findings suggest that Sonic hedgehog (Shh) is one of the signals. (1) RGCs express both Shh mRNA and protein, whereas the optic nerve contains the protein but not the mRNA. (2) Astrocytes and their precursors in the developing optic nerve express the Hedgehog (Hh) receptor gene Patched (Ptc), suggesting that they are being signalled by an Hh protein. (3) Ptc expression in the nerve is greatly decreased by either nerve transection or by treatment with neutralizing anti-Shh antibodies, suggesting that it depends on axon-derived Shh. (4) Astrocyte proliferation in the developing nerve is reduced by treatment with anti-Shh antibodies, suggesting that Shh normally helps stimulate this proliferation.

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.
