DescriptionStructure and signaling mechanisms of the C. elegans GSC niche..jpg |
English: (A). The Distal tip cell (DTC, green) functions as a niche to maintain GSCs (red, green shade representing the niche influence), allowing germ cells (pink) outside the influence of the niche to differentiate. (B). Wnt signaling controls the niche formation, while DTC-expressing LAG-2/Delta can activate Notch signaling, maintain functions of FBF1 and FBF2 and repress functions of differentiation-promoting GLD genes to control GSC self-renewal. |
