TGF(beta) Mediated Structural Remodeling Facilitates Optic Fissure Fusion And The Necessity Of BMP Antagonism In This Process

Max D. Knickmeyer, Juan Luis Mateo, Priska Eckert, Eleni Roussa, Belal Rahhal, Aimée Zúñiga, Kerstin G. KRIEGLSTEIN, Joachim Wittbrodt, Stephan Heermann

This study identifies TGF{beta} as essential for optic fissure fusion, with BMP antagonists preventing excessive BMP signaling to facilitate closure.

Interplay of TGFb superfamily members governs optic fissure closure

Stephan Heermann, Priska Eckert, Juan L. Mateo, Eleni Roussa, Belal Rahhal, Aimee Zuniga, Kerstin Krieglstein, Jochim Wittbrodt

This study identifies TGFb signaling's role in optic fissure closure through ECM remodeling, regulated by BMP antagonists in zebrafish and supported by TGFb KO mouse coloboma phenotype.
