Meningeal-derived retinoic acid regulates neurogenesis via suppression of Notch and Sox2

Christina N. Como, Rebecca O’Rourke, Caitlin C. Winkler, Danae N. Mitchell, Luuli N. Tran, David S. Lorberbaum, Lori Sussel, Santos J. Franco, Julie A. Siegenthaler

This study identifies meningeal-derived retinoic acid's role in suppressing Notch and Sox2 to regulate neurogenesis in neocortical progenitors.

Retinoic acid signaling in mouse retina endothelial cells is required for early angiogenic growth

Christina N. Como, Cesar Cervantes, Bradley T. Pawlikowski, Julie A. Siegenthaler

This study shows that retinoic acid signaling in endothelial cells is critical for early retinal angiogenesis, but the vasculature can recover by P15.

Formation and function of the meninges arachnoid barrier around the developing brain

Julia Derk, Christina N. Como, Hannah E. Jones, Luke R. Joyce, Stephanie K. Bonney, Rebecca O’Rourke, Bradley T. Pawlikowski, Kelly S. Doran, Julie A. Siegenthaler

The paper identifies Wnt-β-catenin signaling repression as key to arachnoid barrier cell specification in mouse meninges and shows its role in preventing pathogen entry during development.
