Cytochalasin D inhibits basal body migration and ciliary elongation in quail oviduct epithelium

Abstract: The effects of cytochalasin D (CD) were studied by scanning (SEM) and transmission (TEM) electron-microscopic examination at different stages of ciliary differentiation in epithelial cells of quail oviduct. Immature quails were prestimulated by estradiol benzoate injections to induce ciliogenesis in the undifferentiated oviduct. After 24 h of CD culture, SEM study revealed inhibition of ciliogenesis and dilation of the apex of non-ciliated cells. TEM study showed that 2 h of CD treatment produced dilation of l… Show more

“…Because a well-organized actin cytoskeleton is required for the migration and docking of the basal bodies to the apical plasma membrane, and for cilia elongation (Boisvieux-Ulrich et al, 1990;Pan et al, 2007;Ravanelli and Klingensmith, 2011;Tamm and Tamm, 1988), a sept7b-dependent disruption of actin organization could contribute to the defects in ciliogenesis. Alternatively, the reduced number of basal bodies upon sept7b knockdown could also lead to reduced cortical actin, as a dense apical actin cap has been shown to form around basal bodies after their apical docking (Pan et al, 2007;Werner et al, 2011).…”

“…5b, arrows). In addition, the microvilli, which interspaced the axonema, appeared to be reduced in length as well as in number, compared with the WT samples from the same litter, reminiscent of actin organization or Rho GTPase activity defect 32,33 . Thus, in mutant cells basal bodies multiply normally but fail to migrate apically, suggesting a defect in transport and/or docking at the apical membrane.…”

“…These structures extend laterally to basal bodies, point to the effective stroke of cilia beats [32][33] and are considered a landmark of cilia polarity 34 . In WT ( During assembly of motile cilia, basal bodies (bb) form deep in the cytoplasm and are transported to the apical surface via actin-dependent mechanisms 33,[35][36] . To study how Celsr2 inactivation influences ependymal ciliogenesis, we performed sections perpendicular to the ventricular surface to examine by TEM the position of bb relatively to the apical surface of ependymal cells at P10.…”

“…Studies of ciliogenesis in the quail oviduct showed that localization of basal bodies to the apical cell domain depends on actin dynamics 35 . In line with this, ciliogenesis is defective in Foxj1 mutant mice, due to abnormal basal body anchoring to the actin-based apical cytoskeleton, and failure of RhoA-mediated apical actin enrichment [44][45][46][47] .…”
