Genetic disruption of CYP26B1 severely affects development of neural crest derived head structures, but does not compromise hindbrain patterning

Abstract: Cyp26b1 encodes a cytochrome-P450 enzyme that catabolizes retinoic acid (RA), a vitamin A derived signaling molecule. We have examined Cyp26b1 ؊/؊ mice and report that mutants exhibit numerous abnormalities in cranial neural crest cell derived tissues. At embryonic day (E) 18.5 Cyp26b1 ؊/؊ animals exhibit a truncated mandible, abnormal tooth buds, reduced ossification of calvaria, and are missing structures of the maxilla and nasal process. Some of these abnormalities may be due to defects in formation of Meck… Show more

“…All Cyp26b1À/À fetuses examined had a complete cleft of the secondary palate (30 of 30 Cyp26b1À/À fetuses at E18.5). Cyp26b1À/À mice at E18.5 exhibit a wide palate defect and die after birth, as previously reported (Yashiro et al, 2004;Maclean et al, 2009) (Fig. 2A).…”

“…Scale bars ¼ 100 mm in A-D and 200 mm in H and I. that either their origin or insertion is located on the hyoid bone and all of them play an important role for depressing the tongue and mandibular primordia. Since the hyoid bone is absent in Cyp26b1À/À mice (Maclean et al, 2009), it is very plausible that the origin or insertion of these muscles is severely disrupted. The significantly greater height of the Cyp26b1À/À tongue compared to the WT tongue would be consistent with defective function of these tongue muscles in Cyp26b1À/À mice.…”

“…8). Treatment of wild-type zebrafish with RA or the Cyp26 inhibitor before suture establishment led to reduced calvarial growth and reduced plate sizes and thicknesses, mimicking the defects of human and mouse CYP26B1 amorphs (Maclean et al, 2009;Laue et al, 2011). In addition, osteogenic fronts displayed a loss of osteoblast markers and a gain of preosteocyte markers (Fig.…”

“…It may represent an important mechanism for driving morphological changes in facial architecture during evolution. Such a mechanism is reinforced by experiments implicating elevation of RA that also lead to skull and face bone defects (Vieux-Rochas et al, 2007;Maclean et al, 2009). In both Rara/g-and Rara/b-null mutants, the alisphenoid and incus, which are derived from the maxillary process of BA1, are fused through a supernumerary piece of cartilage to form a pterygoquadrate element that has been lost during mammalian evolution .…”
