Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To explore the role of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in hair cell regeneration using zebrafish lateral line system. METHODS Zebrafish larval were incubated in cisplatin solution to induce lateral line hair cells loss and then regenerated for 48 hrs. Supporting cells were sorted, and QPCR was taken to detect the expression change of Wnt/β-catenin signaling factors. Whole mount in situ hybridization was used to show the expression pattern of dkks. Wnt/β-catenin signalinginhibitors(FH535 and XAV939) and enhancer(BIO) was added to the medium to observe the influences on hair cell regeneration. RESULTS RT-PCR and Q-PCR showed that the expressions of wnt2, wnt3a and ctnnb1 in sorting supporting cells were elevated(P＜0.05). Whole mount in situ hybridization showed that the expression of dkk1a and dkk2 in lateral lines sub-supporting cellsreduced. The addition of Wnt/β-catenin signaling inhibitors reduced the regenerated hair cells to 40％ of normal, and even to 10％ when the concentration of inhibitor was elevated.And the first 12 hrs Wnt/β-catenin signaling inhibition also led to the reduced regenerated hair cells(P＜0.001). However, regeneratedhair cells have no significant change compared between BIO-treated and nontreated group(P＞0.05). CONCLUSION Wnt/β-catenin signaling is necessary whilenot sufficient for zebrafish lateral line hair cell regeneration.
