... appendages, functions in developing SMG. Surprisingly and unlike in developing hair follicles and teeth, canonical Wnt signaling activity did not colocalize with Edar/NF-κB in salivary gland epithelium. Instead, we observed high mesenchymal Wnt activity and show that ablation of mesenchymal Wnt signaling...

... IκBαΔN ). However, the developmental processes regulated by NF-κB in hair follicles has remained unknown. Furthermore, the similarity between the phenotypes of c IκBAΔN mice and mice deficient in Eda A1( tabby ) or its receptor EdaR ( downless ) raised the issue of whether in vivo NF-κB regulates...

...Leslie Houghton; Catherine Lindon; Bruce A. Morgan The ectodysplasin pathway, comprising the ligand ectodysplasin, its receptor Edar and a dedicated death domain adaptor protein Edaradd, plays an important role in epidermal organ formation in mammals. Mutations in the genes encoding these proteins...

... ectodermal organs, including hair, teeth and exocrine glands. The recent cloning of the genes that underlie these syndromes, ectodysplasin ( ED1 ) and the ectodysplasin A receptor ( EDAR ), and their identification as a novel TNF ligand-receptor pair suggested a role for TNF signaling in embryonic...
