Role of WUSCHEL in Regulating Stem Cell Fate in the Arabidopsis Shoot Meristem

Klaus Mayer; Heiko Schoof; Achim Haecker; Michael Lenhard; Gerd Jürgens; Thomas Laux

The shoot meristem gives rise to the aerial parts of higher plants by continuously initiating new organs. The basis of this activity is its ability to maintain a pool of pluripotent stem cells, which are the ultimate source of all tissues of the shoot. In Arabidopsis plants mutant for the WUSCHEL (WUS) gene, the stem cells are misspecified and appear to undergo differentiation. Here, we show that WUS encodes a novel homeodomain protein which presumably acts as a transcriptional regulator. The pattern of WUS expression suggests that stem cells in the shoot meristem are specified by an underlying cell group which is established in the 16-cell embryo and becomes localized to its prospective domain of function by asymmetric cell divisions.

The Stem Cell Population of Arabidopsis Shoot Meristems Is Maintained by a Regulatory Loop between the CLAVATA and WUSCHEL Genes

Heiko Schoof; Michael Lenhard; Achim Haecker; Klaus Mayer; Gerd Jürgens; Thomas Laux

The higher-plant shoot meristem is a dynamic structure whose maintenance depends on the coordination of two antagonistic processes, organ initiation and self-renewal of the stem cell population. In Arabidopsis shoot and floral meristems, the WUSCHEL (WUS) gene is required for stem cell identity, whereas the CLAVATA1, 2, and 3 (CLV) genes promote organ initiation. Our analysis of the interactions between these key regulators indicates that (1) the CLV genes repress WUS at the transcript level and that (2) WUS expression is sufficient to induce meristem cell identity and the expression of the stem cell marker CLV3. Our data suggest that the shoot meristem has properties of a self-regulatory system in which WUS/CLV interactions establish a feedback loop between the stem cells and the underlying organizing center.

Die Rehabilitation von Hirngeschädigten

Klaus Mayer

Auf dem letzten Rehabilitationskongres vor 10 Jahren hat Professor Schuermann die Forderung nach einer zwingend notwendigen Verbesserung der Therapie und der Rehabilitation von Hirngeschadigten eindrucksvoll dargelegt und begrundet. Er und die anderen Teilnehmer des Symposions haben auf die Notwendigkeit der rechtzeitigen Erfassung und richtigen Behandlung der Hirnschadigung und ihrer Ursachen und auf die Notwendigkeit der fruhzeitigen, moglichst nahtlosen Nachbehandlung sowie einer rechtzeitigen und sinnvollen Rehabilitation hingewiesen. Die Feststellungen und Empfehlungen der Teilnehmer dieses Symposions sind auch heute noch gultig.

Klinisch-elektromyographische Untersuchungen

Klaus Mayer

Der Auswertung liegen die elektromyographischen Kurven von insgesamt 319 Patienten zugrunde mit peripher- und zentralmotorischen Funktionsstorungen, die — soweit bisher bekannt — pathologische Aktivitat erwarten liesen. Bei anderen Krankheitsbildern war das Auftreten pathologischer Aktivitat bislang nicht bekannt. Die Diagnose war in jedem Falle durch die klinischen und reizstromdiagnostischen Befunde und den Krankheitsverlauf gesichert.
