PCP signaling gene mutations cause severe neural tube defects (NTDs). However, the role of canonical Wnt\/\u03b2-catenin signaling in neural tube closure and NTDs remains poorly understood. This study shows that conditional gene targeting of \u03b2-catenin in the dorsal neural folds of mouse embryos represses the expression of the homeobox-containing genes Pax3 and Cdx2 at the dorsal posterior neuropore (PNP), and subsequently diminishes the expression of the Wnt\/\u03b2-catenin signaling target genes T, Tbx6 and Fgf8 at the tail bud, leading to spina bifida aperta, caudal axis bending and tail truncation. We demonstrate that Pax3 and Cdx2 are novel downstream targets of Wnt\/\u03b2-catenin signaling. Transgenic activation of Pax3 cDNA can rescue the closure defect in the \u03b2-catenin mutants, suggesting that Pax3 is a key downstream effector of \u03b2-catenin signaling in the PNP closure process. Cdx2 is known to be crucial in posterior axis elongation and in neural tube closure. We found that Cdx2 expression is also repressed in the dorsal PNPs of Pax3-null embryos. However, the ectopically activated Pax3 in the \u03b2-catenin mutants cannot restore Cdx2 mRNA in the dorsal PNP, suggesting that the presence of both \u03b2-catenin and Pax3 is required for regional Cdx2 expression. Thus, \u03b2-catenin signaling is required for caudal neural tube closure and elongation, acting through the transcriptional regulation of key target genes in the PNP.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1242\/dev.101550","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,11,28]],"date-time":"2013-11-28T03:02:53Z","timestamp":1385607773000},"page":"148-157","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":78,"title":["\u03b2-catenin regulates Pax3 and Cdx2 for caudal neural tube closure and elongation"],"prefix":"10.1242","volume":"141","author":[{"given":"Tianyu","family":"Zhao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Pediatric Regenerative Medicine at Shriners Hospitals for Children-Northern California, Sacramento, CA 95817, USA."},{"name":"Department of Cell Biology and Human Anatomy, University of California at Davis, School of Medicine, Sacramento, CA 95817, USA."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Qini","family":"Gan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Pediatric Regenerative Medicine at Shriners Hospitals for Children-Northern California, Sacramento, CA 95817, USA."},{"name":"Department of Cell Biology and Human Anatomy, University of California at Davis, School of Medicine, Sacramento, CA 95817, USA."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Arjun","family":"Stokes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Pediatric Regenerative Medicine at Shriners Hospitals for Children-Northern California, Sacramento, CA 95817, USA."},{"name":"Department of Cell Biology and Human Anatomy, University of California at Davis, School of Medicine, Sacramento, CA 95817, USA."},{"name":"Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Medicine, University of California at Davis, School of Medicine, Sacramento, CA 95817, USA."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rhonda N.
