After decapitation, in which the anteriormost 4 segments including the brain were removed, A. viride can regenerate its lost parts within five days. Among many physiological pathways, the canonical Wnt signaling pathway is known to play roles not only in development and stem cell fate determination but also in regeneration. In this study, genes encoding four different components of Wnt signaling pathway, Avi-wnt4, Avi-wnt8, Avi-β-catenin and Avi-notum, have been cloned. All of them were expressed in the newly regenerating cell mass, the blastema. In addition, this pathway exerts its effect by nuclear import of β-catenin, functioning as a transcription co-activator, it was demonstrated that β-catenin indeed localizes into the nucleus in cells of blastema during regeneration. This result indicates that the pathway is in an on state during A. viride regeneration. Furthermore, after treated with XAV939, a Wnt pathway inhibitor, the anterior regeneration of A. viride was obviously inhibited. This result supports that Wnt pathway is indispensable for proper head regeneration in A. viride. However, after treated with azakenpaulone, a Wnt pathway activator, the anterior regeneration of A. viride was also obviously inhibited. However, the inhibitory effects of XAV939 and azakenpaulone took place at different time points. Therefore, it can be inferred that the canonical Wnt signaling pathway is regulated differently in the regeneration process of A. viride. That is, this pathway should be inactivated at the beginning, and then be activated at late during the anterior regeneration.中文摘要 i Abstract ii Introduction 1 Regeneration 1 Wnt signaling pathway 1 The relationship among regeneration, body axis patterning and Wnt signaling pathway 2 Aeolosoma viride 3 Regeneration in A. viride. 4 Aim 4 Main finding in the thesis 4 Material and methods 6 Aeolosoma viride 6 Head amputation 6 Treatments during anterior regeneration 6 mRNA extraction 7 Reverse transcription 7 Gene cloning of Avi-wnt4, Avi,wnt8, AvI-β-catenin and Avi-notum 8 Synthesis of DIG-labled Riboprobes of Avi-wnt4, Avi-β-catenin and Avi-notum 11 Sample preparation for in situ hybridization or Immuno-fluorescence 11 Whole-mount In situ hybridization 12 Whole-mount Immuno-fluorescence 13 EdU labeling for proliferating cell 13 Statistical analysis 14 Results 15 Molecular cloning and phylogenetic analysis of the canonical Wnt signaling pathway genes 15 Gene expression patterns of the canonical Wnt signaling pathway related genes during anterior regeneration in A. viride 16 The effects of the canonical Wnt signaling related-drugs to anterior regeneration 17 Nuclear translocation of β-catenin during the anterior regeneration 18 Cell proliferation on the blastema during anterior regeneration 20 Discussion 21 Gene conservation 21 A/P body axis patterning 21 Anterior Regeneration in A. viride 22 An axis-pattern model for the anterior regeneration in A. viride 25 Other puzzles in the thesis 26 Future works 27 Reference 28 Table. 32 Figures 33 Supplement data 587584287 bytesapplication/pdf論文公開時間：2019/08/25論文使用權限：同意有償授權(權利金給回饋學校)Wnt訊息傳遞路徑再生瓢體蟲體軸建立thesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/261687/1/ntu-103-R01b41005-1.pdf
