Study of regenerative potential of Sertoli cell progenitors in Xenopus tropicalis tadpoles after tail amputation.
 Wróblová, Aneta ; Krylov, Vladimír (advisor) ; Procházka, Jan (referee)
African clawed frogs (Xenopus) represent an ideal model organism for study of regeneration mechanisms. In frogs, complete regeneration occurs in the tadpole stage. In later stages the regeneration capacity is lost. The Laboratory of Developmental biology was successful in establishment of cell culture called Xenopus tropicalis immature Sertoli cells (XtiSCs) derived from X. tropicalis testes. These cells are common progenitors of Sertoli cells and peritubular myoid cells. XtiSCs show similar characteristics as mesenchymal stem cells. MSCs hold interest of scientists for their immunomodulatory properties and multipotent differential and regeneration potential. In this thesis, we studied regeneration and migration potential of XtiSCs after X. tropicalis tadpole's tail amputation in developmental stage 47 - 50. Transgenic XtiSCs culture expressing RFP was prepared to facilitate transplantation experiments. Transplantation experiments showed preferential migration of XtiSCs into the site of injury. XtiSCs transplantations in X. laevis tadpoles with downregulated NO synthases eNOS and nNOS revealed their migratory dependence on nitric oxide signalization. Imunocytochemical staining of XtiSCs in vitro showed positive iNOS, nNOS and Pax7 expression. Imunohistochemical staining of tadpole's tail vibratome...

Differential potential of neural crest cells
 Wróblová, Aneta ; Krylov, Vladimír (advisor) ; Machoň, Ondřej (referee)
The neural crest is a transient structure formed during the neurulation which undergoes change of phenotype in the process of epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Subsequently, neural crest cells delaminate and migrate collectively and individually to their place of destination, where they differentiate into a broad repertoir of mesenchymal and non-mesenchymal cell types. This thesis aims to examine true differential potential of these cells based on crucial in vitro experiments. Neural crest cells show not only high migration potential, but also stem cells characteristics like multipotency and self-renewal capacity. I also provide answers to questions about cellular potency at the level of neural crest population and along anterior-posterior axis. It was necessary to clarify the essence of events leading to induction, specification, epithelial-mesenchymal transition and migration of neural crest cells, since they are crucial for their differentiation potential. A major role in differentiation as well as in previous processes plays the gene regulatory network which is comprised of mutually affecting signalling pathways. Studying the behaviour of migratory and post-migratory neural crest cells is important for the research of regenerative medicine and even cancer and neurocristopathic treatment.
