Previously, we [ 1 ] found that upon overexpression of Hoxc-8, the vertebral cartilages accumulate immature chondrocytes, and we showed that these cells are proliferating cells by virtue of staining for Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen (PCNA).
In immature B cells, activation through the BCR induces either a state of unresponsiveness, termed anergy, or death by apoptosis, depending on the physical nature and concentration of the antigen [ 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 ] . In some B cell lymphomas, activation through the BCR can induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in vitro and tumor dormancy in vivo [ 19 26 27 28 ] . The core of the multi-subunit BCR is membrane-bound immunoglobulin (mIg), which is non-covalently associated with two co-receptor molecules, CD79a (Igα) and CD79b (Igβ), products of the mb-1 and B29 genes [ 29 30 ] . The biochemical changes induced by engagement of the BCR are extensive and include an increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of several intracellular proteins, hydrolysis of membrane phospholipids, fluxes in the concentration of intracellular free Ca 2+, activation of several serine/threonine kinases including components of the MAP kinase pathway, and changes in the activities of a panel of transcription factors.
Targeted null Brn3c mutants have no mature hair cells [ 1 2 ] . Close examination has revealed that some 'immature' hair cells form in Brn3c null mutants and express cellular markers such as Myosin VI and VIIa, calretinin and parvalbumin [ 3 ] . Furthermore, these immature hair cells of Brn3c null mutants undergo apoptosis in neonates [ 3 ] . Consistent with an apparent absence of mature hair cells, initial work suggested that all vestibular and most spiral ganglion cells are lost by postnatal day 14 (P14; [ 1 ] ). However, more detailed quantification by others [ 3 ] reported that at P4 about 77% of vestibular neurons and only 29% of spiral neurons are lost.
This antiserum reacts with the CT molecule, whether it is in the free, amidated, 32-amino acid mature form, or within its precursor propeptides [ie procalcitonin, the conjoined calcitonin:calcitonin carboxypeptide-I (CT:CCP-1), or the free immature, unamidated CT].
