摘要


Although many molecules are necessary for neuronal cell migrations in C. elegans, no guidance cues are known to be essential for any of these cells to migrate along the anteroposterior (AP) axis. We demonstrate that the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) EGL-17, an attractant for the migrating sex myoblasts (SMs), repels the CANs, a pair of neurons that migrate posteriorly from the head to the center of the embryo. Although mutations in genes encoding EGL-17/FGF and a specific isoform of its receptor EGL-15/FGFR had little effect on CAN migration, they enhanced the CAN migration defects caused by mutations in other genes. Two cells at the anterior end of the embryo express EGL-17/FGF, raising the possibility that EGL-17/FGF functions as a repellent for migrating CANs. Consistent with this hypothesis, ectopic expression of EGL-17/FGF shifted the final CAN cell positions away from these novel sites of expression. Cell-specific rescue experiments demonstrated that EGL-15/FGFR acts in the CANs to promote their migration. We also found that the tyrosine phosphatase receptor CLR-1 regulates CAN migration by inhibiting EGL-15/FGFR signaling, and that the FGFR adaptor protein SEM-5/GRB2 may mediate EGL-15/FGFR signaling in CAN migration. Thus, EGL-17/FGF signaling through an EGL-15/FGFR isoform and possibly SEM-5/GRB2 mediates both attraction of the SMs and repulsion of the CANs. This study also raises the possibility that several guidance cues regulate cell migrations along the C. elegans AP axis, and their role in these migrations may only be revealed in sensitized genetic backgrounds.
