Role of miR-9 in Xenopus brain development.
Notes: (A) This shows the mechanism of miR-9 in forebrain development. In the forebrain, miR-9 inhibits hairy1 and mediates the effects through Fgf8 signaling for the proliferation of cells. (B) In ZLI, miR-9 inhibits hairy1 for the proper maintenance of the boundary. (C) In the hindbrain, the miR-9 inhibits hairy1 for the proliferation of cells and mediates the effects through Wnt1 signaling.
Abbreviation: miR-9, miRNA-9.
