Abstract
Notch signaling defines an evolutionarily ancient cell interaction mechanism, which plays a fundamental role in metazoan development. Signals exchanged between neighboring cells through the Notch receptor can amplify and consolidate molecular differences, which eventually dictate cell fates. Thus, Notch signals control how cells respond to intrinsic or extrinsic developmental cues that are necessary to unfold specific developmental programs. Notch activity affects the implementation of differentiation, proliferation, and apoptotic programs, providing a general developmental tool to influence organ formation and morphogenesis.

Notch1 and Jagged1 are expressed after CNS demyelination, but are not a major rate-determining factor during remyelination.

TL;DR: It is shown that Notch1 is expressed on adult OPCs and that there are multiple cellular sources of its ligand Jagged1 in a rodent model of remyelination, and that OPC-targeted NotCh1 ablation in cuprizone-treated Plp-creER Notch 1(lox/lox) transgenic mice yielded no significant differences in remyELination parameters.

Rhamnetin and Cirsiliol Induce Radiosensitization and Inhibition of Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) by miR-34a-mediated Suppression of Notch-1 Expression in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Cell Lines

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that rhamnetin and cirsiliol can act as promising radiosensitizers that enhance the radiotherapeutic efficacy by inhibiting radiation-induced Notch-1 signaling associated with radioresistance possibly via miR-34a-mediated pathways.

Notch Ligand Delta-Like 1 Is Essential for Postnatal Arteriogenesis

TL;DR: Dll1-mediated Notch activation regulates ephrin-B2 expression and postnatal arteriogenesis in mice and in heterozygous Dll1 mutant mice endothelial mice.

Notch and NF-kB signaling pathways regulate miR-223/FBXW7 axis in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia

TL;DR: Notch signaling deregulation is linked to the onset of several tumors including T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) and miRNAs regulated by Notch pathway are identified, including miR-223, whose putative promoter analysis revealed a conserved RBPjk binding site, which was nested to an NF-kB consensus.

Blockade of Notch1 Signaling Alleviates Murine Lupus via Blunting Macrophage Activation and M2b Polarization

TL;DR: In the SLE murine model generated by immunization with activated lymphocyte-derived DNA, infiltrated macrophages in the nephritic tissues were found to exhibit activation and M2b functional polarization, implying that Notch1 signaling-dependent macrophage M2B polarization might play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of SLE.

Notch-1 signalling requires ligand-induced proteolytic release of intracellular domain.

TL;DR: It is shown that signalling by a constitutively active membrane-bound Notch-1 protein requires the proteolytic release of the Notch intracellular domain (NICD), which interacts preferentially with CSL.

Signalling downstream of activated mammalian Notch.

TL;DR: It is shown that activated forms of mNotch associate with the human analogue of Su(H), KBF2/RBP-JK and act as transcriptional activators through theKBF2-binding sites of the HES-1 promoter and block MyoD-induced myogenesis5-7.

Notch signaling : Signal transduction

TL;DR: The Notch/Lin-12/Glp-1 receptor family mediates the specification of numerous cell fates during development in Drosophila and Caenorhabditis elegans and putative components of the signaling cascade are identified, including a conserved family of extracellular ligands and two cellular factors that may associate with the Notch Intracellular domain.
