Kidney morphogenesis: cellular and molecular regulation
Development of an organ is directed by cell and tissue interactions and these also occur during the formation of functional kidney. During vertebrate development inductive signalling between mesenchyme and epithelium controls the organogenesis of all three kinds of kidneys: pronephros, mesonephros and metanephros. In higher animals the metanephros differentiates into the permanent kidney and in...
متن کاملCellular Mechanisms of Drosophila Heart Morphogenesis
Many of the major discoveries in the fields of genetics and developmental biology have been made using the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster. With regard to heart development, the conserved network of core cardiac transcription factors that underlies cardiogenesis has been studied in great detail in the fly, and the importance of several signaling pathways that regulate heart morphogenesis, su...
متن کاملCellular and Molecular Regulation of Embryonic Skeletal Development and Morphogenesis
Embryonic skeletal development is the result of programmed differentiation and morphogenesis of the embryonic mesoderm. This review summarizes recent cellular and molecular findings on the mechanisms underlying development of the cranial, axial, appendicular skeletal components. Specifically, the identities and activities of patterning and morphogenetic genes are presented, as well as the regul...
متن کاملMolecular perspectives of wound healing--cellular models.
The skin is the largest and heaviest organ and the most vital protective mechanism against foreign organism invasion and physical injury. It consists of two layers, the dermis and epidermis, both of which include different types of cells, including keratinocytes, melanocytes, and Langerhans and Merkel cells, as well as collagen and elastic fibers, in which fibroblasts, macrophages, mast cells, ...
متن کاملGrowth and Morphogenesis during Early Heart Development in Amniotes
In this review, we will focus on the growth and morphogenesis of the developing heart, an aspect of cardiovascular development to which Antoon Moorman and colleagues have extensively contributed. Over the last decades, genetic studies and characterization of regionally regulated gene programs have provided abundant novel insights into heart development essential to understand the basis of conge...
