Molecular and tissue interactions governing induction of cranial ectodermal placodes.
Whereas neural crest cells are the source of the peripheral nervous system in the trunk of vertebrates, the "ectodermal placodes," together with neural crest, form the peripheral nervous system of the head. Cranial ectodermal placodes are thickenings in the ectoderm that subsequently ingress or invaginate to make important contributions to cranial ganglia, including epibranchial and trigeminal ...
متن کاملMutual repression between Gbx2 and Otx2 in sensory placodes reveals a general mechanism for ectodermal patterning
In the vertebrate head, central and peripheral components of the sensory nervous system have different embryonic origins, the neural plate and sensory placodes. This raises the question of how they develop in register to form functional sense organs and sensory circuits. Here we show that mutual repression between the homeobox transcription factors Gbx2 and Otx2 patterns the placode territory b...
متن کاملInvagination of Ectodermal Placodes Is Driven by Cell Intercalation-Mediated Contraction of the Suprabasal Tissue Canopy
Ectodermal organs such as teeth, hair follicles, and mammary glands begin their development as placodes. These are local epithelial thickenings that invaginate into mesenchymal space. There is currently little mechanistic understanding of the cellular processes driving the early morphogenesis of these organs and of why they lead to invagination rather than simple tissue thickening. Here, we sho...
متن کامل04-P003 Induction of cranial placodes: The role of ectodermal competence
Noggin1 is a famous embryonic neural inducer that can sequester TGF-beta cytokines of Bone Morphogenetic Protein family, thereby antagonizing Smad1-dependent signaling pathway activity. During early embryogenesis noggin1 executes two major biological functions: conversion of embryonic mesoderm into skeletal muscles (dorsalization) and of ectoderm into neural tissue (neuralization). Anterior neu...
متن کاملA Novel Splicesite Mutation in the EDAR Gene Causes Severe Autosomal Recessive Hypohydrotic (Anhidrotic) Ectodermal Dysplasia in an Iranian Family
Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED) is a rare congenital disorder arising from deficient development of ectoderm-derived structures including skin, nails, glands and teeth. The phenotype of HED is associated with mutation in EDA, EDAR, EDARADD and NEMO genes, all of them disruptingNF-κB signaling cascade necessary for initiation, formation and differentiation in the embryo and adult. ...
