The segmentation clock: converting embryonic time into spatial pattern.
In most animal species, the anteroposterior body axis is generated by the formation of repeated structures called segments. In vertebrate segmentation, a specialized mesodermal structure called the somite gives rise to skeletal muscles, vertebrae, and some dermis. Formation of the somites is a rhythmic process that involves an oscillator--the segmentation clock--driven by Wnt and Notch signalin...
متن کاملConverting genetic network oscillations into somite spatial patterns.
The segmentation of vertebrate embryos, a process known as somitogenesis, depends on a complex genetic network that generates highly dynamic gene expression in an oscillatory manner. A recent proposal for the mechanism underlying these oscillations involves negative-feedback regulation at transcriptional translational levels, also known as the "delay model" [J. Lewis Curr. Biol. 13, 1398 (2003)...
متن کاملThe Effect of chick Embryonic Somites on Neural Rosette Formation in Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells
purpose: The aim of the present study is to understand if EBs can generate neural rosette upon co-culture with chick embryo somites. Materials and Methods: The mouse ES cells, line Royan Bl, were cultured in hanging drops to induce embryoid bodies (EBs) formation. Somites were isolated from the chick embryos and then embedded in alginate solution. Finally, alginate beads containing somites were...
متن کاملRetinoic acid controls the bilateral symmetry of somite formation in the mouse embryo.
A striking characteristic of vertebrate embryos is their bilaterally symmetric body plan, which is particularly obvious at the level of the somites and their derivatives such as the vertebral column. Segmentation of the presomitic mesoderm must therefore be tightly coordinated along the left and right embryonic sides. We show that mutant mice defective for retinoic acid synthesis exhibit delaye...
متن کاملSynaptic Noise and Physiological Coupling Generate High Frequency Oscillations in a 4 Hippocampal Computational Model
24 There is great interest in the role of coherent oscillations in the brain. In some cases, high 25 frequency oscillations (HFOs) are integral to normal brain function, while at other times they are 26 implicated as markers of epileptic tissue. Mechanisms underlying HFO generation, especially in 27 abnormal tissue, are not well understood. Using a physiological computer model of 28 hippocampus...
