Role of fibronectin in primary mesenchyme cell migration in the sea urchin
نویسندگان
چکیده
We studied the effect of fibronectin (FN) on the behavior of primary mesenchyme cells isolated from sea urchin mesenchyme blastulae in vitro using a time-lapse technique. The migration of isolated primary mesenchyme cells reconstituted in seawater and horse serum is dependent on the presence or absence of exogenous FN in the culture media. The cells in FN, 4 and 40 micrograms/ml, show a high percentage of migration and migrate long distances, whereas a higher concentration of FN at 400 micrograms/ml tends to inhibit migration.

Role Cell of Fibronectin in Primary Mesenchyme Migration in the Sea Urchin
We studied the effect of fibronectin (FN) on the behavior of primary mesenchyme cells isolated from sea urchin mesenchyme blastulae in vitro using a time-lapse technique. The migration of isolated primary mesenchyme cells reconstituted in seawater and horse serum is dependent on the presence or absence of exogenous FN in the culture media. The cells in FN, 4 and 40 #g/ml, show a high percentage...
متن کاملThree cell recognition changes accompany the ingression of sea urchin primary mesenchyme cells.
At gastrulation the primary mesenchyme cells of sea urchin embryos lose contact with the extracellular hyaline layer and with neighboring blastomeres as they pass through the basal lamina and enter the blastocoel. This delamination process was examined using a cell-binding assay to follow changes in affinities between mesenchyme cells and their three substrates: hyalin, early gastrula cells, an...
متن کاملThe role of lysyl oxidase and collagen crosslinking during sea urchin development.
Lysyl oxidase, the only enzyme involved in collagen crosslinking, is shown to be present in embryos of the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus. The enzyme specific activity increases over six-fold during development, showing the greatest rise during gastrulation and prism larva formation. The enzyme is inhibited by the specific inhibitor, beta-aminoproprionitrile (BAPN). Continuous BAPN tr...
متن کاملFrizzled5/8 is required in secondary mesenchyme cells to initiate archenteron invagination during sea urchin development.
Wnt signaling pathways play key roles in numerous developmental processes both in vertebrates and invertebrates. Their signals are transduced by Frizzled proteins, the cognate receptors of the Wnt ligands. This study focuses on the role of a member of the Frizzled family, Fz5/8, during sea urchin embryogenesis. During development, Fz5/8 displays restricted expression, beginning at the 60-cell s...
متن کاملPattern formation during gastrulation in the sea urchin embryo.
The sea urchin embryo follows a relatively simple cell behavioral sequence in its gastrulation movements. To form the mesoderm, primary mesenchyme cells ingress from the vegetal plate and then migrate along the basal lamina lining the blastocoel. The presumptive secondary mesenchyme and endoderm then invaginate from the vegetal pole of the embryo. The archenteron elongates and extends across th...
