A 2-dimensional Mechanical Model of the Formation of a Somite
The mechanochemical model proposed in 1983 by G. Oster, J. D. Murray and A. K. Harris has been deployed to describe various morphological phenomena in biology, such as feather bud formation [17] and angiogenesis and vasculogenesis [10, 13]. In this article, we apply a mechanochemical model to the formation of a somite to better understand the role that the mechanical aspects of the cells and th...
متن کاملA Notch feeling of somite segmentation and beyond.
Vertebrate segmentation is manifested during embryonic development as serially repeated units termed somites that give rise to vertebrae, ribs, skeletal muscle and dermis. Many theoretical models including the "clock and wavefront" model have been proposed. There is compelling genetic evidence showing that Notch-Delta signaling is indispensable for somitogenesis. Notch receptor and its target g...
متن کاملA Multi-cell, Multi-scale Model of Vertebrate Segmentation and Somite Formation
Somitogenesis, the formation of the body's primary segmental structure common to all vertebrate development, requires coordination between biological mechanisms at several scales. Explaining how these mechanisms interact across scales and how events are coordinated in space and time is necessary for a complete understanding of somitogenesis and its evolutionary flexibility. So far, mechanisms o...
متن کاملinvestigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
Hes7 3′UTR is required for somite segmentation function
A set of genes in the posterior end of developing mouse embryos shows oscillatory expression, thereby regulating periodic somite segmentation. Although the mechanism for generating oscillation has extensively been clarified, what regulates the oscillation period is still unclear. We attempted to elongate the oscillation period by increasing the time to transcribe Hes7 in this research. We gener...
