Correction: Formation of a Polarised Primitive Endoderm Layer in Embryoid Bodies Requires Fgfr/Erk Signalling
The primitive endoderm arises from the inner cell mass during mammalian pre-implantation development. It faces the blastocoel cavity and later gives rise to the extraembryonic parietal and visceral endoderm. Here, we investigate a key step in primitive endoderm development, the acquisition of apico-basolateral polarity and epithelial characteristics by the non-epithelial inner cell mass cells. ...
متن کاملFGF signal-dependent segregation of primitive endoderm and epiblast in the mouse blastocyst.
Primitive endoderm (PE) and epiblast (EPI) are two lineages derived from the inner cell mass (ICM) of the E3.5 blastocyst. Recent studies showed that EPI and PE progenitors expressing the lineage-specific transcriptional factors Nanog and Gata6, respectively, arise progressively as the ICM develops. Subsequent sorting of the two progenitors during blastocyst maturation results in the ormation o...
متن کاملZO-1 and ZO-2 Are Required for Extra-Embryonic Endoderm Integrity, Primitive Ectoderm Survival and Normal Cavitation in Embryoid Bodies Derived from Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells
The Zonula Occludens proteins ZO-1 and ZO-2 are cell-cell junction-associated adaptor proteins that are essential for the structural and regulatory functions of tight junctions in epithelial cells and their absence leads to early embryonic lethality in mouse models. Here, we use the embryoid body, an in vitro peri-implantation mouse embryogenesis model, to elucidate and dissect the roles ZO-1 a...
متن کاملAtypical protein kinase C couples cell sorting with primitive endoderm maturation in the mouse blastocyst
During mouse pre-implantation development, extra-embryonic primitive endoderm (PrE) and pluripotent epiblast precursors are specified in the inner cell mass (ICM) of the early blastocyst in a 'salt and pepper' manner, and are subsequently sorted into two distinct layers. Positional cues provided by the blastocyst cavity are thought to be instrumental for cell sorting; however, the sequence of e...
متن کاملErythropoiesis and vasculogenesis in embryoid bodies lacking visceral yolk sac endoderm.
During mouse embryogenesis the first hematopoietic and endothelial cells form in blood islands located between layers of visceral endoderm and mesoderm in the yolk sac. The role of visceral endoderm in primitive hematopoiesis and vasculogenesis is not well understood. We have assessed the consequences of a lack of visceral endoderm on blood cell and vessel formation using embryoid bodies derive...
