Epithelial cell division in the Xenopus laevis embryo during gastrulation.
How vertebrate epithelial cells divide in vivo and how the cellular environment influences cell division is currently poorly understood. A sine qua non condition to study cell division in situ is the ease of observation of cell division. This is fulfilled in the Xenopus embryo at the gastrula stage where polarized epithelial cells divide with a high frequency at the surface of the organism. Rec...
متن کاملNew approaches to glycoconjugate synthesis
Absnuct: Generally convergent strategies are employed in glyconjugate synthesis, hence the oligosaccharide moiety and the aglycon moiety are separately prepared and then linked to yield the target molecule; for glycopeptides linear synthesis strategies are more successful. The importance of p-glycosidic linkages of glucosamine and galactosamine in glycoconjugates was reason for the development ...
متن کاملThe function and mechanism of convergent extension during gastrulation of Xenopus laevis.
The processes thought to function in Xenopus gastrulation include bottle cell formation, migration of cells on the roof of the blastocoel, and autonomous convergent extension of the circumblastoporal region. A review of recent and classical results shows that only the last accounts for the bulk of the tissue displacement of gastrulation, including spreading of the marginal zone toward the blast...
متن کاملExpression of xSDF-1α, xCXCR4, and xCXCR7 during gastrulation in Xenopus laevis.
Chemokines play a crucial role in developmental processes and recent studies have revealed that they also control gastrulation movements. In this paper, we report the expression patterns of xSDF-1α, xCXCR4 and xCXCR7 and regulation of the expression of xSDF-1α and xCXCR4 during gastrulation. We performed whole mount in situ hybridization (WISH) and quantitative real-time RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) analys...
متن کاملThe behaviour and function of bottle cells during gastrulation of Xenopus laevis.
The behaviour of bottle cells in normal and microsurgically altered gastrulae and in cultured explants of Xenopus laevis was analysed, using time-lapse micrography, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and cell tracing with fluorescein dextran amine (FDA). The results shed new light on the function of bottle cells. Bottle cells forming in vivo show a predominantly animal-vegetal apical contractio...
