A BMP regulatory network controls ectodermal cell fate decisions at the neural plate border.
During ectodermal patterning the neural crest and preplacodal ectoderm are specified in adjacent domains at the neural plate border. BMP signalling is required for specification of both tissues, but how it is spatially and temporally regulated to achieve this is not understood. Here, using a transgenic zebrafish BMP reporter line in conjunction with double-fluorescent in situ hybridisation, we ...
متن کاملAppropriate aims: setting boundaries for reprogenetic technology.
Not too long ago, ten fingers and ten toes defined a successful birth. Not too far from now, ten fingers and ten toes will be just the beginning. Parents always hope for a healthy baby, and medical advances continue to help secure the fulfillment of this hope. But reprogenetics, a new combination of technology and science that allows us to choose the genes, and thus the traits, of the children ...
متن کاملFate map of the chicken neural plate at stage 4.
A detailed fate map was obtained for the early chick neural plate (stages 3d/4). Numerous overlapping plug grafts were performed upon New-cultured chick embryos, using fixable carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester to label donor chick tissue. The specimens were harvested 24 hours after grafting and reached in most cases stages 9-11 (early neural tube). The label was detected immunocyt...
متن کاملDynamic transcriptional signature and cell fate analysis reveals plasticity of individual neural plate border cells
The 'neural plate border' of vertebrate embryos contains precursors of neural crest and placode cells, both defining vertebrate characteristics. How these lineages segregate from neural and epidermal fates has been a matter of debate. We address this by performing a fine-scale quantitative temporal analysis of transcription factor expression in the neural plate border of chick embryos. The resu...
متن کاملNeural fold formation at newly created boundaries between neural plate and epidermis in the axolotl.
According to a recent model, the cortical tractor model, neural fold and neural crest formation occurs at the boundary between neural plate and epidermis because random cell movements become organized at this site. If this is correct, then a fold should form at any boundary between epidermis and neural plate. To test that proposition, we created new boundaries in axolotl embryos by juxtaposing ...
