Taste buds develop autonomously from endoderm without induction by cephalic neural crest or paraxial mesoderm.
Although it had long been believed that embryonic taste buds in vertebrates were induced to differentiate by ingrowing nerve fibers, we and others have recently shown that embryonic taste buds can develop normally in the complete absence of innervation. This leads to the question of which tissues, if any, induce the formation of taste buds in oropharyngeal endoderm. We proposed that taste buds,...
متن کاملExpression of zebrafish fkd6 in neural crest-derived glia
The zebrafish fkd6 gene is a marker for premigratory neural crest. In this study, we analyze later expression in putative glia of the peripheral nervous system. Prior to neural crest migration, fkd6 expression is downregulated in crest cells. Subsequently, expression appears initially in loose clusters of cells in positions corresponding to cranial ganglia. Double labelling with a neuronal mark...
متن کاملZebrafish Endzone Regulates Neural Crest-Derived Chromatophore Differentiation and Morphology
The development of neural crest-derived pigment cells has been studied extensively as a model for cellular differentiation, disease and environmental adaptation. Neural crest-derived chromatophores in the zebrafish (Danio rerio) consist of three types: melanophores, xanthophores and iridiphores. We have identified the zebrafish mutant endzone (enz), that was isolated in a screen for mutants wit...
متن کاملInduction of a neural phenotype in a serotonergic endocrine cell derived from the neural crest.
The thyroid parafollicular cell is an endocrine cell derived from the neural crest that stores 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT). In common with serotonergic neurons, but in contrast to 5-HT-storing cells that are not neurectodermal derivatives, parafollicular cells also contain a specific 5-HT binding protein. Despite this similarity to serotonergic neurons, parafollicular cells in situ were found to...
متن کاملNeural crest inducing signals.
The formation of the neural crest has been traditionally considered a classic example of secondary induction, where signals form one tissue elicit a response in a competent responding tissue. Interactions of the neural plate with paraxial mesoderm or nonneural ectoderm can generate neural crest. Several signaling pathways converge at the border between neural and nonneural ectoderm where the ne...
