Growth Based Morphogenesis of Vertebrate Limb Bud
Many genes and their regulatory relationships are involved in developmental phenomena. However, by chemical information alone, we cannot fully understand changing organ morphologies through tissue growth because deformation and growth of the organ are essentially mechanical processes. Here, we develop a mathematical model to describe the change of organ morphologies through cell proliferation. ...
متن کاملCell to Cell Signalling during Vertebrate Limb Development
The vertebrate limb is one of the most relevant experimental models in which to analyse cell-cell signalling during patterning of embryonic fields and organogenesis. Recently, the combination of molecular and genetic studies with experimental manipulation of developing limb buds has significantly advanced our understanding of the complex molecular interactions coordinating limb bud outgrowth an...
متن کاملMisexpression of Hoxa-13 induces cartilage homeotic transformation and changes cell adhesiveness in chick limb buds.
During chick limb development, the Abd-B subfamily of genes in the HoxA cluster are expressed in a region-specific manner along the proximodistal axis. To elucidate the function of Hoxa-13 that is expressed in the autopod during normal limb development, Hoxa-13 was misexpressed in the entire limb bud with a replication-competent retroviral system. Misexpression of Hoxa-13 resulted in a remarkab...
متن کاملCell adhesiveness and affinity for limb pattern formation.
Stage-dependent cell sorting in vitro is an intriguing property that mesenchymal cells of a chick limb bud have. We previously proposed that N-cadherin, a cell adhesion molecule, is involved in the sorting process and is likely to be a component of the mechanism of proximal-distal patterning in the developing limb (Yajima et al., (1999) Dev. Dynam. 216:274-284). Here, we present more direct evi...
متن کاملDisc morphogenesis in vertebrate photoreceptors.
Electron microscopic examination of the bases of adult rod and cone outer segments (rhesus monkey, ground squirrel, and grey squirrel) has led to a new model of disc morphogenesis. In this model the disc surfaces and disc rims develop by separate mechanisms and from separate regions of the membrane of the inner face of the cilium. This membrane is alternately specified into regions that will fo...
