Ascidians and the Plasticity of the Chordate Developmental Program
Little is known about the ancient chordates that gave rise to the first vertebrates, but the descendants of other invertebrate chordates extant at the time still flourish in the ocean. These invertebrates include the cephalochordates and tunicates, whose larvae share with vertebrate embryos a common body plan with a central notochord and a dorsal nerve cord. Tunicates are now thought to be the ...
متن کاملLeadership and Leadership Development in Healthcare Settings – A Simplistic Solution to Complex Problems?
There is a trend in health systems around the world to place great emphasis on and faith in improving ‘leadership’. Leadership has been defined in many ways and the elitist implications of traditional notions of leadership sit uncomfortably with modern healthcare organisations. The concept of distributed leadership incorporates inclusivity, collectiveness and collaboration, with the result that...
متن کاملDevelopment of the neuromuscular system during asexual propagation in an invertebrate chordate.
Botryllus schlosseri is a colonial ascidian, and the closest relative to vertebrates that can completely regenerate its entire body, including all somatic and germline tissues, using an asexual developmental pathway called blastogenesis. This regenerative potential exhibited by Botryllus and other colonial ascidians does not exist in any other chordate and makes B. schlosseri a promising model ...
متن کاملChordate ancestry of the neural crest: new insights from ascidians.
This article reviews new insights from ascidians on the ancestry of vertebrate neural crest (NC) cells. Ascidians have neural crest-like cells (NCLC), which migrate from the dorsal midline, express some of the typical NC markers, and develop into body pigment cells. These characters suggest that primordial NC cells were already present in the common ancestor of the vertebrates and urochordates,...
متن کاملDevelopment, Metamorphosis, Morphology and Diversity: The Evolution of Chordate muscles and the Origin of Vertebrates.
Recent findings that urochordates are the closest sister-group of vertebrates have dramatically changed our understanding of chordate evolution and vertebrate origins. To continue to deepen understanding of chordate evolution and diversity, in particular the morphological and taxonomical diversity of the vertebrate clade, one must explore the origin, development and comparative anatomy of not o...
