Coding 15 Flashcards
What makes the neural plate?
Ectoderm
What induces the presumptive neural tissue induction?
Prechordal plate and notochord
What will the ectoderm also make?
Epidermis
Where are the presumptive neural crest cells situated?
Between the epidermis and the CNS
What do the NSC make?
Melanocytes and PNS
What forms with high BMP?
Epidermis
What forms with low BMP?
Neural plate
What forms with intermediate BMP?
NSC formation
What is primary neurulation?
Cells surround the neural plate and proliferate to separate from the ectoderm and make a hollow tube
What does sox1 induce?
Activates genes for the neural plate
What does sox2 induce?
Inhibits the formation of epidermis and NSC
What is secondary neurulation?
Neural tube forms from the mesenchyme cells
What is the transition zone?
Where the anterior and posterior parts of the neural tube join together
How does the neural tube detatch from the surface ectoderm?
By the loss of E-cadherin expression and the transition to the expression of N-cadherin
When does the neural tube fuse?
Day 27
Which ectoderm cells express the sox2 gene?
The ectoderm cells that will form the posterior neural tube
What are the 3 vesicles that the anterior neural tube will make?
- Forebrain
- Midbrain
- Hindbrain
What are rhombomeres?
The hindbrain develop swelling segment patterns that divide into many components
What do the rhombomeres make?
Neurons with different cell fate the neural crest cells form ganglia which can then form different types of nerves
Which neurons are sensory?
The neurons of the dorsal region
