L17- organ develoment Flashcards
describe a lung
highly branched epithelial strucuture
airways and vasculature need to devlop on a cpprdiated manner
where is the origin of cells that develop into lung
foregut endoderm
what tf code dictates lung cell fate in the foregut endoderm
Nkx2.2 in the ventral foregut
what other tf codes dictate organ cell fate of the cells of the foregut endoderm
hex/apx8/nkx2.1 = thyroid
hex/albumin - liver
pdx-1 = pancreas
where does the lung cells bud towards in the foregut endoderm
to the cardiac region
as releasing gf
when does the lung branch left and right
E9.5
right bigger
what occurs at the same time as the lung bud branches
the single foregut starts to branch into 2
forms the dorsal oesophagus and ventral trachea
what signals and tf are involved in the single foregut branching
Sox2 defines the dorsal oesoph
Nkx2.2 defines the ventral trachea
these are set up by wnt , ko wnt = no seperation of the foregut
how are all the strucutres of the lung made
through reiterative branchign
what are the phases of lung development and when do they occur
embryonic - 3-8 weeks (bronchi and bronchioles)
pseudoglandular - 5-17 weeks (+terminal bronchioles)
canalicular - 16-20 weeks (dev of respiratory
bronchioles/ b.vessel invasion starts)
saccular - 19-38 weeks , (alveolar ducts )
alveolar 23 weeks + (alveoli sacs)
What are the three models of branching
domain branching
planar bifurcation
ortholongal bifurcation
descirbe domain braching
orderly sprout of new buds at specific distance form the tip of the stalk and at position around the circumference
describe planar bifurcation
expand then bifurcate
describe ortholongal bifurcation
first bifurcate planr then twist 90 and bifurctate- rosette
in planar branching what signals control outgrowth
fgf10 in M singals through fgfr2 in epi
fgf10 also induce bmp4 which enh outgrowth
