Q

Gastrulation
occurs when?
How does it happen?

A

occurs at the end of the 3rd week

Primitive node is formed then primitive streak. Ectodermal cells migrate through primitive streak to form new population of cells between ecto and endoderm.

Q

Neural crest cells

How does ectoderm form outer surface of the embryo

when is all this happening

what happens to endoderm

A

come together to form the neural tube.

  • edges of ecto derm push up and crow around the endoderm. Pushing down and forming circle around endo and meso and forms outer surface of the embryo
  • week 4
  • endoderm starts as a flat surface and gets pinched off as ectoderm forms around it-> forms the gut

23
Q

do craniofacial regions use hox genes? why?

A

craniofacial region is a more recent evolutionary structure, developed new sets of TFs

24
Q

Hox TFs
Homeobox TFs
All transcription factors have

A
  • very ancient genes involved in ancient body pattern direction
  • *subset of homeobox
  • includes a specific 180 base pair homeobox with specific sequence
  • include DNA binding domain that allows them to interact with and regulate genes
25
Q

Branchial arches form by

A

Infiltrating Neural crest cells and proliferating mesoderm

26
Q

Each arch is comprised of

A
external bump (ectoderm)
Internal bump (endoderm)

36
Q

Fusion:

what structures utilize this

A

breakdown of surface epithelium to unify previously separate processes
