M01: THIRD WEEK OF DEVELOPMENT: TRILAMINAR GERM Flashcards
process whereby the bilaminar embryonic disc undergoes reorganization to form a trilaminar disc
GASTRULATION
throughout the gastrulation, ectoderm continuous to form the ___to the ___ end of embryo
cranial
caudal
what are the three distinct primary germ layers established during gastrulation
ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm
Marks the end of gastrulation
establishment of three distinct primary germ layers throughout the whole embryonic disc
GASTRULATION begins with the ___formation on the surface of the epiblast
primitive streak
what day does the bilaminar embryonic disc, consisting of hypoblast and epiblast has formed
day 14
composition of bilaminar embryonic disc at day 14 (2)
hypoblast and epiblast
what day does A thickened structure formed along the midline in the epiblast near caudal end of bilaminar embryonic disc
day 15
this is the midline formed in the epiblast near caudal end of bilaminar embryonic disc
the primitive streak
where primitive streak is formed
midline of the epiblast
At what day does the primitive Streak visible as a narrow groove
day 15 and 16
It defines the major body axis of embryo
primitive streak
what major body axes are defined by primitive streak
cranial end- towards the head
caudal end- towards the tail
left and right side of embryo
the primitive streak expands to create a what?
primitive node
what is the circular depression content of primitive node
primitive pit
T/F, The primitive pit is continuous with the primitive groove,
true
the primitive groove runs {caudally/cranially} along the midline of the primitive streak.
caudally
A process where cells of the epiblast migrate inwards towards the streak; they detach from the epiblast, and slip beneath into the interior of the embryonic disc
invagination
Invagination occurs before primitive groove is formed, T/F
false, after
It controls cell migration and specification
Fibroblast Growth Factor 8 (FGF8)
(FGF8) is synthesized by?
streak cells
• Cell movement control through down-regulation of what protein?
E-cadherin
protein that binds epiblast cells together
E-cadherin
Cell specification control into the mesoderm through ___expression regulation
BRACHYURY (T)
The first cells to invaginate through primitive node invade the ____and displace its cells.
hypoblast
the new proximal cell layer which replaces the hypoblast cells completely
Definitive endoderm
what day is • majority of hypoblast has been replaced
day 16
is the remaining cells of epiblast, which forms the most exterior, distal layer
Ectoderm
the invaginated epiblast cells that remain between ectoderm and newly formed definitive endoderm will form a layer called
mesoderm
Layer which subsequently forms the notochord
mesoderm
notochord
the basis for the axial skeleton.
Once the formation of the definitive endoderm and mesoderm is complete, ____ no longer migrate towards the primitive streak
epiblast cells
the remaining cells of the epiblast which forms the third germ layer
ectoderm
by the end of the ___week, the three primary germ layers complete the embryonic disc.
third
what is displaced in the formation of endoderm
hypoblast
Once cells are invaginated, some cells displace the hypoblast, forming what layer
endoderm
Seen in between the epiblast and newly formed endoderm
mesoderm
Remaining cells in epiblast create what?
ectoderm
As more cells migrate to epiblast and hypoblast layers, they spread __and __ (direction)
laterally
cranially
Cell migrate gradually beyond disc margin and establish contact with ___
extraembryonic mesoderm
covers yolk sac and amnion
extraembryonic mesoderm
direction at which cells pass at each side of prechordal plate
Cephalic direction
important for forebrain induction
prechordal plate
formed between tip of notochord and oropharyngeal membrane
prechordal plate
contains a small region of tightly adherent ectoderm and endoderm cells
Oropharyngeal membrane
location of Oropharyngeal membrane
at cranial end
future opening of oral cavity
tightly adherent ectoderm and endoderm cells of Oropharyngeal membrane
the stage of development where the neural plate forms the neural tube
Neurulation
mark the beginning of the formation of the central nervous system
Neurulation
The first event in neurulation is
formation of the neural plate.
thickened area of cells in neurolation
neural plate
At what day does the notochord induces the ectodermal cells lying just cranial to the primitive node to differentiate into columnar neuroepithelial cells
19 days after fertilization
A process in which notochord induces the ectodermal cells lying just cranial to the primitive node to differentiate into columnar neuroepithelial cells
neural induction
What will the ectodermal cells differentiate into during neural induction
columnar neuroepithelial cells
Invaginating pre-notochordal cells move forward cranially in the midline until they reach the ___
prechordal plate
they intercalate in hypoblast creating 2 transient layers that form notochord plate
Pre-notochordal cells
what forms during intercalation of pre-notochordal cells
notochord plate
