Normal tissue development- Embryogenesis Flashcards
what is cell differentiation?
cells acquireing a specific fate during development
what is cell differentiation?
cells acquireing a specific fate during development
Types of stem cells?
- toti potent
- pluri potent
- maltipotent
kenmerken stem cells?
undifferentiated
no specific cell fate
features differentiated cells?
- specialized for specific function
- Owns specific cell fate
What is a zygote?
fully undifferentiated cell
What is embryogenesis?
process of development of an embryo, from fertilization of egg to a mature organism.
serie of complex cell divisions and differentiation that lead to formation of all the organ sand tissues in the body
phases of Embryogeniuses?
fertilization → cleavage → Gastrulation → organogenesis
types of cleavage?
- hol oblastic → entire division
- Meroblastic → part division
what is a Morula?
8- 32 cell stage → External lager of cells with a gap filled with fluid
External cells = extern eblasts
inner cells= inner cell mass
trophe blast or trophoderm
purpose mitosis?
asexual reproduction, cell growth and tissue repair
purpose Meiosis?
sexual reproduction
Stages mitosis?
prophase → Metaphase → anaphase and Telophase
what happens during and after fertilization?
2 polar bodies formed on outside of the oocyte
calcium trigger 2 mechanisms:
- Reignites cells cycles
- to avoid other sperm cell to enter the oocyte
What is Symmetry breakage?
entry of sperm determines axis of asymmetry, determines head or tail side.
anterial cell is bigger ( Aba and Abp cells) posteri or Cell smaller (EMS)
composition of a Blast ocy te?
inner cell mass and Trophoblast
Tropheblasts become?
placenta
Inner cell mass become?
potential to become any cell of the organism
pluripotent stem cell
what does the Hippo pathway regulate?
ICM or Trophoblast cell fate
Hippo pathway off ?
- low Cell density
- yap TF active in nucleus
- Target genes onn
- Target genes inhibit ICM cell fate (OCT 4 Not expressed )
- Blastomere = Trophoblast
Hippo pathway on?
- high cell density
- Yap TF inactive in cytoplasm
- Target genes don’t inhibit ICM → OCT4 expressed
- Blastomere = ICM
what does the Oct 4 regulat
ICM cell fate
what does Yap TF?
regulate target gene in nucleus
Hippo pathway in cancer?
activated when not supposed to can increase Carcinogenesis
