Q

What is a neural crest?

A
  • transient, multipotent, migratory cells that differentiate into many tissues and organs
  • start as 1 thing (neural crest) and go to many types
  • epithelial to mesenchymal transition

91
Q

What is the key part of neuralation?

A
  • different transcription factors work in different areas

  • BMP is morphogen that activates Pax7
  • sonic hedgehog activates gli and represses pax 7 at high concentrations
  • no distinct boundaries
92
Q

What is neuralation?

A
  • folding in vertebrates which transforms neural plate and neural tube, embryo is called neurula
  • uses lamelpodia and fillipodia to bring cells together to form junctions
93

How does neuralation happen?

A

through hollow dorsal nere chord

94
Q

What are the major features of chordates?

A
  • notochord
  • pharyngeal stilts (pouches and arches)
  • endostyle (thryroid)
95
Q

How does the rostral nervous system form?

A
  • thickening of neural plate

  • nodal chord causes bending and hinge point
  • elevation of neural chord then forms DL hinge
  • forms 3 total hinge points
  • medial ONC uses nodal chord, side ones dont
  • after hinges form cells come in contact and form hollow tube
96
Q

How does secondary neurulation happen?

A
  • forms caudal nervous system
  • rosettes form to close sides
97
Q

How to hinge points form?

A
  • notochord signaling inhibits noggin by limiting BMP repression
  • notochord and noggin work together to contract where noggin is but there is no repression where noggin is repressed
  • sonic hedgehog goes to gli which goes to the transcription factor
  • during closure the cells express lamellipodia and filipodia together
  • as they connect they form adherins junctions through e cadherin
98
Q

How is sonic hedgehog expressed?

A
  • ventral to dorsal
99
Q

How do roe and rac move?

A

  • after the ectoderm seals the neural tube is enclose and high BMP is expressed
102
Q

What happens if BMPS are hyperactive?

A
  • failure of neural tube to close and spina bifida
  • create hingepoint failure because sonic hedge hog can’t overcome BMP
103
Q

What happens if there are too little BMPs?

A
  • cant activate SMAD so there is an overexagerated hinge point
104
Q
