QuestionAnswer
What happens first in Neuralation of Amphibians? the embryo elongates and a flattened region of the dorsal epithelium (neural plate) appears on its dorsal surface
What happens 2nd in Neuralation of Amphibians? A neural groove is evident along the midline of the plate, with a widened depression at the anterior end.
What happens 3rd in Neuralation of Amphibians? The lateral edges of the plate become prominent and fold in (neural fold) toward the midline of the embryo .
What happens last in Neuralation of Amphibians? At the end of neurulation, the neural folds become contiguous along most of the dorsal midline and begin to fuse.
What happens in first phase of neurulation of Amphibians? formation of the neural plate and it concludes with the formation of the keyhole stage
What happens in 2nd phase of neurulation of Amphibians? the closure of the neural plate into a neural tube
What is bottle cell in neurulation of amphibians? 1 Bottle cells appear at time of neurulation 2 Change in shape of epithelial to bottle cell is one of driving forces for event 3 Cytoskeletal changes lead to bottle cell shape
Cells undergo ______ with alignment of their microtubules, then contraction of the ____ filaments at the apex of cell form ____shape. columnarization, actin, bottle shape
Inhibition of F-actin of microtubules can inhibit what? neurulation
F-actin acts like strings to pull what? apex of cell
F-actin can be inhibited by what? Cytochalasin
Microtubules elongate cell to give what? polarity for movement
Microtubules can be inhibited by? Colchicine
The neural plate is also shaped by what? convergent extension
What is convergent extension? during neurulation, a central posterior region of nueral plate undergoes dramatic elongation
What region undergoes dramatic elongation? Notoplate
What two process contribute to generating the keyhole shape? Both columnarization and cell intercalation
The convergence and extension behavior originates in ____ and are transmitted to ___ tissue. DIMZ and adjacent tissues
The induction of convergance and extension behavior is associated with neural induction also known as? primary embryonic induction
At the neural fold, the neural ___cells crawl under the ___. Neural plate cells, epidermis
T or F: The isolated plate rolls into a tube only when the margin is present True
What three things are also responsible in neural tube closure? Apical constriction, rapid anteroposterior extension, and cell crawling.
In amphibians, Neural plate is associated with? Columnarization and convergent extension
In amphibians, Neural tube closure is associated with? Apical constriction, rapid anteroposterior extension, and cell crawling
During gastrulation, Nieuwkoop center cells remain? Endodermal
During gastrulation, the cells of the organizer becomes __________ and migrate underneath the _______. dorsal mesoderm and dorsal ectoderm
During gastrulation, the tissue that forms the dorsal lip of blastopore and moves into embryo is called? Chordamesoderm
What will chordamesoderm form? the notochord
Why is the chordamesoderm important? It induces proper development of overlying ectodermal tissue into neural tube.
What does notochord serve as? internal support structure for body
In mammals, notochord forms by invagination of what? the mesoderm
In birds and mammals, the cells at midline of neural plate are called? Medial hinge point (MHP) cells
The notochord induces what cells to decrease their height and become wedge-shaped? MHP cells
What cells anchor to the surface of ectoderm of neural folds? Dorsolateral hinge points (DLHPs) cells
____increase height and become wedge-shaped. DLHPs
The pushing of epidermis toward center and furrowing of neural tube creates what? Neural folds
The key region is the _____. It thickens and folds to produce the neural folds and neural groove before closing to form the neural tube. Neural plate
How is the neural tube formed? By separation from the surface ectoderm
What is this separation of neural tube mediated by? the expression of different cell adhesion molecules
The cells that become neural tube stop expressing ____, and instead synthesize ___and ____. E cadherin, N cadherin and N-CAM
If one side of an embryo is injected with N-cadherin mRNA, is there separation of neural tube? No. N-cadherin is expressed in epidermal cells and presumptive neural tube.
T or F: The closure of neural tube does not occur simultaneously throughout ectoderm. True.
What are the two ways of forming a neural tube? Primary and secondary nuerulation
What is primary neurulation? the cells surrounding the neural plate direct the neural plate cells to proliferate, invaginate, and pinch off from the surface to form a hollow tube.
What is secondary neurulation? the neural tube arises from a solid cord of cells that sinks into the embryo and subsequently hollows out to form a hollow tube.
In birds and mammals, what region of the neural tube is constructed by primary neurulation? The rostral (anterior) region
In birds and mammals, what region of the neural tube is made by secondary neurulation? The caudal (posterior) region
The anterior portion of the neural tube forms what? The BRAIN
The posterior portion forms what? The SPINAL CORD
How was regional specificity of induction demonstrated? by implanting different regions of the archenteron roof into early gastrulae.
What did the resulting embryos develop in regional specificity? secondary dorsal structures.
Dorsal blastopore lips from early gastrulae transplanted into other ____ gastrulae induced secondary ______. early, heads.
Dorsal blastopore lips from later gastrulas transplanted into ______ gastrulae induced the secondary ______. early, tails.
What happens if ectodermal cells are exposed to BMP? They assume an epidermal fate
The epidermal face is avoided in drsal side of embryo by what? Local activity of the organizer molecules
All of the organizer molecules bind to BMPs preventing their binding to what? BMP receptors
In this way, the ____is rescued from becoming epidermis. Neuroectoderm
What molecules secreted by organizer that induce head structures? Cerberus, Frzb, Dickkopf, IGFs
What is ceberus? a secreted protein that induces the most anterior head
what is Frzb? small, soluble form of Frizzled, the Wnt receptor, and is capable of binding Wnt proteins in solution
WHat is dickkopf? protein that appears to interact directly with Wnt proteins extracellularly.
what is IGFs? inhibit the RTK cascade that interfere with the induction pathway of both BMP and Wnt.
The trunk inducer involves what protein? Xwnt8
What is Xwnt8? primary protein involved in posteriorizing the neuronal tube
A gradient of Xwnt8 is highest in the _________ and absent in the _______ posterior, and absent in anterior
_____ and ______ seem also involved in posteriorizing the neuronal tube in concentration manner. FGFs and Retinoic acid
What is the double gradient model? A gradient of BMP expression specifies the frog dorsal-ventral axis, while a gradient of Wnt proteins specifies the anterior-posterior axis.
