Q

Somite formation week 4: sclerotome forms?

Dermomyotome forms?

A

Axial skeletal tissues (vertebrae and ribs) — becomes mesenchymal and travels around notochord and neural tube

Dermis and muscle tissues — elongates

Q

Each somite corresponds to what?

How do the nerves and muscle blocks cross the bone?

A

A block of bone (sclerotome), a block of muscle (myotome) and spinal nerve

Bony elements resegment (each vertebra consists of cranial and caudal halves of two sclerotomes- why we have 8 cervical spinal nerves)

Q

A-P axis is defined by?

Significance?

Q

Are quads ventral or dorsal?

A

Quads are ventral but developmentally dorsal (rotated- aligns limb parasagittally)

17
Q

Paraxial mesoderm will form

A

Sclerotome (future bone) and dermamyotome (dermis and muscle tissue)

18
Q

Function of Shh and noggin

A

Secreted from ventral neural tube and notochord to transition epithelium to mesenchyme

19
Q

What does PAX1 do

A

Initiates chondrogenesis and formation of vertebrae

20
Q

Function of FGF (and retinoic acid/WNTs)

Why is FGF8 significant

A

Create pattern of limb regionalization

If something happened to the AER, FGF8 is powerful enough to continue limb growth and development

21
Q

What will happen if you have something wrong at the AER

A

Limb will not fully develop

22
Q

Overactive ZPA will cause

A

Mirror image limb duplication (ZPA produces Shh)

23
Q

Direction of development caused by the following:

  1. Retinoic acid
  2. FGF8
  3. Shh
  4. WNT
  5. BMP
A
  1. Proximal
  2. Distal
  3. Anterior/posterior
  4. Dorsal
  5. Ventral
24
Q

Function of BMP

A

Stops limb bud outgrowth (when finished)

25
Q

Concentration of what needs to be low in order for somites to form?

What is anatagonistic to this

A

FGF needs to be low

Retinoic acid

26
Q

AER produces which type of elongation?

A

Proximal to distal (longitudinal limb growth)

27
Q

What is the progress zone

A

Mesodermal cells underlying the AER that make the limb elongate (controls dorsal ventral axis growth) (controlled by Wnt genes - expressed in dorsal part of progress zone)

28
Q

Where is ZPA located

What is it important for

A

Below AER along proximal posterior limb bud

Anterior/posterior patterning (radius ulna limb growth)

29
Q

Loss of ZPA ?

Upregulation of ZPA ?

A

Loss of ulnar digits

Additional posterior elements; concentration of Shh will be high (extra fingers)

30
Q

Where in the ZPA is Shh highest

A

Posterior side
