Reproduction (FA) Flashcards
(110 cards)
SHH
found at base of limbs
anterior-posterior patterns + CNS devpt
mut: holoprosencephaly
Wnt 7
found at apical ectodermal ridge (at distal end of limb)
ventral-dorsal patterns
FGF
found at apical mesodermal ridge (at distal end of limb)
contributes to limb lengthening via mesoderm mitosis
mut: GOF in achondroplasia
HOX
codes for TFs
allows for proper segmental placement of appendiges- cranio/caudal
mut: appendages where they shouldnt be
Early Embryonic devpt: within week one happenings?
day 6: blastocyst sticks
Early Embryonic devpt: within week 2 happenings?
2 layers- epiblast and hypoblast
“bilaminar disk”
Early Embryonic devpt: within week 3-8 happenings?
neural tube and organogenesis
teratogen sensitive!!!
Early Embryonic devpt: within week 3 happenings?
gastrulation. The epiblast invaginates to form primitive streak–> becomes ectoderm, mesoderm, endoderm
notochord from mesoderm
neural plate from ectoderm
Early Embryonic devpt: within week 4 happenings?
4 limbs, 4 chambers
limb buds
heart beats
neural tube closes
