It gives rise to the pronephros and eventually to the rest of the kidney . A nephrotome is an obsolete term used to describe rounded mesodermal portions of the forming pronephros. In old texts the pronephros is described as forming through the fusion of multiple nephrotomes. Modern visualization methods such as scanning electron microscopy , in situ hybridization and confocal microscopy, combined with the simple approach of peeling off the epidermis to see the forming kidney, have shown that this is not the case. Nephric mesenchyme separates from the intermediate mesoderm as a single elongated primordia. As this primordia begins to undergo epithelialization the anterior portions of the pronephros form rounded protrusions, which then later become the dorsal branches of the pronephros that link to nephrostomes distinct from nephrotomes . These rounded bumps are probably the structures observed in histological sections that are referred to as nephrotomes. Nephro s tomes are thin ciliated funnels that link pronephric nephrons to the ceolom, and are not related to nephrotomes.

  1. Cutaneous structure development

    Unreferenced date December 2007 Cutaneous structures arise from the Epidermis skin epidermis and include a variety of features such as hair, feathers, claws and nails. During embryogenesis, the epidermis splits into two layers the periderm which is lost and the Stratum germinativum basal layer . The basal layer is a stem cell layer and through asymmetrical divisions, becomes the source of skin cells throughout life. It is maintained as a stem cell layer through an autocrine signal, Transforming growth factor TGF a , and through paracrine signal FGF7 aka keratinocyte growth factor KGF produced by the dermis below the basal cells. In mice, over expression of these factors leads to an overproduction of granule cells and thick skin. Hair and feathers are formed in a regular pattern and it is believed to be the result of a reaction diffusion system. This reaction diffusion system combines an activator, Sonic hedgehog , with an inhibitor, BMP4 or BMP2, to form clusters of cells in a regular pattern. Sonic hedgehog expressing epidermal cells induce the condensation of cells in the mesoderm. The clusters of mesodermal cells signal back to the epidermis to form the appropriate structure for that position. BMP signals from the epidermis inhibit the formation of placodes in nearby ectoderm. It is believed that the mesoderm defines the pattern. The epidermis instructs the mesodermal cells to condense and then the mesoderm instructs the epidermis of what structure to make through a series of reciprocal inductions. Transplantation experiments involving frog and newt epidermis indicated that the mesodermal signals are conserved between species but the epidermal response is species specific meaning that the mesoderm instructs the epidermis of its position and the epidermis uses this information to make a specific structure.

  1. Enterocoely

    Enterocoely adjective forms enterocoelic or enterocoelous is a process by which embryonic development embryos develop . In enterocoely, a mesoderm is formed in a developing embryo , in which the coelom forms from pouches pinched off of the digestive tract also known as the embryonic gut, or archenteron . This type of coelom formation occurs in deuterostome animals, which for this reason are also known as enterocoelomates . Enterocoelous development begins once the embryo reaches the gastrula phase of development. At this point, there are two layers of cells the ectoderm outermost and the endoderm innermost layers. The mesoderm middle layer begins to form as two pockets of tissue one above the endoderm, and one below are formed via folding of the endoderm. These pockets begin to grow larger, and as they do so, they extend towards each other. When the two pockets of cells meet, the mesoderm is formed a complete layer of tissue right in between the endoderm and ectoderm layers. This then leads to the formation of a coelom . Enterocoelous development is the stage of embryological development of deuterostomes in which the coelom forms. The stage starts with the gastrula as the archenteron forms, pockets of migrating cells also form, creating another layer between the endoderm and ectoderm , the mesoderm . These pockets gradually expand to form the coelom. An exception to this form of coelom development is the subphylum vertebrata which are considered deuterostomes but exhibit schizocoelous coelom formation. In protostomes, the body cavity is formed by schizocoely . developmental biology stub See also Schizocoely External links http www.mhhe.com biosci pae glossaryd.html PAE Virtual Glossary Category Embryology es Enterocelia fr Ent roc lie it Enterocelia pt Celoma enteroc lico ...   more details
