Topic: Gastrula



  
 JOHANNES HOLTFRETER
The thesis subject was the development of the liver and pancreas of the frog embryo, and Holtfreter commented that this subject was not of great interest to Spemann or himself.
During this time, he shared a laboratory bench with Hilde Mangold (nee Pröscholdt), who was in the process of discovering the amphibian gastrula organizer, a discovery later acknowledged in the award of the 1935 Nobel Prize to Spemann.
• Analysis of the three kinds of region-specific morphogenetic activities of cells in the amphibian gastrula and the integration of this information into a unified view of gastrulation (1942-43).

 Gastrula - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The gastrula phase of embryonic development is seen in all animals except the sponges.
1 - blastula, 2 - gastrula; orange - ectoderm, red - endoderm.

After laborious and careful research (though this stage is not generally admitted in the same sense as the previous one), a fourth common stage was discovered, and given the name of the Coelomula.
To give a few examples, we can infer from the fact that the human ovum is a simple cell that the first ancestor of our species was a tiny unicellular being, something like the amoeba.
This is the gastrula (stomach) stage, and the process of its formation is called gastrulation.

 ZFIN Gastrula Period Description
Hence, the embryonic shield, in terms of its inductive role demonstrated in these experiments, its dorsal marginal position in the embryo, and the fates it eventually generates, is broadly equivalent to the amphibian organizer region of Spemann.
The hypoblast gives rise to derivatives classically ascribed to both the mesoderm and endoderm; Thisse et al.
Just as there was no blastocoele during the blastula period, there is no archenteron in the gastrula.

The self differentiating transplant and the induced host structures together formed a well integrated set of secondary axial and paraxial structures, with its own polarity and bilateral symmetry, approaching a complete secondary embryo at the ventral region of the zoo embryo.

GROUP REPORTS Durston (NIDB) Signalling studies We have investigated signalling pathways required for constructing the posterior part of the vertebrate central nervous system (CNS).
Investigations of vertebrate axial patterning have emphasised the importance of signals from dorsal mesoderm in the gastrula.
The dorsal mesodermal patch of Hox gene expression then comes to be overlain by a matching patch of neurectodermal Hox expression (same gene) This suggests that Hox genes expressed in dorsal mesoderm may induce their own expression in neurectoderm.They may regulate, or even mediate, transformation signals.

 NDI Terminology - gastrula
In human embryos the gastrula stage occurs during the third week, as the embryonic disc becomes trilaminar.
The simplest type consists of two layers, the ectoderm and the mesentoderm, and of two cavities, one lying between the ectoderm and the endoderm; the other (the archenteron) formed by invagination so as to lie within the entoderm and having an opening (the blastopore).

Nevertheless, it is not difficult to reduce the whole cenogenetic or disturbed development of this amphigastrula to the true palingenetic formation of the archigastrula of the amphioxus.
With the formation of the primitive gut our frog-embryo has reached the gastrula stage, though it is clear that this cenogenetic amphibian gastrula is very different from the real palingenetic gastrula we have considered (Figures 1.30 to 1.36).
In the growth of this hooded gastrula we cannot sharply mark off the various stages which we distinguish successively in the bell-gastrula as morula and gastrula.

When this process (gastrulation) becomes visible as an indentation, the developing embryo is termed a gastrula (9).
