These somites are regularly sized and spaced, and this careful organization is essential for the normal patterning of the spine.
The remaining dermomyotome forms the muscles of the spine, and the dermis in the skin.
The embryonic precursors to the adult eye, inner ear, brain (midbrain), forelimbs (equivalent of arms in human), and somites have been indicated.

 Stern, C
Thus, some somitic derivatives behave in a cell autonomous way concerning their positional information, while others are subject to cues from their environment.
However, if a similar experiment is conducted to investigate the nature of the muscles that develop, it is found that any somite will give rise to muscles appropriate for their new position.
The same procedure is "generic" and can be adapted easily for manipulation of newly-formed or older somites at stages 9-15, as well as for manipulations of the notochord, neural tube and other tissues at these stages.

 Expression of Muscle Regulatory Factors
Its expression is necessary for somitic muscle development in vertebrate embryos, whereas it appears to have no affect on head muscle development.
In the development of the vertebrate body plan, all of the skeletal muscle is derived from the somites.
The location and sequential expression of MRFs in somites is suggestive of a role played in myogenesis during embryonic development.

 somitogenesis
efnB2a is expressed in the posterior of presumptive somites and efnB2b in the anterior.
In the fused somites (fss-/-) mutant, Eph/ephrin expression is disrupted in the PSM and the receptor/ligand interface is lost.
Somite boundaries fail to form and epithelialization does not occur (Figure 1).

 Paraxis: A new bHLH protein expressed in paraxial mesoderm and developing somites
The expression of Paraxis in the somites preceded that of Scleraxis, which is expressed in the sclerotome during early development (approximately 10.5 days of development).
Relatively little is known about the genetic pathways that control the formation and patterning of mesoderm in mammals nor the pathways that direct the formation of somites with their subsequent subdivision into dermatome, myotome and sclerotome.
Paraxis is also expressed in the newly-formed epithelial somites.

 Crustacea Info
The subclass Phyllocarida is thought to represent the primitive malacostracan condition by having 7 instead of 6 abdominal somites (plus telson), and serially repeated, paddle-like, biramous (two branched) appendages.
The most primitive crustaceans have many somites with serially repeated paddle-like appendages.
Groups in this class generally have a body pattern of 5 head, 6 thoracic, and 4 abdominal somites (followed by a telson).

 Interactive Fly, Drosophila
In the vertebrate embryo, the lateral compartment of the somite gives rise to muscles of the limb and body wall and is patterned in response to lateral-plate-derived BMP4.
In later stages, wnt11 is expressed in various organs, such as the somites, particularly in the developing notochord.

The axial muscles of the body, including the tongue and extraocular muscles, are derived from the somitic mesoderm of the myotomes.
In poultry, for example, each somite makes specific contributions to the development of particular muscles.
Premyoblasts give rise to myoblasts that fuse to form muscle fiber precursors called myotubes.

 UNSW Embryology- Somitogenesis
Somites develop from the paraxial mesoderm and constitute the segmental pattern of the body.
After their formation, which depends upon cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions, the somites impose segmental pattern upon peripheral nerves and vascular primordia.
Virtually all tissues in close proximity to somites provide signals that are involved in induction or inhibition of particular differentiation pathways, but how these pathways are initiated is less clear.

 valproic acid
Barnes and his colleagues (1996b) found that when valproic acid was applied to the early chick embryo, these embryos developed fused somites or disorganized somite patterning.
Wholemount in situ hybridizations demonstrated that the somite anomalies correlated with the specific downregulation of Pax-1 mRNA in the regions affected by the drug (Figure 1).

Consequences of somite manipulation on the pattern of dorsal root ganglion development.
The regulation of epithelial-mesenchymal conversion leading to the onset of migration is among the most puzzling problems raised by morphogenesis, which also goes beyond developmental biology/neurobiology to concern the stability of the histiotypic state and its disruption in metastasis.
F-spondin, expressed in somite regions avoided by neural crest cells, mediates inhibition of distinct somitic domains to neural crest migration.

Somites are transient epithelialized structures that form repeatedly from the unsegmented presomitic mesoderm (PSM) in the tailbud of vertebrate embryos.
Later on they differentiate into muscle, skin, and vertebrae.
Several components of this pathway show cyclic transcription in the PSM.

In vertebrates the somites are originally found adjacent to the notochord and then give rise to such things as ribs and skeletal muscles.
The mesooderm specifically gives rise to the following structures in humans:
Earlier in development the mesoderm also gives rise to the somites, from which these later structures develop.

 KCL: Baljinder Mankoo
Our studies to date have revealed that separately Mox1 and Mox2 play a critical role in the differentiation of cartilage and muscle derivatives of somites, respectively (Figure 3).
Crucially we have discovered that Mox genes function synergistically upstream of several, distinct genetic pathways that have been shown to be important for somite formation, epithelialisation, anterior-posterior and dorsal-ventral patterning, and differentiation of the different somite-derived tissues.
The overall aim of our work is to investigate genetic controls that regulate the development of the somites of the vertebrate embryo.

We are using the zebrafish as a model system to study somitogenesis and more generally to study how the sum of the function of many individual genes gives rise to higher levels of organization such as the dynamic yet stable cell behavior inherent in multicellular patterns/structures.
Somites are the most prominent segmented structure in the zebrafish embryo.
We have shown that the stabilization of the oscillations requires a “wavefront” acting through the fused somites gene.

 Somite formation: sequential conversion of a periodic pattern in time into a periodic pattern in space
The number of periodic structures (somites) in which a particular HOX gene is active depends on the number of such stop points.
Somites are the most obviously segmented structure in vertebrates.
Meanwhile it has turned out that not every pair of half-somites is characterized by a particular HOX gene activation.

 Somites and Intraembryonic Coelum
Somites are rectangular shaped pairs of paraxial mesoderm that form on either side of the notochord.
Each somite will give rise to the axial skeleton at that level, plus its accompanying muscles and dermis.
As the embryo is elongating, cavititations appear within the embryonic mesoderm that grow larger and eventually become continuous with the extraembryonic coelom to forming the intraembryonic coelom (see below).

The fate map of the primitive streak in chick and quail embryo presented here will serve as basic data for studies on mesoderm development with embryo manipulation, especially for transplantation experiments between chick and quail embryos.
The thoracic and the lumbar somites were shown to begin to ingress at the 5 somite-stage and 10 somite-stage in a chick embryo, and 6 somite-stage and 9 somite-stage in a quail embryo, respectively.
ABSTRACT Developmental fates of cells emigrating from the primitive streak were traced by a fluorescent dye DiI both in chick and in quail embryos from the fully grown streak stage to 12-somite stage, focusing on the development of mesoderm and especially on the timing of ingression of each level of somitic mesoderm.
