Abstract:
A wide range of hereditary diseases affecting two or more ectodermally derived tissues together are referred to as ectodermal dysplasias (EDs). The most frequently impacted ectodermal derivatives are the teeth, nails, sweat glands, and hair. The mucous membranes of the mouth and nose, lips, eyes, ears, and other ectodermal structures could also be impacted. During embryonic development, the ectoderm forms the outermost layer of the primary germ layers that give rise to the several structures that are commonly affected in ED. As a result, depending on the array and severity of the anomaly, ED p

Abstract:
Teratomas are germ cell tumors consisting of somatic tissue derived from two or three germinal layers (ectodermal, endodermal, and mesodermal). Teratomas can be classified as mature teratomas and immature teratomas. Teratomas usually arise in the gonads but can also be extra-gonadal. Extragonadal teratomas can occur in the anterior mediastinum, retroperitoneum, pineal, and anterior suprasellar. The general incidence of teratomas is sacrococcygeal 40%, ovarian 25%, testicular 12%, brain 5%, and others including neck and mediastinum 1%.

Abstract:
During embryonic germ layer development, cells communicate with each other and their environment to ensure proper lineage specification and tissue development. Connexin (Cx) proteins facilitate direct cell–cell communication through gap junction channels. While previous reports suggest that gap junctional intercellular communication may contribute to germ layer formation, there have been limited comprehensive expression analyses or genetic ablation studies on Cxs during human pluripotent stem cell (PSC) germ lineage specification. We screened the mRNA profile and protein expression patterns of

Abstract:
Immature teratoma is a malignant germ cell tumour constituted of divergent mature and immature tissues along with a characteristic component of primitive neuro-ectoderm. The malignant, ovarian neoplasm demonstrates cellular genesis from embryonal germ cell layers denominated as ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm and is comprised of variably quantifiable mature and immature tissues.

Abstract:
Pattern formation in Drosophila involves a cascade of maternal and zygotic factors which are spatially restricted in the blastoderm embryo. Here we show that the Drosophila gene huckebein (hkb), a member of the gap gene class of segmentation genes, is not only required for suppression of segmentation in the terminal regions of the embryo but also to spatially restrict germ layer formation at the beginning of gastrulation. hkb encodes a Sp1/egr-like zinc finger protein, likely to be a transcription factor. Its absence in hkb mutants causes the ectodermal and mesodermal primordia to expand at th

The distribution of cytokeratins and vimentin intermediate filaments in the first 48 h of chick development has been determined using immunofluorescent labelling. During formation of the germ layers, cytokeratin expression is associated with the appearance of an integral epithelium (ectoderm), whereas vimentin expression is associated with cells that detach and migrate from this epithelium to form endoderm and mesoderm. Subsequently, vimentin persists in the endoderm and mesoderm and the tissues derived therefrom, such as the somites and developing heart, throughout the period of study. The ap

We characterized the pattern of gap junctional communication in the 7.5-d mouse embryo (at the primitive streak or gastrulation stage). First we examined the pattern of dye coupling by injecting the fluorescent tracers, Lucifer Yellow or carboxyfluorescein, and monitoring the extent of dye spread. These studies revealed that cells within all three germ layers are well coupled, as the injected dye usually spread rapidly from the site of impalement into the neighboring cells. The dye spread, however, appeared to be restricted at specific regions of the embryo. Further thick section histological

Connexin43 (Cx43) is a member of the family of channel-forming proteins that make up the gap junction and are believed to provide pathways for cell-cell exchange of developmental signals. We have used immunofluorescence and confocal microscopy to characterize the patterns of distribution of Cx43 in postimplantation mouse embryos representing stages of development extending through gastrulation and the major period of organogenesis [through 13.5 days post coitum (dpc)]. We find that Cx43 is expressed early after implantation by the undifferentiated, pluripotent cells of the primitive embryonic

Abstract:
During gastrulation in the mouse, the pluripotent embryonic ectoderm cells form the three primary germ layers, ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm. Little is known about the mechanisms responsible for these processes, but evidence from previous studies in amphibians, as well as expression studies in mammals, suggest that signalling molecules of the Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF) family may play a role in gastrulation. To determine whether this might be the case for FGF-5 in the mouse embryo, we carried out RNA in situ hybridization studies to determine when and where in the early postimplantation

Abstract:
Germ-layer formation during gastrulation is both a fundamental step of development and a paradigm for tissue formation and remodeling. However, the cellular and molecular basis of germ-layer segregation is poorly understood, mostly because of the lack of direct in vivo observations. We used mosaic zebrafish embryos to investigate the formation of the endoderm. High-resolution live imaging and functional analyses revealed that endodermal cells reach their characteristic innermost position through an active, oriented, and actin-based migration dependent on Rac1, which contrasts with the previous

Endoderm that forms the respiratory and digestive tracts is a sheet of approximately 500–1000 cells around the distal cup of an E7.5 mouse embryo. Within 2 days, endoderm folds into a primitive gut tube from which numerous organs will bud. To characterize the signals involved in the developmental specification of this early endoderm, we have employed an in vitro assay using germ layer explants and show that adjacent germ layers provide soluble, temporally specific signals that induce organ-specific gene expression in endoderm. Furthermore, we show that FGF4 expressed in primitive streak-mesode

Testicular teratoma is classified among testicular germ cells tumors. While its incidence is relatively low among animals, in 129/Sv mice is presented in relatively high prevalence. It has been revealed that murine teratoma arises from genetically altered germ cells that undergo malignant transformation during embryogenesis. A point mutation on the 129/Sv genome has been incriminated for failing to regulate normal pathways in germ cell development leading in high teratocarcinogenic risk.

Immediately prior to gastrulation the murine embryo consists of an outer layer of visceral endoderm (VE) and an inner layer of ectoderm. Differentiation and migration of the ectoderm then occurs to produce the three germ layers (ectoderm, embryonic endoderm and mesoderm) from which the fetus is derived. An indication that the VE might have a critical role in this process emerged from studies of Hnf-4(−/−) mouse embryos which fail to undergo normal gastrulation. Since expression of the transcription factor HNF-4 is restricted to the VE during this phase of development, we proposed that HNF-4-re
