3 Embryology and Development
BIOL 6505 − INTRODUCTION TO FETAL MEDICINE 3. EMBRYOLOGY AND DEVELOPMENT Arlet G. Kurkchubasche, M.D. INTRODUCTION Embryology – the field of study that pertains to the developing organism/human Basic embryology –usually taught in the chronologic sequence of events. These events are the basis for understanding the congenital anomalies that we encounter in the fetus, and help explain the relationships to other organ system concerns. Below is a synopsis of some of the critical steps in embryogenesis from the anatomic rather than molecular basis. These concepts will be more intuitive and evident in conjunction with diagrams and animated sequences. This text is a synopsis of material provided in Langman’s Medical Embryology, 9th ed. First week – ovulation to fertilization to implantation Fertilization restores 1) the diploid number of chromosomes, 2) determines the chromosomal sex and 3) initiates cleavage. Cleavage of the fertilized ovum results in mitotic divisions generating blastomeres that form a 16-cell morula. The dense morula develops a central cavity and now forms the blastocyst, which restructures into 2 components. The inner cell mass forms the embryoblast and outer cell mass the trophoblast. Consequences for fetal management: Variances in cleavage, i.e. splitting of the zygote at various stages/locations - leads to monozygotic twinning with various relationships of the fetal membranes. Cleavage at later weeks will lead to conjoined twinning. Second week: the week of twos – marked by bilaminar germ disc formation. Commences with blastocyst partially embedded in endometrial stroma Trophoblast forms – 1) cytotrophoblast – mitotic cells that coalesce to form 2) syncytiotrophoblast – erodes into maternal tissues, forms lacunae which are critical to development of the uteroplacental circulation. -

The structure of the pronephros and development of mesonephric kidney in Russian sturgeon larvae, Acipenser gueldenstaedtii Brandt at different stages of early postembryonic development (from hatching to 14 days), were studied with histological and electronic microscopy methods. The larval pronephros is represented by the system of bilaterally located pronephric tubules with ciliated nephrostomes and funnels and exog- enous single glomus, which is not integrated directly into pronephric tubules and located in the pronephric chamber. The glomus is positioned below the dorsal aorta and vascular- ized by its capillaries. The glomus has the same features of the thin structure that are typical of and necessary for the function of a filtering organ. The structure of the prone- phros in acipenserids is discussed and compared with teleosts and amphibians. Histogen- esis of the mesonephric kidney is observed during the period of pronephros functioning; it is complete by the time the larvae transfer to exogenous feeding. At this moment, the pronephros undergoes significant structural degradation. -

Understanding Paraxial Mesoderm Development and Sclerotome Specification for Skeletal Repair Shoichiro Tani 1,2, Ung-Il Chung2,3, Shinsuke Ohba4 and Hironori Hojo2,3
Tani et al. Experimental & Molecular Medicine (2020) 52:1166–1177 https://doi.org/10.1038/s12276-020-0482-1 Experimental & Molecular Medicine REVIEW ARTICLE Open Access Understanding paraxial mesoderm development and sclerotome specification for skeletal repair Shoichiro Tani 1,2, Ung-il Chung2,3, Shinsuke Ohba4 and Hironori Hojo2,3 Abstract Pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) are attractive regenerative therapy tools for skeletal tissues. However, a deep understanding of skeletal development is required in order to model this development with PSCs, and for the application of PSCs in clinical settings. Skeletal tissues originate from three types of cell populations: the paraxial mesoderm, lateral plate mesoderm, and neural crest. The paraxial mesoderm gives rise to the sclerotome mainly through somitogenesis. In this process, key developmental processes, including initiation of the segmentation clock, formation of the determination front, and the mesenchymal–epithelial transition, are sequentially coordinated. The sclerotome further forms vertebral columns and contributes to various other tissues, such as tendons, vessels (including the dorsal aorta), and even meninges. To understand the molecular mechanisms underlying these developmental processes, extensive studies have been conducted. These studies have demonstrated that a gradient of activities involving multiple signaling pathways specify the embryonic axis and induce cell-type-specific master transcription factors in a spatiotemporal manner. Moreover, applying the knowledge of mesoderm development, researchers have attempted to recapitulate the in vivo development processes in in vitro settings, using mouse and human PSCs. In this review, we summarize the state-of-the-art understanding of mesoderm development and in vitro modeling of mesoderm development using PSCs. We also discuss future perspectives on the use of PSCs to generate skeletal tissues for basic research and clinical applications. -

Quaggin CHAPTER OUTLINE MAMMALIAN KIDNEY DEVELOPMENT, 2 MOLECULAR GENETICS OF MODEL SYSTEMS TO STUDY KIDNEY NEPHROGENESIS, 22 DEVELOPMENT, 8 GENETIC ANALYSIS OF MAMMALIAN KIDNEY DEVELOPMENT, 15 KEY POINTS • The development of the kidney relies on reciprocal signaling and inductive interactions between neighboring cells. • Epithelial cells that comprise the tubular structures of the kidney are derived from two distinct cell lineages: the ureteric epithelia lineage that branches and gives rise to collecting ducts and the nephrogenic mesenchyme lineage that undergoes mesenchyme to epithelial transition to form connecting tubules, distal tubules, the loop of Henle, proximal tubules, parietal epithelial cells, and podocytes. • Nephrogenesis and nephron endowment requires an epigenetically regulated balance between nephron progenitor self-renewal and epithelial differentiation. • The timing of incorporation of nephron progenitor cells into nascent nephrons predicts their positional identity within the highly patterned mature nephron. • Stromal cells and their derivatives coregulate ureteric branching morphogenesis, nephrogenesis, and vascular development. • Endothelial cells track the development of the ureteric epithelia and establish the renal vasculature through a combination of vasculogenic and angiogenic processes. • Collecting duct epithelia have an inherent plasticity enabling them to switch between principal and intercalated cell identities. MAMMALIAN KIDNEY DEVELOPMENT The filtration function of the kidneys is accomplished by basic units called nephrons (Fig. 1.1). Humans on average have 1 million nephrons per adult kidney but the range of ANATOMIC OVERVIEW OF THE 4 MAMMALIAN KIDNEY total nephrons is highly variable across human populations. Each mouse kidney may contain up to 12,000–16,000 nephrons The kidney is a sophisticated, highly vascularized organ that depending on the strain.5 This wide range in nephron number plays a central role in overall body homeostasis. -
Mesoderm Divided Into Three Main Types - Paraxial (Somite) - Intermediate - Lateral (Somatic and Splanchnic)
Mesoderm Divided into three main types - Paraxial (somite) - Intermediate - Lateral (somatic and splanchnic) Fates of Mesoderm Paraxial - Dermis of skin - Axial Skeleton - Axial and limb muscles/tendons Intermediate - Urogenital system (kidney and gonads) Lateral - Somatic inner body wall (connective), pelvis, limb bones (parietal) - Splanchnic heart and vasculature (visceral) Paraxial (somitic) Mesoderm Head Region - Head mesoderm + neural crest forms: skeleton, muscles, and conntective tissue of the face and skull Trunk Region - Forms somites, which will produce: muscle, bone and dermis Two Cell Types: Epithelial: regular, simple sheet of cells, immobile Mesenchyma: irregular and migratory These two cell types can undergo transformation into one another. Somitogenisis (Somite Formation) Somites form progressively from cranial to caudal end of the notochord in a sequential fashion. One closes before the next forms. Somite Differentiation The somite splits into the epithelial dermamyotome (dermis/muscle) and the messenchymal sclerotome (skeletal). The somite is all paraxial mesoderm. Somite location determines the fate of its associates derma/myo/sclerotomes. Intermediate Mesoderm Urogenital system: - Kidneys - Gonads - Reproductive Duct Systems Runs alongside the paraxial mesoderm. Urogenital System Along mesonephric duct: - Pronephros, mesonephros, and metanephros - Pronephros fall away as gonad develops on ventral-medial side of mesonephros. - Metanephrogenic mesenchyme gives rise to kidney. The mesonephric duct will become the Wolffian duct forming at the nephric bud. The Mullerian duct forms via an invagination on the dorsal side of the nephric duct. The gonad will degenerate one of the two ducts depending on the hormones it produces. XX degenerates Wolffian duct – no testosterone, anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) not produced, and Mullerian duct can develop in addition to female reproductive organs (ovaries, vagina) XY degenerates Mullerian duct – testosterone, AMH produced, Wolffian duct continues as male reproductive organs (testes, penis) develop. -
Renal Development
RENAL DEVELOPMENT Jon Barasch M.D., Ph.D. Telephone: 305-1890 e-mail: [email protected] SUGGESTED READING: Larsen, 3rd edition, pp 265 (first three paragraphs) - 266, 268-276 and figure 10-10 LEARNING OBJECTIVES: You should be able to: 1. Describe the three kidneys that are produced during development and know what happens to each one. 2. Explain what is meant by ‘reciprocal induction’ and why it poses problems in interpreting experiments in developing kidney. 3. Describe the stages of nephron formation from the renal vesicle. 4. Discuss the regulators of mesenchymal to epithelial transition in the intermediate mesoderm and metanephric mesenchyme and name three molecules mediating conversion. 5. Describe branching morphogenesis and name the three patterns in the developing metanephros. 6. Discuss three key important ligands and their receptors. 7. Discuss the classification of congenital renal abnormalities that are associated with urological abnormalities and the possible underlying mechanisms for their association. SUMMARY: The urogenital system derives from mesenchymal cells by a process of conversion to epithelia. The development of the kidney relies on three mechanisms of epithelial morphogenesis. 1. Some newborn epithelia migrate extensively (Wolffian duct), 2. some undergo branching morphogenesis (ureteric bud) and 3. some produce highly segmented tubules (nephrons). GLOSSARY: Angiotensin II: your favorite vasoconstrictor and regulator of proximal tubule reclamation of NaCl and water by receptor type 1. Receptor type-2 modulates cell growth and seems to play a role in congenital abnormalities. Arcade: a tubule of ureteric bud that induces a few nephrons simultaneously. The nephrons join to a common drainage called a connecting tubule that feeds into the ureteric’s collecting duct. -
