Beschreibungen

Examines the establishment of the germ layers and other cell lineages in the early embryo including details of cell movements during the beginning stages of primitive streak formation. Discusses patterns of gene expression during the development of such tissues as the limb bud, skeletal, muscle and the central nervous systems placing special emphasis on commitment to particular cell types. Although it concentrates on the mouse as an example of mammalian development--chick, amphibian and Drosophila embryogenesis are employed whenever these organisms are more applicable to the study of a particular problem.

Postimplantation Development in the Mouse Chairman: A. McLaren 1992 This book contains an in-depth analysis of the state of knowledge of postimplantation development in the mouse. It concentrates on the mouse as an example of mammalian development, but refers to chick, amphibian and Drosophila embryogenesis where these organisms are more amenable to the study of particular problems. The establishment of the germ layers and other cell lineages in the early embryo is described, including details of cell movements during the early stages of primitive streak formation. Patterns of gene expression during the development of several tissues—for example, the central nervous system, the skeletal and muscle systems, and limb bud—are discussed with particular emphasis on commitment to specific cell types. There are chapters on the roles of genes in intercellular signalling and on the need for direct interactions between epithelia and mesenchymal cells in the formation of the kidney and tooth rudiment. These studies all use a combination of classical genetic approaches, cell biology and detailed molecular techniques. Various methods for generating new mutations in known genes or at random are described and their comparative merits are evaluated. Finally, there are discussions of ways of amassing and disseminating the information that is becoming available on gene transcription in mouse embryogenesis, and also the mutated cell lines or mouse embryos themselves.
