摘要: During gastrulation in vertebrates, mesenchymal cells at the anterior end of presomitic mesoderm (PSM) periodically compact, transiently epithelialize and detach from posterior PSM to form somites. In prevailing clock-and-wavefront model somitogenesis, periodic gene expression, particularly Notch Wnt, interacts with an FGF8-based thresholding mechanism determine cell fates. However, this does not explain how determination subsequent differentiation translates into somite morphology. paper, we use computer simulations chick somitogenesis show that experimentally-observed temporal spatial patterns adhesive N-CAM N-cadherin repulsive EphA4-ephrinB2 pairs suffice reproduce complex dynamic morphological changes wild-type (-/-) chick, including intersomitic separation, boundary-shape evolution sorting misdifferentiated across compartment boundaries. Since different models yield same, experimentally-observed, distribution adhesion repulsion molecules, patterning is independent details mechanism.
