  1. The First Three Weeks Thomas A. Marino, Ph.D. Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology Temple University School of Medicine

  2. Introduction • The lecture will focus on the early development of the embryo • We will cover the first three weeks after fertilization. • Will start with a fertilized egg.

  3. Week 1-3: Formation of: • Blastocyst • Bilaminar disc • Gastrulation • Trilaminar disc • Lateral body folding • Head and tail folding • Vertebrate body plan

  4. Week 1: 4 cell stage Late Day 2 Morula Day 3 2 cell stage Day 2 Blastocyst Day 5 Implantation Day 6 - 7 Fertilization Day 1

  5. Early Embryology http://www.infertilitydoctor.com/ivf/ivf_devel.htm PACIFIC FERTILITY CENTER

  6. Inner Cell Mass (embryoblast) Trophoblast Blastocele Week 1 • The blastocyst consists of :

  30. Gastrulation Neurenteric Canal Notochordal plate

  31. Gastrulation Notochordal Plate

  32. Gastrulation

  33. Gastrulation Ectoderm Amniotic Cavity Paraxial mesoderm Intermediate mesoderm Lateral plate mesoderm Yolk Sac Notochord Endoderm

  34. Formation of the Body AxisThe cranial end of the embryo • Anterior visceral endoderm (AVE) • OTX, LIM1, HESX1 transcription factors • secreted factor ceberus

  35. Formation of the Body Axis BMP-4 FGF BMP-4 FGF Lateralize Mesoderm: Intermediate and Lateral Plate mesoderm BMP-4 – bone morphogenetic protein-4 with FGF – Fibroblast growth factor

  36. Formation of the Body Axis • Cranial Mesoderm • Notochord • Somites • Somitomeres Goosecoid, chordin Noggin and follistatin Dorsalize mesoderm into Notochord and Paraxial Mesoderm

  37. Formation of the Body Axis Nodal HNF-3b Brachyury (T) gene Forebrain Midbrain Mid and caudal midline mesoderm development

  38. Formation of the Body AxisLeft – Right Sidedness FGF8 Nodal Lefty PITX2

  39. Cilia in Left – Right sidedness • Situs inversus • 20% (Kartagener syndrome) • Dysfunctional cilia • Respiratory problems • Male fertility problems
