Avian extraembryonic membranes respond to yolk corticosterone early in development [PDF]
Biology Open, 2023 During times of maternal stress, developing embryos can be exposed to elevated levels of glucocorticoids which can affect development and permanently alter offspring phenotype.

Endocrine activity of extraembryonic membranes extends beyond placental amniotes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 BackgroundDuring development, all amniotes (mammals, reptiles, and birds) form extraembryonic membranes, which regulate gas and water exchange, remove metabolic wastes, provide shock absorption, and transfer maternally derived nutrients.

Morphogenetic functions of extraembryonic membranes in insects. [PDF]
Current Opinion in Insect Science, 2016 Morphogenetic functions of the amnioserosa, the serosa, the amnion, and the yolk sac are reviewed on the basis of recent studies in flies (Drosophila, Megaselia), beetles (Tribolium), and hemipteran bugs (Oncopeltus). Three hypotheses are presented. First, it is suggested that the amnioserosa of Drosophila and the dorsal amnion of other fly species ...

Significant contributions of the extraembryonic membranes and maternal genotype to the placental pathology in heterozygous Nsdhl deficient female embryos. [PDF]
Hum Mol Genet, 2010 Mutations in the gene encoding the cholesterol biosynthetic enzyme NSDHL are associated with the X-linked male-lethal bare patches (Bpa) mouse. Mutant male embryos for several Nsdhl alleles die in midgestation with placental insufficiency.

Comparative Study of Prenatal Development Between Myotis albescens (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae) and Eumops patagonicus (Chiroptera: Molossidae): The Chorionic Vesicle and Extraembryonic Membranes Considerations [PDF]
The Anatomical Record, 2018 We presented a comparative study of two species of South American bats, Myotis albescens and Eumops patagonicus, about prenatal development. This study was carried out using 60 specimens, which were measured and photographed, and the embryonic stage was ...
