Morphogenesis of extraembryonic membranes and placentation inMabuya mabouya(Squamata, Scincidae)
AbstractTopological and histological analyses of Mabuya mabouya embryos at different developmental stages showed an extraembryonic membrane sequence as follows: a bilaminar omphalopleure and progressive mesodermal expansion around the whole yolk sac at gastrula stages; mesodermal split and formation of an exocoelom in the entire embryonic chamber at ...

Radioautographic studies of DNA synthesis in the developing extraembryonic membranes of the mouse
AbstractTritiated thymidine was injected into pregnant BALB/c mice intravenously at 8, 10, 12, 14 and 16 days of pregnancy. Radioautographs were prepared in order to determine the extent of synthesis of DNA in the extraembryonic membranes at the above stages of gestation. The extent of synthesis of DNA was expressed as a radioactive index. The index is

Paternal X chromosome expression in extraembryonic membranes of XO mice
AbstractThe paternally derived allelic form of the X chromosome linked enzyme phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK‐1) is expressed in both the fetus and extraembryonic membranes of 9.5 day post coitum XO (XPO) mouse conceptuses. Previous studies on trophectoderm and primitive endoderm derived extraembryonic membranes in XX conceptuses suggest expression of ...

Embryology of the sheep. I. Extraembryonic membranes and the development of body form
AbstractThe developmental anatomy of the sheep in the early prenatal period (14 to 34 days) was studied using embryos of known coital age, and embryos of known size with estimated coital age. Characteristics of the embryos were studied by gross observation under the dissecting microscope, and by means of serial sections.

The study concerns the diagnosis of fetal condition early in pregnancy ‐ within the first trimester. An instrument was designed to allow biopsy of the extraembryonic membranes under visual control. The instrument was tested in 95 pregnant women prior to legal termination of pregnancy.

AbstractAn understanding of the evolutionary morphology of extraembryonic membranes in reptiles requires information about oviparous as well as viviparous species. We are studying histology and ultrastructure of the extraembryonic membranes of snakes to clarify the evolutionary history of reptilian fetal membranes, including determination of basal ...

ABSTRACTYolk is the primary source of calcium for embryonic growth and development for most squamates, irrespective of mode of parity. The calcified eggshell is a secondary source for embryonic calcium in all oviparous eggs, but this structure is lost in viviparous lineages.

Fur1ctions of extraembryonic membranes
Abstract Several extraembryonic membranes arc interposed between the postimplantation mammalian embryo and the maternal tissue, and these subserve a variety of functions which together provide a well-regulated environment for embryo growth and development.

AbstractDevelopment of the extraembryonic membranes and their structural alignment in the formation of the four placental categories that occur in Virginia striatula is similar to that of other Serpentes. The vascularized trilaminar omphalopleure contacts the uterine epithelium early in development to form the choriovitelline placenta, which ...
