| 31. | It is distinct from the mesoderm underneath the neural tube which is called the chordamesoderm that becomes the notochord.
|
| 32. | Through the process of neurulation, the notochord induces the formation of the neural tube in the embryonic disc.
|
| 33. | The notochord secretes BMP antagonists ( Chordin and Noggin ) to prevent formation of cardiac mesoderm in inappropriate places.
|
| 34. | The paraxial mesoderm is arranged along the sides of the notochord and neural tube as repetitive structures called somites.
|
| 35. | The notochord expresses SHH . The floor plate responds to SHH by producing its own SHH and forming a gradient.
|
| 36. | Amphioxus forms an epithelial neural tube and dorsal notochord but does not have the EMT potential of the primitive streak.
|
| 37. | Noggin was also shown to be indirectly involved in the malformations through its interaction with the notochord and neural axis.
|
| 38. | During the third week of gestation the notochord sends signals to the overlying ectoderm, inducing it to become neuroectoderm.
|
| 39. | Flexion ( the bending of the notochord as part of caudal fin formation ) occurs at around a length of.
|
| 40. | The secretion of SHH by the notochord establishes the ventral pole of the dorsal-ventral axis in the developing embryo.
