Gene expression and neuron subtype distribution in chordate dorsal ectoderms and ciliary bands of ambulacrarian larvae

Both chordate neural plate and ambulacrarian ciliary bands develop using a similar set of genes, suggesting these two organs are homologous.

Comparison of gene expression in stomodeum formation region between ambulacrarian and chordate larvae

Comparison of gene expression in stomodeum formation region between ambulacrarian and chordate larvae

(A) Expression profiles of development-relevant genes in the stomodeal (mouth opening) region. The stomodeum is formed by stomodeal ectoderm (orange), stomodeal endoderm (blue) and oral endoderm (green). Most of genes expressed in these regions are major component genes of vertebrate Spemann’s organizer. (B) (Left) Gene expression pattern of chordate dorsal structures (notochord + floor plate), and (right) that of starfish larval stomodeum, transverse section of dotted line of (A). This suggests the ambulacrarian stomodeum plays a role of vertebrate Spemann’s organizer.
