• 5 mouse embryo .
• 5-day mouse embryo and in allantoic culture by analysis of spatial and temporal expression patterns of the endothelial or hematopoietic lineage-associated proteins, TAL1, Flk1, platelet/endothelial cell adhision molecule (PECAM), CD34, VE-cadherin, and Tie2. The study establishes that: (1) TAL1 and Flk1 are coexpressed in isolated mesodermal cells that give rise to endothelial cells and thus can be defined as angioblasts; (2) hematopoietic cells of blood islands express TAL1, but not Flk1; (3) vasculogenesis in the embryo proper is initiated by mesoderm fated to give rise to the endocardium; (4) the maturation/morphogenesis of blood vessels can be defined in terms of a sequential pattern of expression in which TAL1 and Flk1 are expressed first followed by PECAM, CD34, VE-cadherin, and later Tie2; and (5) TAL1 expression is down-regulated in endothelial cells of mature vessels. ...
• The first blood vessels to form in the embryo are generated by vasculogenesis. ... Here the temporal and spatial expressions of an array of proteins associated with the endothelial and hematopoietic lineages were examined in the developing mouse embryo, TAL1,7-9 Flk1,4,10,11 platelet/endothelial cell adhesion molecule (PECAM),12 CD34,13,14 VE-cadherin,15,16 and Tie2. 6,17,18 The analysis used a novel protocol that renders the normally curved or lordotic mouse embryo into a planar format. ...
• These procedures allow the embryo to assume a planar orientation. Prominent features of the early embryo provided as points of reference for this protocol include the blood islands (BI), the somites (S), and the allantois (AL). ...
• The absence of TAL1 (panel A, bracket) and Flk1 (panel B, bracket) immunostaining in intraembryonic regions indicates that vasculogenesis in the embryo proper is not initiated prior to 6. ...
• 3-dpc embryo. ...
• The bilateral distribution of the TAL1+/Flk1+ cells coincides with regions of the embryo that are fated to give rise to the heart,23 suggesting that the TAL1+/Flk1+ cells are endocardial progenitors. ...
• That such cells represent angioblasts and not hemangioblasts is indicated by the fact that blood vessels lacking blood cells (see Figure 4, A and B, braces) form in extraembryonic regions where dispersed TAL1+/Flk1+ cells were detected earlier in development (see Figure 3B, arrowheads) and the fact that blood vessels in the embryo proper, which are known to form without associated hematopoietic development, also arise from TAL1+/Flk1+ cells (see Figure 4 and Figure 6, A-F). ... 5-dpc embryo, we have defined extraembryonic hematopoietic stem cells as TAL1+/Flk1. ...
• The analysis of TAL1 and Flk1 expression in the early mouse embryo raises questions as to the relationship of the endothelial and hematopoietic lineages. ...
• The first vasculogenic activity in the embryo proper is associated with the development of the endocardium. ... 3 dpc) 2 bilateral fields of TAL1+/Flk1+ mesodermal cells were evident in cranial regions of the embryo (see Figure 4B). ...

• Both in carrot and Norway spruce embryogenic systems, bacterial Nod factors can substitute for chitinases in their effect on early somatic embryo development (De Jong et al. ...
• Somatic embryogenesis in Norway spruce is a multistep regeneration process, which starts with development of PEMs, followed by somatic embryo formation, maturation, desiccation, and plant regeneration. ...

•  Example of a somatic embryo. ...
• However, somatic embryo formation was stimulated when 2,4-D was added to the medium. ...
• We thus found that the frequency of cell death decreases upon addition of 2,4-D with simultaneous increase in PEM and embryo formation, and that addition of fraction C of culture filtrate, Nod factor, chitotetraose, or chitinase, but not chitobiose, could substitute for 2,4-D suppressing cell death and promoting PEM and embryo formation. ...
