EMBO Developmental Biology Developmental Biology It’s remarkable that the fertilized egg of a human, mouse or fish look so similar and are all around a 1mm wide, yet the adult forms of each of these organisms are wildly different in size and appearance.  Developmental biology is the study of the processes that transform a fertilised egg into an adult organism. When an egg is fertilized it consists of a single cell with a complete genome (half comes from the father and half from the mother). The genome contains within it some instructions that will tell the single cell how to grow and divide to make more cells.  But then the new cells also need additional instructions from the genome that will tell them what tissues they will eventually develop into. They don’t all want to be the same – if they were we’d be a sticky blob of cells with no eyes, ears or anything – which would be extremely inconvenient, to say the least. Some cells need to be told to become one thing and some need to be told to become something else. Understanding which of these genetic instructions are selected for particular cells, and how they are interpreted by them (bearing in mind that all cells carry a complete set of the same instructions from the very beginning) is the basis of developmental genetics.

Technology Developmental biology Sci-Tech Encyclopedia: Developmental biology Home Library Science Sci-Tech Encyclopedia A large field of investigation that includes the study of all changes associated with an organism as it progresses through the life cycle. The life cycles of all multicellular organisms exhibit many similarities. That is, as an organism progresses from one generation to the next there is a series of common processes: for example, gametogenesis , fertilization, embryogenesis , cell differentiation, tissue differentiation, organogenesis , maturation, growth, reproduction, senescence , and death. Analysis of all of the events associated with an organism as it progresses through its life cycle employs a multiplicity of approaches. Tremendous strides have been made in describing at the molecular level the developmental process of cell differentiation. However, the molecular control mechanisms which regulate cell differentiation are not known. Tissue and organ differentiation, as well as morphogenesis , are processes which have been described in detail for many situations, but little is known about the physical and chemical nature of the mechanisms involved. A complete understanding of the development of an organism will require an appreciation and comprehension of the changes which occur at all levels of organization as an organism traverses its life cycle.

Developmental Biology, Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center Developmental Biology scientists at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center study basic cellular and molecular mechanisms of development to uncover bases of human birth http://www.cincinnatichildrens.org/research/div/dev-biology/default.htm

Developmental Biology Overview Our Research Researchers in Developmental Biology are investigating these areas Molecular Embryology Research in this area focuses on the structural, biochemical, molecular, genetic and cellular mechanisms that govern cell behavior and pattern formation during development. Neurobiology Research in this area focuses on the development of the peripheral and central nervous systems and how intrinsic and extrinsic factors influence behavior. Organ Development and Disease This research aims to identify the processes that direct the formation of organs during normal embryonic development, as well as elucidating disorders that arise from abnormal development. Protein Structure and Function Research in this area seeks to enhance our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying normal organ development and how these processes might be disrupted in disease states. Stem Cells, Regeneration and Repair Regeneration of cells in adult tissues has much in common with development and differentiation of cells in the embryo. These studies focus on identifying and manipulating stem and progenitor cells to promote regeneration and to generate tissues for transplantation. It is estimated that 3-4% of babies born in this country have major organ defects caused by mistakes in the process of embryonic development ( Table 1 ). Scientists in the Division of Developmental Biology at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center are focused on uncovering the basis of human birth defects so they can be prevented or corrected. To do so, the Developmental Biology Division has four fundamental goals:

Now Horvitz and colleagues reveal how a neuronal bilateral asymmetry is established in C. elegans ; the Otx/bHLH pathway they identify might also establish neuronal asymmetry in other animals. Klf5: a multifaceted regulator of cell fate Kruppel-like transcription factors have well known roles in inducing and maintaining pluripotency. Now Wells and colleagues reveal the role of Klf5 in early mouse lineage specification, showing it to both positively and negatively regulate certain lineages' specification. Shh: homeodomain interpreters at work How are small differences in morphogen concentration translated into precise, robust transcriptional outputs in responding cells? Ericson and coworkers conclude from studying the vertebrate neural tube Shh gradient that dynamic, non-graded changes in responding cells are essential for interpreting graded Shh signals.

As you read the following text, you will come across a number of Web links. These links will provide information that outlines various aspects of worm development for which you will be responsible. There are also four movies to examine. The nematode worm Caenorhabditis elegans has taken the world of developmental biology by storm over the past few years. The advantages for the study of development are legendary: transparent embryo and adult, ease of doing genetic analyses and a complete lineage map of every single cell in the body of the adult. It will also be the first multicellular organism to have its genome completely sequenced. C. elegans is a free-living organism, which normally lives in the soil, where it feeds mainly on bacteria. In the laboratory, it is grown on agar plates or in liquid culture, with E. coli
