New cards
3

When there are low levels of FGF is a positive or negative feedback loop established?

positive

New cards
4

When there are high levels of FGF is a positive or negative feedback loop established?

negative

New cards
5

What axis does Shh specify?

AP

New cards
6

What axis does FGF specify?

PD

New cards
7

When there is low FGF is Shh stimulated or inhibted?

stimulated

New cards
8

When Shh activates Grem1 what does that stimulate low or high FGF?

low

New cards
9

How does the activation of Grem1 inhibit FGF?

by inhibiting BMP

New cards
10

Where is Shh located?

ZPA

New cards
11

Where is FGF located?

AER

New cards
12

True or false: This is the positive feedback loop between the AP and PD axes

Low FGF—>Shh—>Grem1—IBMP—>FGF

true

New cards
13

Does high levelws of FGF activate or inhibit BMP?

activate

New cards
14

True or false: When there are high levels of FGF Grem1 is activated.

false

New cards
15

True or false: When there are low levels of FGF is a positive or negative feedback loop established?

postive

New cards
16

True or false: When there are high levels of FGF is a positive or negative feedback loop established?

negative

New cards
17

How does gremlin lead to low levels of FGF?

by inhibiting BMP

New cards
18

When there are high levels of FGF is BMP activated or inhibited?

activated

New cards
19

High levels of FGF leads to the inhibition or activation of gremlin?

inhibition

New cards
20

True or false: BMP inhibition of FGFs leads to loss of AER and ZPA

true

New cards
21

When BMP is activated what happens to limb development?

it ends

New cards
22

What does AER stand for?

Apical ectodermal ridge

New cards
23

What is the progress zone composed of?

mesenchyme and AER

New cards
24

True or false: Inhibition of gremlin activates BMP and inhibits FGFs.

true

New cards
25

What end is the growing tip of limbs located?

distal end

New cards
26

What end is RA located?

proximal

New cards
27

What end is FGF located?

distal

New cards
28

What does RA activates that leads to the development of the humerus in the arm/wing?

meis

New cards
29

At intermediate levels of FGF what hox gene is activated?

hox 11

New cards
30

What does hox 1 lead to the development of ?

the radisu and ulna

New cards
31

What hox gene does high levels of FGF activate?

hox 13

New cards
32

What does hox 13 lead to the development of?

carpals/digits

New cards
33

In an early stage limb bud when a later stage progress zone is grafted what happens?

graft produced distal structures immediately and are missing the ulna and radius

New cards
34

When a later stage progress zone is grafted why does it lead to the development of distal structures?

Because FGF levels are high

New cards
35

High levels of FGF leads to the development of what structures?

distal structures

New cards
36

Low levels of FGF leads to the development of what levels?

proximal structures

New cards
37

In a later stage limb bud when a early stage progress zone was drafted what happened?

graft produced duplicated proximal structures (radius and ulna)

New cards
38

When a early stage progress zone is grafted what does it lead to duplicated proximal structures?

because there are lower levels of FGF

New cards
39

When there are high levels of FGF that inhibits gremlin and activates BMP which leads to what?

end of limb growth

New cards
40

In the dev of PD axis where is FGF located?

distal end

New cards
41

In the development of the AP axis where is Shh located?

posterior

New cards
42

True or false: BMP shuts down AER, ZPA and Wnt7a along the DV axis?

true

New cards
43

When BMP shuts down AER, ZPA and Wnt7a along the DV axis what happens?

end of limb patterning

New cards
44

True or false: BMP, Wnt/B-catenin, and FGF all play a role in apoptosis.

true

New cards
45

BMP, Wnt/B-catenin, and FGF all activate what?

Dkk-1

New cards
46

What does the activation of Dkk-1 lead to?

apoptosis

New cards
47

True or false: Dkk-1 is a antagonist of Wnt

true

New cards
48

True or false: Pattern formation involves coordination of different axes and specification.

true

New cards
49

True or false: This is the pathway to apoptosis in C.elegans

EGL-1—ICED-9—ICED-4—>CED-3—>apoptosis

true

New cards
50

True or false: This is the pathway leading to apoptosis in mammals.

BAD—IBcl2—IApaf-1—>Caspases—>apoptosis

true

New cards
51

What is BAD?

a Bcl2 associated death promoter

New cards
52

What are two ways to control the number of cells?

apoptosis or death of damaged cells
