Summary Introduction

Case summary:

Brian Rhen (42 age) was diagnosed with benign paroxysmal vertigo (BPPV). Head trauma can be responsible for the BPPV. The vertigo is experienced at greater scale with the movement of the head. Mr. Rehen reports his problem to a neurologistand recommends for a test called Dix-Hallpike maneuver. During this test, the neurologistchecks nystagmus as he makes specific rotations of his head.

Characters in the case:

Brian Rhen and a neurologist.

Adequate information:

Mr. Rhen was diagnosed with BPPV, which was caused by head trauma. He experienced vertigowhile rolling on the bed or turning his head from side to side while sitting. These movements provoke the sensations of a spinning wheel and lead to cause nausea.

To determine:

The ear is divided into three compartments and out of these three compartments one is involved in the Mr. Rhen’sBPPV.

You aim to test the hypothesis that the Tbx4 and Tbx5 genes inhibit each other's expression during limb development. With access to chicken embryos and viruses capable of overexpressing Tbx4 and Tbx5, describe an experiment to investigate whether these genes suppress each other's expression in the limb buds. What results would you expect if they do repress each other? What results would you expect if they do not repress each other?
You decide to delete Fgf4 and Fgf8 specifically in the limb bud. Explain why you would not knock out these genes in the entire embryo instead.
You implant an FGF10-coated bead into the anterior flank of a chicken embryo, directly below the level of the wing bud. What is the phenotype of the resulting ectopic limb?  Briefly describe the expected expression domains of 1) Shh, 2) Tbx4, and 3) Tbx5 in the resulting ectopic limb bud.
