Summary Introduction

To review:

The structure, apart from ovaries, that produces estrogen and progesterone.

Introduction:

The main source of the steroid sex hormone is the testes as well as ovaries. Progesterone is produced by follicle cells. Androgens are secreted in the ovary and are converted into estrogen. Progesterone, in pregnancy, is responsible for preparing the uterus. The reproductive organs are maintained by estrogen.

If you transplant trunk neural crest into the cranial neural crest region of a developing embryo, will you see the donor tissue form cartilage? Does the neural crest only give rise to two cells in the developing embryo, and is essential for lamprey to develop their jaw structure? Does a multipotent neural crest cell that is receiving Wnt signals become a Chromaffin cell?
Using quail and chick embryos, quail-specific antibody and fluorescent tissue-specific antibodies, design an experiment where you investigate the tissues the cranial neural crest can give rise to.  What are four derivatives of the cranial neural crest that you expect to see in the resulting chimeric embryos?
Does the neural crest have to undergo epithelial to mesenchymal transition prior to migration through the developing embryo?  Does the neural crest differentiate into different cell types based on their axial position along the anterior and posterior axis?
