Summary Introduction

To determine:

The process by which lacrimal fluid spreads across the eye surface and the process by which it is removed from the orbital region.

Introduction:

The lacrimal fluid is known as tears and is secreted by the lacrimal glands to keep the surface of the eyeball moist. The lacrimal fluid also contains lysozymes along with lipids, lacritin, glucose, sodium, and potassium. The presence of lysozyme also provides the lacrimal fluid with the property of immunity.

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?
