Emigration of bilayered epidermal cell sheets from tadpole tails (Xenopus laevis)
Tóm tắt
Migration of bilayered epidermal cell sheets out of explants of tadpole tails (Xenopus laevis) were investigated with time-lapse cinemicrography using reflection-contrast optics. Cell-sheet formation begins beneath the explant in a region where it is closely attached to the coverslip. A single basal cell extends a lamellipodium through the outer (surface) epidermal layer and starts moving in a direction free of attached cells. This cell remains connected to the following basal cell, which the also extends a lamellipodium onto the glass. The cell sheet develops as increasingly more adjacent basal cells start to migrate. Surface cells do not actively locomote but they remain attached to the basal cells and to adjacent surface cells. Thus, they are transported as an intact cell layer, and consequently the in situ arrangement of the tadpole epidermis is largely preserved in the cell sheet, i.e., basal cells adhere to the substratum and are covered by outer cells (surface cells) which face the culture medium. Basal cells extend lamellae beneath the rear end of the preceding cell, which is slightly fifted off the substratum. The direction of locomotion is determined by the frontal cells. Cell-sheet enlargement and locomotion cease when all the epidermal cells facing the coverslip have left the explant, and the cell sheet and epidermis covering the explant form a continuous layer.
