It is one of the original homes of the Carib Indians supposed to have been sighted by Columbus in 1498. It was in English hands from 1627 till held by the French 1779-83. Saint Vincent subsequently became a British possession and, with other nearby British territories, was administered by the Governor of the Windward Islands till 1959. It attained a measure of independence in 1969 but achieved full independence as Saint Vincent and the Grenadines in 1979. Saint Vincent was the 4th century Spanish martyr on whose feast day Columbus discovered the island. Grenadines is derived from the Spanish kingdom of Granada.

Modulation of gelatinase activity correlates with the dedifferentiation profile of regenerating salamander limbs. (1/189)

Remodeling of extracellular matrix (ECM) is one of the key events in many developmental processes. In the present study, a temporal profile of gelatinase activities in regenerating salamander limbs was examined zymographically. In addition, the effect of retinoic acid (RA) on these enzyme activities was examined to relate the pattern-duplicating effect of RA in limb regenerates with gelatinase activities. During regeneration, various types of gelatinase activities were detected, and these activities were at their maximum levels at the dedifferentiation stage. Upon treatment with chelating agents EDTA and 1,10-phenanthroline, the enzyme activities were inhibited indicating that those enzymes are likely matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Considering the molecular sizes and the decrease of molecular sizes by treatment with p-aminophenylmercuric acetate, an artificial activator of proMMP, some of the gelatinases expressed during limb regeneration are presumed to be MMP-2 and MMP-9. In RA-treated regenerates, overall gelatinase activities increased, especially the MMP-2-like gelatinase activity which increased markedly. These results suggest that MMP-2-like and MMP-9-like gelatinases play a role in ECM remodeling during regeneration, and that gelatinases are involved in the excessive dedifferentiation after RA treatment.  (+info)

The cardiac neural crest in Ambystoma mexicanum. (2/189)

To establish whether a region of the cranial neural crest contributes cells to the developing heart of Ambystoma mexicanum (axolotl), as it does in many other vertebrates, we constructed a fate map for the neural crest in late neurula stage (stage 19-20) embryos. The fluorescent vital dye, Dil, was used as the lineage label. The various regions of the cranial neural folds were identified in relation to such landmarks as the developing forebrain, midbrain and hindbrain, and the appearance and extent of emerging somites. Labelled cells originating in the rhombencephalic region were found in the aortic arches and in the truncus arteriosus, and occasionally in the walls of the conus arteriosus. Cells were also found in the third and fourth branchial arches. Labelled neural crest from the adjacent anterior trunk region appeared neither in the heart nor the visceral skeleton, whereas those from the mesencephalic region contributed to the first hypobranchial cartilage and to the first three branchial arches, but not to the heart. No labelled cells from any of the regions were seen in the ventricle or auricle.  (+info)

Analysis of cranial neural crest migratory pathways in axolotl using cell markers and transplantation. (3/189)

We have examined the ability of normal and heterotopically transplanted neural crest cells to migrate along cranial neural crest pathways in the axolotl using focal DiI injections and in situ hybridization with the neural crest marker, AP-2. DiI labeling demonstrates that cranial neural crest cells migrate as distinct streams along prescribed pathways to populate the maxillary and mandibular processes of the first branchial arch, the hyoid arch and gill arches 1-4, following migratory pathways similar to those observed in other vertebrates. Another neural crest marker, the transcription factor AP-2, is expressed by premigratory neural crest cells within the neural folds and migrating neural crest cells en route to and within the branchial arches. Rotations of the cranial neural folds suggest that premigratory neural crest cells are not committed to a specific branchial arch fate, but can compensate when displaced short distances from their targets by migrating to a new target arch. In contrast, when cells are displaced far from their original location, they appear unable to respond appropriately to their new milieu such that they fail to migrate or appear to migrate randomly. When trunk neural folds are grafted heterotopically into the head, trunk neural crest cells migrate in a highly disorganized fashion and fail to follow normal cranial neural crest pathways. Importantly, we find incorporation of some trunk cells into branchial arch cartilage despite the random nature of their migration. This is the first demonstration that trunk neural crest cells can form cartilage when transplanted to the head. Our results indicate that, although cranial and trunk neural crest cells have inherent differences in ability to recognize migratory pathways, trunk neural crest can differentiate into cranial cartilage when given proper instructive cues.  (+info)

Cloning of cDNAs encoding retinoic acid receptors RAR gamma 1, RAR gamma 2, and a new splicing variant, RAR gamma 3, from Aambystoma mexicanum and characterization of their expression during early development. (4/189)

To analyze retinoic acid (RA) receptor (RAR) expression during early development in the urodele embryo, we have isolated cDNAs for four members of the axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) RAR family, namely RAR alpha (NR1B1), aRAR gamma 1 (NR1B3a), aRAR gamma 2 (NR1B3b), and a new splicing variant of aRAR gamma 2, aRAR gamma 3 (NR1B3c), which contains an insertion of five hydrophobic amino acids in the C-terminal region of the DNA binding domain. The temporal expression pattern of the RAR gamma isoforms was established by RT-PCR using total RNA from embryos of different stages. The expression of aRAR gamma 2 coincides with neurulation and is enhanced in the extremities of the embryo's anteroposterior axis. The aRAR gamma 3 is specifically expressed during gastrulation and early neurulation, whereas aRAR gamma 1 is expressed later during organogenesis. Global aRAR gamma 2 mRNA levels, as well as their spatio-temporal expression pattern in the neurula, were not affected by treatment with RA. These results show that several RARs are expressed in the axolotl embryo during early development, and reveal the existence of a new RAR gamma variant.  (+info)

GDNF and GFRalpha-1 are components of the axolotl pronephric duct guidance system. (5/189)

In mammals, secretion of GDNF by the metanephrogenic mesenchyme is essential for branching morphogenesis of the ureteric bud and, thus, metanephric development. However, the expression pattern of GDNF and its receptor complex-the GPI-linked ligand-binding protein, GFRalpha-1, and the Ret tyrosine kinase signaling protein-indicates that it could operate at early steps in kidney development as well. Furthermore, the developing nephric systems of fish and amphibian embryos express components of the GDNF signaling system even though they do not make a metanephros. We provide evidence that GDNF signaling through GFRalpha-1 is sufficient to direct pathfinding of migrating pronephric duct cells in axolotl embryos by: (1) demonstrating that application of soluble GFRalpha-1 to an embryo lacking all GPI-linked proteins rescues PND migration in a dose-dependent fashion, (2) showing that application of excess soluble GFRalpha-1 to a normal embryo inhibits migration and that inhibition is dependent upon GDNF-binding activity, and (3) showing that the PND will migrate toward a GDNF-soaked bead in vivo, but will fail to migrate when GDNF is applied uniformly to the flank. These data suggest that PND pathfinding is accomplished by migration up a gradient of GDNF.  (+info)

Expression and characterization of fibroblast growth factor 8 from Mexican axolotl, Ambystoma mexicanum. (6/189)

Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) has been known to regulate the proliferation and differentiation of a variety of cell types via interaction with a specific FGF receptor on the cell surface. In the present study, Fgf8 cDNA of Mexican axolotl, Ambystoma mexicanum, was expressed in Escherichia coli as an MBP-FGF8 fusion protein. The cell proliferation activity of the recombinant FGF8 (rFGF8) was measured by 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyl tetrazoliumbromide (MTT) assay. The addition of rFGF8 to the culture medium enhanced proliferation of BALB/c 3T3 and BHK21 cells about 1.4-1.5 fold. To analyze the binding activity of rFGF8 to the cell surface, cell surface enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was developed. Comparison of the structure of basic FGF with the computer-simulated structure of FGF8 suggested that Tyr-58, Glu-132, Tyr-139, and Leu-179 might be the potential receptor binding sites. Amino acid substitution muteins of FGF8 were constructed by PCR-derived directed mutagenesis and the muteins were overexpressed in E. coli. The rFGF8 muteins were purified and their binding activities were analyzed. Substitution of Tyr-58 or Glu-132 or Leu-179 of the FGF8 with alanine reduced the binding affinity, while substitution of Tyr-139 with alanine did not alter the binding affinity. These results imply that Tyr-58, Glu-132, and Leu-179 of FGF8 might be involved in its binding to the cell surface.  (+info)

Different regulation of T-box genes Tbx4 and Tbx5 during limb development and limb regeneration. (7/189)

The T-domain transcription factors Tbx4 and Tbx5 have been implicated, by virtue of their limb-type specific expression, in controlling the identity of vertebrate legs and arms, respectively. To study the roles of these genes in developing and regenerating limbs, we cloned Tbx4 and Tbx5 cDNAs from the newt, and generated antisera that recognize Tbx4 or Tbx5 proteins. We show here that, in two urodele amphibians, newts and axolotls, the regulation of Tbx4 and Tbx5 differs from higher vertebrates. At the mRNA and protein level, both Tbx4 and Tbx5 are expressed in developing hindlimbs as well as in developing forelimbs. The coexpression of these genes argues that additional factors are involved in the control of limb type-specific patterns. In addition, newt and axolotl Tbx4 and Tbx5 expression is regulated differently during embryogenesis and regenerative morphogenesis. During regeneration, Tbx5 is exclusively upregulated in the forelimbs, whereas Tbx4 is exclusively upregulated in the hindlimbs. This indicates that, on a molecular level, different regulatory mechanisms control the shaping of identical limb structures and that regeneration is not simply a reiteration of developmental gene programs.  (+info)

Extending the table of stages of normal development of the axolotl: limb development. (8/189)

The existing table of stages of the normal development of the axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) ends just after hatching. At this time, the forelimbs are small buds. In this study, we extend the staging series through completion of development of the forelimbs and hindlimbs.  (+info)

Dinoflagellates collected during red tide events in Bahia Mazatlan, Mexico during the early spring of 1999 and 2000 appeared under LM to belong to Prorocentrum mexicanum Osorio-Tafall. Observations with SEM of those populations showed marked differences in shape and microornamentation from the related species, Prorocentrum rhathymum Loeblich III, Sherley and Schmidt. In P. mexicanum, the presence and dimensions of poroids, the uneven distribution of trichocyst pores not located in depressions, and the general architecture of the periflagellar region are more closely related to Prorocentrum caribbaeum Faust. Also, P. mexicanum has a three-horned (sometimes two-horned) spine and is deeper in the anterior than the posterior region, whereas P. rhathymum has a simple small spine and its sagittal view is oval.

Mesoderm induction in Ambystoma mexicanum, a urodele amphibian - Nottingham ePrintsMesoderm induction in Ambystoma mexicanum, a urodele amphibian - Nottingham ePrints
Understanding how the germ layers are formed is one of the key questions of developmental biology. Abundant studies in the anuran amphibian Xenopus laevis have described that maternal and vegetally localised mRNAs for VegT and Vg1 contribute greatly to the formation of mesoderm and endoderm in the developing embryo. Within Xenopus mesendoderm gene-regulatory network (GRN), Wnt/β-catenin as well as Nodal and Mix family members have been shown to play important roles. The involvement of several members of the Nodal and Mix gene families with redundant functions makes the mesendoderm GRN surprisingly complex and difficult to study in Xenopus laevis. By contrast, mouse and humans have only single copies of Nodal and Mix. Since urodeles have an embryology that is basal to amphibians and that has most likely also been conserved during the evolution of amniotes, including mammals, we have investigated the Mix and Nodal genes in the urodele Axolotl in the hope that their gene families contained fewer ...

Molecular Analysis of Tropomyosin Deficiency in Mutant Axolotl Hearts. The long term goal of our laboratory is to elucidate the cellular and molecular mechanisms that regulate embryonic and post-embryonic cardiac development. The cardiac lethal mutation in the Mexican axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) has proven a useful tool for studying heart development in vertebrates. The naturally occurring mutation was discovered in 1968 by R. R. Humphrey in a dark stock of axolotls brought to the United States from Mexico. The cardiac non- function phenotype is a simple homozygous recessive mutation that results in failure of the affected hearts to beat. Mutant axolotl embryos are obtained from matings of heterozygous (+/c x +/c) parents, with twenty-five percent of the progeny expressing the mutant gene.. Electron microscopic analysis has demonstrated that the mutant axolotl hearts do not beat because they lack organized sarcomeres. In other words, the mutant hearts lack the contractile apparatus necessary ...

The premature death (p) mutation is a recessive lethal, which, in the homozygous condition, gives rise to a complex of abnormalities. The mutant embryos develop only to stage 37, at which time disintegration of superficial tissue begins. Many of the abnormalities observed in sections of the stage-37 mutant embryo are related to its failure to establish a functioning circulatory system, or to the resulting edema and/or ascites that distend the abdomen and flanks. There are, however, abnormalities of heart, liver, gill and muscle development which cannot be attributed to lack of circulation and edema. All of these abnormalities can be indirectly related to the endoderm, particularly the anterior and dorsal endoderm. The findings, therefore, suggest that the mutation leads to a fairly general defect of the endoderm.. ...

Microarray Analysis of a Salamander Hopeful Monster Reveals Transcript by Robert B. Page, Meredith A. Boley et al.Microarray Analysis of a Salamander Hopeful Monster Reveals Transcript by Robert B. Page, Meredith A. Boley et al.
BACKGROUND: The Mexican axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) is considered a hopeful monster because it exhibits an adaptive and derived mode of development - paedomorphosis - that has evolved rapidly and independently among tiger salamanders. Unlike related tiger salamanders that undergo metamorphosis, axolotls retain larval morphological traits into adulthood and thus present an adult body plan that differs dramatically from the ancestral (metamorphic) form. The basis of paedomorphic development was investigated by comparing temporal patterns of gene transcription between axolotl and tiger salamander larvae (Ambystoma tigrinum tigrinum) that typically undergo a metamorphosis. RESULTS: Transcript abundances from whole brain and pituitary were estimated via microarray analysis on four different days post hatching (42, 56, 70, 84 dph) and regression modeling was used to independently identify genes that were differentially expressed as a function of time in both species. Collectively, more differentially

An ectopic limb (right side) was induced to grow from a wound on the limb proper by deviating a severed nerve and grafting tissue from the opposite limb axis into the wound site. This assay, known as the accessory limb assay, makes it possible to test each of the critical components of limb regeneration: (1) the wound, (2) neurotrophic factors and (3) positional information. Understanding the role of each of these components during limb regeneration in the adult A. mexicanum will bring us closer to harnessing the regenerative capacity in humans.

The adult human body is composed of many different types of cells arranged according to specific instructions to form tissues and organs that interconnect harmoniously and function as a complete biological unit. This is a result of events that occur during embryogenesis, which coordinate the patterning and differentiation of cells and gradually build up the complexity of the structures throughout our bodies until we reach adulthood. This developmental process is also recapitulated during regeneration in organisms that can regenerate complicated body structures, such as limbs. However, one key difference is that the cells of the regenerating system arise from and are connected to adult tissues that have already completed patterning and differentiation. Thus, regeneration requires not only the development of new pattern and the differentiation of cells to fit into this pattern, but also for the new pattern to align perfectly with the existing pattern, and for the new cells to differentiate and ...

UC Irvine - Faculty Profile SystemUC Irvine - Faculty Profile System
Alone among vertebrates, urodele amphibians are able to regenerate lost body parts as adults. The key to this ability is that limb cells are triggered to dedifferentiate and reinitiate growth and pattern formation. Our strategy is to use axolotls (Ambystoma mexicanum) to discover the signals that trigger the regeneration response, in the belief that these signals have enormous potential and consequences for human health. Our long term goals are to identify the regeneration-enabling signals in limbs, in order to support progress towards the eventual application of these molecules to the improvement of human repair mechanisms. In current research, we are using assays derived from the extensive experimental history of regenerating limbs, to test the roles of several signaling molecules known to be essential for limb development. These assays are designed to examine the signals that initiate regeneration, those that are needed to establish a blastema, as well as those that are required for ...

Neoteny - WikipediaNeoteny - Wikipedia
Neoteny (/niːˈɒtɪni/ /niːˈɒtni/ or /niːˈɒtəni/, (also called juvenilization) is the delaying or slowing of the physiological (or somatic) development of an organism, typically an animal. Neoteny is found in modern humans. In progenesis (also called paedogenesis), sexual development is accelerated. Both neoteny and progenesis result in paedomorphism (or paedomorphosis), a type of heterochrony. Some authors define paedomorphism as the retention of larval traits, as seen in salamanders. Both neoteny and progenesis cause the retention in adults of traits previously seen only in the young. Such retention is important in evolutionary biology, domestication, and evolutionary developmental biology. The origins of the concept of neoteny have been traced to the Bible (as argued by Ashley Montagu) and to the poet William Wordsworths The Child is the father of the Man (as argued by Barry Bogin). The term itself was invented in 1885 by Julius Kollmann as he described the axolotls maturation ...

Neoteny - WikipediaNeoteny - Wikipedia
Neoteny has been observed in many other species. It is important to note the difference between partial and full neoteny when looking at other species in order to distinguish between juvenile traits that are only advantageous in the short term and traits that provide a benefit throughout the organisms life; this might then provide some insight into the cause of neoteny in those species. Partial neoteny is the retention of the larval form beyond the usual age of maturation with the possibility of the development of sexual organs progenesis, but eventually the organism still matures into the adult form; this can be seen in Lithobates clamitans. Full neoteny is seen in Ambystoma mexicanum and some populations of Ambystoma tigrinum, which remain in their larval form for the duration of their life.[30][31] Lithobates clamitans is partially neotenous: it delays its maturation through the winter season, because it is not advantageous for it to metamorphose into the adult form until there are more ...

The combined map distance of our 14 largest linkage groups (5251 cM) is consistent with previous studies that indicated a large genetic map for Ambystoma. By comparison, the combined map length of LG1 and LG2 is greater than the total map length of the mouse genome! Marker-based estimates of genome size vary greatly for Ambystoma (e.g., 2600-6276 cM in Armstrong 1984 and 7291 cM in Voss et al. 2001). This variation may be attributed to the large genome size of Ambystoma and the nonrobust nature of estimators; genotyping errors and missing data cause upward bias in size estimates and nonrandom distribution of markers with respect to recombinational distances causes downward bias (Chakravarti et al. 1991). We estimated genome size using linkage data from this study and the method of Hulbert et al. (1988). Analyses were performed separately for protein coding and anonymous marker classes and for the combined data set using several linkage thresholds (10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 cM; data not shown). ...

High density cell water in amphibian eggs? | Journal of Experimental BiologyHigh density cell water in amphibian eggs? | Journal of Experimental Biology
The exchange of isotopic water, 2H2O and H2(18)O has been studied in amphibian eggs. The experiments were carried out with ovarian and body cavity eggs of Rana temporaria and unfertilized eggs of Ambystoma mexicanum. The cytoplasmic diffusion coefficient for H2(18)O was found to be 4.6 × 10(−6) cm2/s, somewhat higher than that for 2H2O, 3.4 × 10(−6) cm2/s. The total change in reduced weight, delta RW, during the isotope experiments was compared with the total amount of water in the egg cell, m. The ratio delta RW/m was significantly higher than would be expected from calculations using ordinary water density values. The results are discussed in terms of different phases of structured cell water.. ...

Proteomic analysis of blastema formation in regenerating axolotl limbs | BMC Biology | Full TextProteomic analysis of blastema formation in regenerating axolotl limbs | BMC Biology | Full Text
Following amputation, urodele salamander limbs reprogram somatic cells to form a blastema that self-organizes into the missing limb parts to restore the structure and function of the limb. To help understand the molecular basis of blastema formation, we used quantitative label-free liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS)-based methods to analyze changes in the proteome that occurred 1, 4 and 7 days post amputation (dpa) through the mid-tibia/fibula of axolotl hind limbs. We identified 309 unique proteins with significant fold change relative to controls (0 dpa), representing 10 biological process categories: (1) signaling, (2) Ca2+ binding and translocation, (3) transcription, (4) translation, (5) cytoskeleton, (6) extracellular matrix (ECM), (7) metabolism, (8) cell protection, (9) degradation, and (10) cell cycle. In all, 43 proteins exhibited exceptionally high fold changes. Of these, the ecotropic viral integrative factor 5 (EVI5), a cell cycle-related oncoprotein that

How Do Axolotls Learn? - PACKER INTERSECTIONSHow Do Axolotls Learn? - PACKER INTERSECTIONS
The objective of this experiment is to determine whether or not axolotls can acquire spatial learning through the use of visual cues. Since salamanders, a very similar species to axolotls, have shown the ability to use landmarks as visual cues when finding food, axolotls should also be able to do so, since they are very closely related. The axolotls will be given a certain amount of time to find an escape hole, based on standardized visual cues. and with each trial, the time will be recorded. It is hypothesized that the amount of time required for the axolotl to escape the shallow water will change based on the placement of the visual cues and the amount of trials done. The independent variable will be the placement of the standardized cues, and the dependent variable will be the time it takes for the axolotl to escape. The amount of time for the experiment and data collection will be about 2 weeks. In those two weeks, using four axolotls, 140 trials will be conducted with each axolotl. Data ...

Salamander limb regeneration involves the activation of a multipotent skeletal muscle satellite cell population | JCBSalamander limb regeneration involves the activation of a multipotent skeletal muscle satellite cell population | JCB
The ability to form a regeneration blastema, which leads to the epimorphic regeneration of complex body structures, is restricted to some amphibians and fish among vertebrates (Poss et al., 2003). A conundrum of regenerative biology is why mammals, with a few exceptions, do not form a blastema or a blastema-like structure despite the fact that they can functionally repair some tissues, such as skeletal muscle (Charge and Rudnicki, 2004) and liver (Fausto and Campbell, 2003). Of particular interest is whether the generation of progenitor cells during epimorphic regeneration in salamander and during mammalian tissue repair proceeds by the activation of different or overlapping mechanisms. A unique feature of blastema formation in salamanders is the process of dedifferentiation of stump tissues that follows appendage removal. The possibility to induce blastema formation and regeneration in mammals through the activation of a comparable dedifferentiation program has been proposed (Hughes, 2001; ...

In order to delineate further the molecular evolution of the renin-angiotensin system in vertebrates, angiotensin I (ANG I) has been isolated after incubation of plasma and kidney extracts of emu (Dromiceus novaehollandiae), axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum), and sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus). The identified sequences were [Asp1, Val5, Asn9] ANG I in emu, [Asp1, Val5, His9] ANG I in axolotl, and [Asn1, Val5, Thr9] ANG I in sea lamprey. These results confirmed the previous findings that tetrapods have Asp and fishes including cyclostomes have Asn at the N-terminus, and that the amino acid residue at position 9 of ANG I was highly variable but, those at other positions were well conserved among different species. Since Asp and Asn are convertible during incubation, angiotensinogen sequences were searched in the genome and/or EST database to determine the N-terminal amino acid residue from the gene. The screening detected 12 tetrapod (10 mammalian, one avian, and one amphibian) and seven teleostean ...

Retinoic acid coordinately proximalizes regenerate pattern and blastema differential affinity in axolotl limbs | DevelopmentRetinoic acid coordinately proximalizes regenerate pattern and blastema differential affinity in axolotl limbs | Development
An assay that detects position-related differences in affinity of axolotl regeneration blastema cells in vivo was used to test whether retinoic acid, which proximalizes regenerate pattern, simultaneously proximalizes blastema cell affinity. The assay involved autografting or homografting late bud forelimb blastomas derived from the wrist, elbow or midupper arm levels to the dorsal surface of the blastema-stump junction of an ipsilateral, medium-bud-stage hindlimb regenerating from the midthigh level. The grafted blastemas consistently displaced to their corresponding levels on the proximodistal axis of the host regenerate, indicating the existence of level-specific differences in blastema cell affinity. Retinoic acid proximalized the pattern of donor forelimb regenerates to the level of the girdle and abolished their displacement behaviour on untreated host hindlimbs. Conversely, untreated forelimb donor blastemas displaced distally to their corresponding levels on host ankle regenerates, that ...

Induction of Aryl Hydrocarbon Hydroxylase in Ambystoma tigrinum - Digital LibraryInduction of Aryl Hydrocarbon Hydroxylase in Ambystoma tigrinum - Digital Library
Aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) was induced 15-fold in Ambystoma tigrinum by intraperitoneal injection of 3-methylcholanthrene in corn oil, or 10-fold by addition of aromatic polycyclic hydrocarbons to the aqueous environment of the neotene animal. The cytochrome P-450-associated microsomal enzyme is similar to the inducible, one-gene, autosomal-dominant system typical in the laboratory mouse and man. Differences in optimal temperature for enzyme induction and activity were noted in organ culture of human and Ambystoma tissues, and ratios of benzpyrene metabolites differed between Ambystoma and Mus. The half life of enzyme activity induced in vivo was related to the excretion of hydrocarbon metabolites.

Axolotl - WikipediaAxolotl - Wikipedia
The axolotl is a popular exotic pet like its relative, the tiger salamander (Ambystoma tigerinum). As for all poikilothermic organisms, lower temperatures result in slower metabolism and a very unhealthily reduced appetite. Temperatures at approximately 16 °C (61 °F) to 18 °C (64 °F) are suggested for captive axolotls to ensure sufficient food intake; stress resulting from more than a days exposure to lower temperatures may quickly lead to disease and death, and temperatures higher than 24 °C (75 °F) may lead to metabolic rate increase, also causing stress and eventually death.[26][27] Chlorine, commonly added to tapwater, is harmful to axolotls. A single axolotl typically requires a 40-litre (11-US-gallon) tank with a water depth of at least 15 cm (6 in). Axolotls spend the majority of the time at the bottom of the tank.[citation needed]. Salts, such as Holtfreters solution, are usually added to the water to prevent infection.[28]. In captivity, axolotls eat a variety of readily ...

Axolotl - New World EncyclopediaAxolotl - New World Encyclopedia
As salamanders (member of the amphibian order Caudata), axolotls lack scales and claws, have the presence of a tail in all larvae, juveniles, and adults, and have forelimbs and hindlimbs that are typically about the same size and set at right angles to the body (Larson et al. 2006). They have the characteristically slender bodies, short legs, long tails, and moist, smooth skin of salamanders. Salamanders generally have a biphasic life cycle, typified by an aquatic larval stage with external gills and a terrestrial adult form that utilizes lungs or breathes through moist skin (Larson et al. 2006). However, axolotls typically remain aquatic throughout life, not undergoing metamorphosis to a terrestrial adult but retaining their juvenile features. They can undergo transformation to the adult form under certain experimental and environmental conditions. Axolotls are members of the Ambystoma tigrinum (Tiger salamander)-complex, along with all other Mexican species of Ambystoma. Ambystoma, the mole ...

Difference between revisions of Axolotl Development - EmbryologyDifference between revisions of Axolotl Development - Embryology
Stochastic specification of primordial germ cells from mesoderm precursors in axolotl embryos[7] A common feature of development in most vertebrate models is the early segregation of the germ line from the soma. For example, in Xenopus and zebrafish embryos primordial germ cells (PGCs) are specified by germ plasm that is inherited from the egg; in mice, Blimp1 expression in the epiblast mediates the commitment of cells to the germ line. How these disparate mechanisms of PGC specification evolved is unknown. Here, in order to identify the ancestral mechanism of PGC specification in vertebrates, we studied PGC specification in embryos from the axolotl (Mexican salamander), a model for the tetrapod ancestor. In the axolotl, PGCs develop within mesoderm, and classic studies have reported their induction from primitive ectoderm (animal cap). We used an axolotl animal cap system to demonstrate that signalling through FGF and BMP4 induces PGCs. The role of FGF was then confirmed in vivo. We also ...

Axolotl Academic Publishing Co - Mechanisms of evolutionAxolotl Academic Publishing Co - Mechanisms of evolution
In organisms like humans, or even mice, it can be difficult to study the effects of evolution because evolutionary changes take many generations to appear, and for us humans, a new generation takes over a decade, often longer. Furthermore, in complex organisms, many changes can be difficult to spot and follow over time. Enter the lowly bacteria, Escherichia coli, which reproduces very quickly, and has a small genome in which to watch for mutations. Since February of 1988, Richard Lenski and his colleagues have kept up a long term evolution experiment (LTEE), which has propagated a bacterial culture every day for over 50,000 generations. Every 500 generations (75 days), samples are taken and frozen so that researchers in the future can go back in time to determine when a particular trait may have arisen, changed, or disappeared.. In todays paper, Leiby and Marx used samples from the Lenski LTEE to investigate the mechanism by which evolutionary adaptation arises. In particular, they wanted to ...

Regeneration of Limb Joints in the Axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum)Regeneration of Limb Joints in the Axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum)
In spite of numerous investigations of regenerating salamander limbs, little attention has been paid to the details of how joints are reformed. An understanding of the process and mechanisms of joint regeneration in this model system for tetrapod limb regeneration would provide insights into developing novel therapies for inducing joint regeneration in humans. To this end, we have used the axolotl (Mexican Salamander) model of limb regeneration to describe the morphology and the expression patterns of marker genes during joint regeneration in response to limb amputation. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that the mechanisms of joint formation whether it be development or regeneration are conserved. We also have determined that defects in the epiphyseal region of both forelimbs and hind limbs in the axolotl are regenerated only when the defect is small. As is the case with defects in the diaphysis, there is a critical size above which the endogenous regenerative response is not sufficient to
