The differentiation of the endoderms of duodenal, jejunal and ileal segments of the small intestine of 6 day old chick embryos cultured in recombination with the gizzard mesenchyme of 6 day chick embryos was examined. Only the duodenal endoderm differentiated in a mesenchyme-dependent fashion into gizzard-like mucous epithelium forming tubular glands that expressed no sucrase-antigen, while jejunal and ileal endoderms tended to become the sucrase-antigen-positive epithelium most likely according to their developmental fates. The analysis on the differentiation of the duodenal and gizzard endoderms in the presence of various digestive-tract mesenchymes confirmed that the duodenal endoderm had the tendency to differentiate into intestine-type and was different from the gizzard endoderm, which showed the differentiation tendency into gizzard-type. Thus, among the segments of small intestine, only the endoderm of duodenum that was situated next to the gizzard was found to have an ability to respond to the inductive influence of the gizzard mesenchyme and to change its developmental fate.

A 2-mo-old, female blue-and-yellow macaw (Ara ararauna) presented with severe abdominal distension, pain, and respiratory distress. Ultrasonographic examination detected a heterogeneous mass with multiple anechoic areas, compatible with a multilocular cyst, occupying most of the coelomic cavity. Postmortem examination revealed a mass of 12.

In vertebrates, stomach smooth muscle development is a complex process that involves the tight transcriptional or post-transcriptional regulation of different signalling pathways. Here, we identified the RNA-binding protein Epithelial Splicing Regulatory Protein 1 (ESRP1) as an early marker of developing and undifferentiated stomach mesenchyme. Using a gain-of-function approach, we found that in chicken embryos, sustained expression of ESRP1 impairs stomach smooth muscle cell (SMC) differentiation and FGFR2 splicing profile.

The current study conducted a careful description of the histological events during the embryonic development of quail stomach. Daily histological specimens from the quail stomach from day 4 to day 17 post incubation were examined by light microscopy. The primitive gut tube of the embryonic quail appeared at day 4 post incubation.

Regulation of the Bone Morphogenetic Protein (BMP) signaling pathway is essential for the normal development of vertebrate gastrointestinal (GI) tract, but also for the differentiation of the digestive mesenchymal layer into smooth muscles and submucosal layer. Different studies demonstrated that Bapx1 (for bagpipe homeobox homolog 1) negatively regulates the BMP pathway, but its precise expression pattern during the development and the differentiation of the GI tract mesenchyme actually remains to be examined. Here, we present the spatio-temporal expression profile of Bapx1 in the chick GI tract.

To establish an ideal method for the detailed definition of the tropism of the goose adenovirus new-type gosling viral enteritis virus (NGVEV) in conventional paraformaldehyde-fixed paraffin-embedded gosling tissue sections, an indirect immunofluorescence assay was established and optimized in this study for the first time. Three-day-old goslings orally inoculated with the CN strain of NGVEV were killed from 0.5 h to 30 days post-infection (p.
