Gastrulation produces three embryonic germ layers. ... Ectoderm [outer layer] develops into epidermis of skin and the nervous system. ... Mesoderm [middle layer] develops into skeletal, muscular, excretory, and the reproductive systems...

Germ layer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A germ layer is a group of cells, formed during animal embryogenesis. Germ layers are particularly pronounced in the vertebrates; however, all animals more complex than sponges (eumetazoans and agno...

Most scientists use the term pluripotent to describe stem cells that can give rise to cells derived from all three embryonic germ layers—mesoderm, endoderm, and ectoderm. These three germ layers are the embryonic source of all cells of the body (see Figure 1.1. Differentiation of Human Tissues).

the three (bad word huh?) basic layers of the germ: - endoderm (-> primitive gut - main part of the digestive organs), - mesoderm (-> mesenchyme - circulatory system) and - ectoderm (-> receptors, nervous system) ("still" described in all basic books on human embryology) and...

NOTE: Epithelium is derived from all three germ layers - ex. endoderm - epithelial lining inside viscera, mesoderm - mesothelium lining outside of viscera, and ectoderm - skin epithelium ... Note: All three germ layers are derived from the epiblast.

We investigated the immunohistochemical expression of CD30 in 30 paraffin-embedded tissue samples representing all three germ layers, using the monoclonal antibody Ber-H2 CD30 is expressed early in human fetal development (8th-10th week) in a wide variety of tissues, with the exception of the skin and thymus in which it...

Later reports showed that mice expressed at least three more members of this family, EBF2 (mMot1/O/E-3), EBF3 (O/E-2) (23, 40, 71), and O/E-4 (70), with a high degree of similarity in the DNA-binding ... EBF-1 is also involved in induction of germ line transcription from and rearrangement of immunoglobulin genes.

Expression of sna is transient and is observed in tissues derived from all three germ layers. Prior to germband elongation, sna RNA accumulation is consistent with its genetically determined role in mesoderm formation.
