A biaxial tensional model for early vertebrate morphogenesis

Un modèle de tension bi-axial pour les étapes précoces de morphogenèse des vertébrés

Résumé

We propose a simple biaxial tensional model which is able to reproduce at a qualitative level several aspects of early stages of vertebrate morphogenesis. The model is based on subsequent excitable contractions of an orthoradial and periclinal (radial) set of contracting lines, which generate first the basic embryonic pattern (a motile tube), and second the lateral orifices such as ears, eyes, mouth, gills etc. An important aspect of the model is the self-arresting character of the process, akin to wound healing. At later stages, the biaxial lines may also work in extension, this generates a developmental feedback which is quadratic with respect to curvature.
