What's the difference between gastrula and invaginate?

Gastrula


Definition:

  • (n.) An embryonic form having its origin in the invagination or pushing in of the wall of the planula or blastula (the blastosphere) on one side, thus giving rise to a double-walled sac, with one opening or mouth (the blastopore) which leads into the cavity (the archenteron) lined by the inner wall (the hypoblast). See Illust. under Invagination. In a more general sense, an ideal stage in embryonic development. See Gastraea.
  • (a.) Of or pertaining to a gastrula.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Results obtained from cumulative labeling and pulse-labeling and chase experiments with cells from late gastrulae, yolk plug-stage embryos, and neurulae showed that the 30S RNA is an intermediate in rRNA processing and is derived from 40S pre-rRNA and processed to 28S rRNA.

  • (11) RNase protection assays demonstrate that transcripts encoding alpha, gamma, and delta subunits are coordinately expressed at late gastrula and that the amount of each transcript increases in parallel with muscle-specific actin mRNA during the ensuing 12 h. After the onset of muscle activity the level of actin mRNA per somite remains relatively constant, whereas the level of alpha subunit and delta subunit transcripts decrease fourfold per somite and the level of gamma subunit transcript decreases greater than 50-fold per somite.
  • (12) When the supernatant proteins from eggs and gastrulae were subjected to size-exclusion HPLC the neural inducing activity was eluted in different size classes, suggesting a limited proteolysis of a precursor during early embryogenesis.

  • (14) In both fish embryos, the COI and COII transcripts declined gradually after fertilization until late-blastula stage and then increased in early gastrula stage.

  • (17) We have demonstrated that a 'wave' of DNA synthesis occurs in the neurectoderm of Xenopus laevis gastrula.
  • (18) When Xenopus blastula or early gastrula ectoderm is disaggregated and cells are kept dispersed for up to 5 h prior to reaggregation, the resulting spheres will differentiate into large neural structures.
  • (19) Yolky tissue from the vegetal hemisphere of the gastrula or the archenteron floor of the neurula synthesized mainly polydisperse material of high molecular weight rather than discrete glycoproteins.
  • (20) The transgenome replicates intensively during the course of early development (until the blastula--early gastrula stages), but later the replication slows down which results in the elimination of the transgenome from the majority of embryos at more advanced stages.

Invaginate


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To insert as in a sheath; to produce intussusception in.
  • (a.) Alt. of Invaginated

Example Sentences:

  • (9) The changes observed were alterations of the nucleus (fingerlike or fingerformed nuclei, nuclear invaginations, and intranuclear vesicular membrane bodies), changes of the mitochondries (number, polymorphy, and osmiophil bodies), as well as changes of lysosomes (myelin-shaped residual bodies).
  • (10) Thus intracellular free calcium may be regulated by a combination of energy-requiring extrusion and passive influx through receptor-operated calcium channels located in the invaginated vesicular membranes, with short diffusion distances to the actin-myosin filaments in the cytoplasm.
