Figure 8 Schematic Model of the Mechanism of DVE Formation by Mechanical Stress (A) At stage 1 (5.0 dpc), the embryonic growth is not restricted by the external maternal tissue. At stage 3 (5.5 dpc), the embryonic growth is restricted mechanically. Therefore, the embryo elongates along the P-D direction, and the BM at the distal part of the embryo is breached to induce transmigration of epiblast cells into the VE layer, thereby forming the DVE. Light blue indicates the epiblast, yellow indicates the VE layer, green indicates the DVE, red lines indicate the BM, light magenta indicates the uterine epithelium, dark magenta indicates the parietal endoderm layer, blue arrows point in the direction of the embryo expansion, magenta arrows point to the reaction force of the decidual tissue against the embryo, and dark magenta arrows point to the expansion of the yolk sac cavity at the hinge region. The upper and lower illustrations are Tr and sagittal images of the embryo and the yolk sac cavity, respectively. (B) Schematic presentations of the bending moment acting in the embryo cultured with or without external force. Red lines and light-red areas indicate the BM, light-blue areas indicate the epiblast layer (Epi), and σ and green arrows point to bending stress. ρ, radius of curvature.
