Human Limb Development 5 weeks 6 weeks 8 weeks

Limbs develop from paraxial (somitic) and lateral plate mesoderm From somites: Dermal connective tissue derived from dermatome Limb muscles derived from ventrolateral (abaxial) myotome From lateral plate mesoderm: Bones, blood vessels, and associated connective tissue

EARLY LIMB PATTERNING: Limb formation initiates during the fourth week of development as the primary antero-posterior axis (AP) is still elongating. First the forelimb and then the hindlimb begin as protrusions from the lateral plate mesoderm at the sides of the embryo. Limb buds consist of a core of mesenchyme and an outer covering of ectoderm. 1 in 200 live human births display limb defects. Forelimb bud Hindlimb bud

While external shape is being established, the mesenchyme begins condensing and chondrocyte differentiation ensues. The first cartilage models are formed in the sixth week of development. Joints form at regions of arrested chondrogenesis by cell death. early 6 weeks late 6 weeks early 8 weeks

Endochondral bone formation: Mesenchyme begins to condense into chondrocytes Chondrocytes form a model of the prospective bone Blood vessels invade the center of the model, where osteoblasts localize, and proliferation is restricted to the ends (epiphyses) Chondrocytes toward the shaft (diaphysis) undergo hypertrophy and apoptosis as they mineralize the surrounding matrix. 12 weeks Achondroplasia: defects in cartilage proliferation at the growth plate result in premature closure of the plate and shortened limb bones. Growth of the long bones continues into early adulthood and is maintained by proliferation of chondrocytes in the growth plates (long bones have two growth plates, in smaller bones (phalanges), there is only one at the tip)

At 6 weeks, the terminal portion of the limb buds flatten to form hand- and footplates. Fingers and toes (digits) are formed when cell death in the AER separates the plate into five parts. Digits continue to grow and cell death in intervening mesenchymal tissue delineates the digits. Bmp signaling 41 days 51 days 56 days

Limb patterning and growth is spatially and genetically regulated Proximodistal: shoulder/hip to fingers/toes Anteroposterior: thumb/big toe to pinky/little toe Dorsoventral: dorsum to palm/sole Bone “identity” regulated by HOX genes Predictable limb defects arise when one or more of these mechanisms is disrupted.

Limb malformations Amelia…………………Absence of an entire limb (early loss of Fgf signaling) Meromelia…..………Absence of part of a limb (later or partial loss of Fgf signaling) Phocomelia………….Short, poorly formed limb (partial loss of Fgf, Hox disruption) Adactyly……………….Absence of digits (even later loss of Fgf) Ectrodactyly…………Lobster-Claw deformity (variant of adactyly –middle digit is lost) Polydactyly ………….Extra digits (disruption of Shh pathway) Syndactyly……………Fusion of digits (BMP disruption)

At the tip of the limb bud a signaling structure, the apical ectodermal ridge (AER) forms. It signals mesenchyme to proliferate and the limb grows. Removal of the AER inhibits outgrowth of the limb Transplantation of a second AER duplicates the limb; diplopodia.

Proximodistal (PD) growth - regulated by AER (Fgfs): Embryological manipulation in the developing chick limb established that the apical ectodermal ridge (AER) is necessary for maintenance of PD outgrowth in the limb bud. Removal of the AER at early stages causes severe truncations of the limb skeletal elements. Progressively later removal of the AER causes progressively more distal truncations of limb elements. Removal of AER in chick at progressively later HH stages of development

Removal of AER: arrests limb development at stage at which it was removed

Failure to develop a limb: amelia Loss of AER or FGF signalling

Forelimb-Hindlimb Identity: the ectoderm (AER) promotes outgrowth, but mesoderm controls limb identity. ectoderm, which is FORELIMB-derived, differentiates to produce SCALES, not feathers

Post-specification: What molecular signals distinguish Post-specification: What molecular signals distinguish forelimb from hindlimb are poorly defined Expression of Tbx4 defines lower limb. Expression of Tbx5 defines upper limb.

The Zone of Polarizing activity establishes POSTERIOR (caudal) identity (duplication results in a mirror image) P2 A2 A1 P1 “make a thumb” “make a pinky”

ZPA also controls proliferation at AER Factors secreted by ZPA indirectly induce proliferation of the AER Loss of the ZPA therefore not only affects A-P pattern (e.g. loss of ulnar structures in the forelimb), but will also result in shortened limbs

Digit identity is patterned by Shh

Formation of digits: a balance between cell proliferation at AER maintained at digit tips versus cell death in interdigital regions where AER regresses.

Syndactyly: fusion of fingers and toes due to inadequate cell death between digital rays (probably also affected by Shh, note most fusions involve digits 3,4, and/or 5) 20

Polydactyly: duplication of digits (very often posterior) Disrupted Shh/Gli3 function

Maturation of limb elements Sequence is proximo-distal (e.g. humerus before radius) and postero-anterior (e.g. ulna before radius) humerus, ulna, d4, d5 are “posterior (post-axial)” elements radius, d3, d2, d1 are “anterior (pre-axial)” elements (radial hemiamelia)

The Hox code is used for proximo-distal patterning of the limbs knock out Hox11d: no radius or ulna There are well known HOX mutations in humans, so some limb defects are genetic. However, HOX gene expression is also influenced by exogenous substances (e.g. retinoic acid, ethanol) so environmental factors can also contribute.

Phocomelia: partial loss of limb Multifactorial: FGF disruption, HOX disruption, angiogenesis disruption (e.g. thalidomide)

The limbs rotate inward: forelimb ~90 degrees hindlimb ~180 degrees

Development of body musculature Primaxial myotome (dorsomedial portion closest to neural tube) cells are generally less migratory and therefore contribute to epaxial musculature and proximal hypaxial musculature (e.g. scalenes, geniohyoid, prevertebral, intercostals, rhomboids, levator scapulae, and latissimus dorsi). Abaxial myotome (ventrolateral portion closer to lateral plate mesoderm) cells are more migratory and therefore go into limbs and ventral body wall. The innervation of the adult muscle reflects the segment from which is was derived. “primaxial” myoblasts “abaxial” myoblasts

Abnormal muscle development Poland Syndrome –absence/reduction of pectoralis minor/major muscles. Unknown etiology, but often associated with subclavian artery anomalies (suggests that likely cause is ischemia during time of pectoralis muscle development).

Abnormal muscle development Prune belly syndrome --atrophy or lack of abdominal wall musculature Congenital joint contracture –observed with in utero denervation or atrophy of muscle (suggests that proper joint/skeleton development requires force feedback from muscles)

Dermamyotome forms dermis and muscle BMP from ectoderm induces dermatome the remaining dorsomedial and ventrolateral cells become myotome. Dorsomedial portion of dermomyotome sees Shh from notochord and Wnt from spinal cord and becomes muscle that can’t migrate very far (epaxial muscles of the back) Ventrolateral portion of dermomyotome exposed to high levels of BMP from lateral plate mesoderm and becomes migratory muscle (goes into limbs also “hypaxial” muscles of the lateral and ventral body wall, e.g. “lats” and “abs”

The sclerotome develops into vertebrae, ribs, and meninges Dorsal sclerotome: Dorsal arch & spinous processes of vertebrae* Medial sclerotome: Meninges* Central sclerotome: Pedicles & transverse processes of vertebrae, proximal portions of ribs Ventral sclerotome: Vertebral bodies and annulus fibrosis of intervertebral disks Lateral sclerotome: Distal portions of ribs *failure of these associated w/ spina bifida

Somite (Paraxial mesoderm) forms: 1. Sclerotome 2. Dermamyotome Sclerotome forms: Meninges, vertebral bodies & ribs Dermamyotome forms: 1. Dermis (from dermatome) 2. Muscles (from myotome) (click here for QuickTime version)

The sclerotome breaks into two parts… Anterior and posterior portions of each sclerotome fuse to form vertebral bodies. This offsets the vertebral bodies and segmental muscles. i.e., the vertebrae (sclerotome) are out of phase with muscle (myotome) to form intervertebral joints. This allows the contracting segmental muscles to move the vertebral column laterally. 33

(click here for QuickTime version) Anterior portion of one somite fuses with the posterior portion of the next somite; that way The surrounding muscle bridges sequential vertebral bodies. (click here for QuickTime version)
