[Cell differentiation of the head ectoderm in mouse embryos in vitro].
Cell differentiation has been studied in the explants of head ectoderm of 8, 9 and 10 day old mouse (CBA) embryos and of head epidermis of 13 day old embryos. Pieces of ectoderm were taken from the temporal region. It was established by indirect immunofluorescence that within 10, 15 and 20 days of cultivation spheroids with keratins or crystallins in some groups of fibres formed in the head ectoderm explants from 9 and 10 day old embryos. When cultivating the regions of head epidermis from 13 day old embryos, spheroids formed with keratin only in their cells. The data obtained suggest that there appear to be two clones of cells determined to the synthesis of keratins or crystallins in the head ectoderm of early mouse embryos. During embryogenesis, the number of cells determined to the synthesis of keratins appears to increase in the regions not related to the eye area. At the same time, the clone of cells determined to the synthesis of crystallins appears to be eliminated.
