Primordium - Healthy

Japanese: 原基 - げんき
Primordium - Healthy

In the embryo of a multicellular organism, this refers to a group of cells that are determined to become the material for a future organ or tissue. However, in amphibian embryos, even if they are not determined, cell groups that are identified as becoming some organ or tissue after normal morphogenetic movements are also treated as primordia. Moreover, a diagram showing the arrangement of primordia in such an undifferentiated embryo is called a primordium diagram or a predestined fate diagram.

多細胞生物の胚(はい)において、将来の器官あるいは組織の素材となるように方向づけ(決定)された細胞集団をさす。しかし両生類の胚では、決定を受けていなくとも、正常な形態形成運動ののちにはいずれかの器官、組織になることが同定される細胞集団も原基として扱われる。また、このような未分化な胚における原基の配置を示すものを、原基図あるいは予定運命図とよぶ。
