Summary

[edit]
Description Models to explain the function of nodal flow in L–R asymmetry. (a) The ‘morphogen’ hypothesis. Clockwise beating of motile cilia transports a morphogen or NVPs towards the left side of the node. (b) The ‘two-cilia’ hypothesis. Fluid flow generated by the motile cilia is sensed by immotile cilia on the perinodal crown cells (shown here as deflections; blue arrow). Nodal pit cells are depicted in light brown, whereas perinodal crown cells are in dark brown. The motile cilia are tilted posteriorly. Basal bodies are indicated with red dots and the direction of nodal flow is shown with the black arrow. A, anterior; P, posterior.
