Myotome differentiation during Mexican axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) somitogenesis was analyzed by employing anti-actin and anti-myosin monoclonal antibodies as molecular probes. Myotome differentiation occurs after segmentation and proceeds in the cranial-to-caudal direction along the somite file. Within individual somites myotome differentiation displays distinct polarities. Examination of the somite file at the tailbud stage revealed that soon after segmentation, actin/myosin accumulate predominantly in the anterior and medial region of the myotome initially. Subsequently, cells within the myotome differentiate in an anterior-to-posterior and medial-to-lateral direction. Experimental analysis of presomitic paraxial mesoderm grafts before segmentation revealed that this transient myotome polarity is autonomous. Comparative analyses indicate that this myotome differentiation pattern is urodele specific.Cynops pyrrhogasterundergoes myotome differentiation like the axolotl, while two anurans,Xenopus laevisandBombina orientalis, do not.
