Introduction
The bottom germ layer of the early trilaminar embryo germ layers (ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm) formed by gastrulation. Note the historic name for endoderm was "entoderm".
The endoderm contributes the epithelia and glands of the gastrointestinal tract, respiratory tract and the renal bladder. This layer also contributes to the associated gastrointestinal tract organ development (liver and pancreas).
The layer appears to initially be influenced by the overlying notochord and subsequently by a range of growth factors regulating growth and differentiation.
Note that this layer also lines the extra-embryonic yolk sac and allantois, which are initially continuous with the intra-embryonic endoderm.

Early Endoderm Cartoon
<mediaplayer width='300' height='320' image="http://php.med.unsw.edu.au/embryology/images/a/af/Endoderm_002_icon.jpg">File:Endoderm 003.mp4</mediaplayer> | This animation shows the early development of endoderm forming the gastrointestinal tract, yolk sac and allantois. The movie starts approximately week 3 and continues through week 4.
Yellow shows the general lining of the yolk sac (bottom), continuous with the endoderm of the trilaminar embryonic disc (top) during week 3. As the trilaminar disc folds in this week, the foregut and hindgut regions become separated from the external yolk sac. The midgut region remains open to the yolk sac and will separate later. Foregut - Begins at the buccopharyngeal membrane, the foregut region in the head is now called the pharynx. At the lower end of the pharynx a ventral bud forms, that will later form the respiratory tract. Beneath this region the tube grows rapidly forming a dilation of the tube, that will later form the stomach. Beneath this region is the boundary of the foregut and ventrally lies the transverse septum. Midgut - Broadly open to the external yolk sac then with continued folding narrows to a "tube-like" connection the yolk stalk. This stalk will later degenerate and all connection will normally be lost. The yolk sac is pushed to the periphery by the growing amniotic sac, with its connecting yolk stalk in the umbilicus region. The midgut region also grows in length forming a loop lying outside the ventral body wall. Hindgut - The loop of midgut renters the body and the ventral portion of the hindgut extends as a blind-ended tube, or diverticulum, into the connecting stalk. This endoderm extension can be seen in histological sections of the initial placental cord and is called the allantois. The hindgut extends caudal (tailward) ending at the cloacal membrane. |

Hypochord
The hypochord (subnotochordal rod) is a transient endoderm structure found in the amphibian and fish embryo.[4] It forms a rod-like structure from a single row of cells lying immediately ventral to the notochord. The region is though to play a role in patterning the development of the dorsal aorta and degenerates by apoptosis.
It was first identified in the late 1900's:
- Stöhr, Ph. (1895). Ueber die Entwickelung der Hypochorda und des dorsalen Pankreas bei Rana temporaria. Morph. Jahrb. Bd. 23, 123-141.

Molecular
Markers
Several studies have identified the following proteins as markers for endoderm in different species.
- Foxa2 - Forkhead box A2 expressed by anterior primitive streak that forms endoderm.[6] OMIM FOXA2
- Sox17 - Sry-Related HMG-Box gene 17 Sox | OMiM - SOX17
- Cxcr4 - Chemokine, Cxc Motif, Receptor 4 a membrane receptor for neuropeptide Y OMIM CXCR4
- Daf1 - Decay-Accelerating Factor for complement.[1] OMIM DAF1
Nodal
- signaling pathway initiates endoderm and mesoderm development
- also required for proper gastrulation and axial patterning.
- ligands are members of the TGFβ family of secreted growth factors.
- promotes the expression of a network of transcription factors Mix-like proteins (Foxa2, Sox17, Eomesodermin, and Gata4–6).

Patterning
- foregut - (anterior) Hhex, Sox2, and Foxa2 transcription factors.
- hindgut - (posterior) also positioning of the foregut-hindgut boundary, homeobox genes Cdx1, 2, and 4.[7]
