Sclerotomal Subdomains and Their Derivatives

  • Sclerotome subdomain - derivatives
  • Central sclerotome - pedicle part of neural arch, proximal rib, syndetome
  • Ventral sclerotome - vertebral body, intervertebral disc
  • Dorsal sclerotome - dorsal part of the neural arch, spinous process
  • Lateral sclerotome - endothelial cells, distal rib, tendons
  • Medial sclerotome - meninges of the spinal cord, blood vessels
  • Somitocoel cells - vertebral joints, intervertebral discs, proximal ribs
  • Anterior half - vertebral body, perineurium, small part of the neural arch, endoneurium, small part of the distal rib
  • Posterior half - vertebral body, transverse process, proximal part of the rib, main part of the distal rib, main part of the neural arch
