Figure 5

Comparative representation between the embryo, with its extra-embryonic membranes (left) and the inflamed tissue (right). Recapitulation of the extra-embryonic exocoelomic-amniotic (E-A)- axis and trophoblastic-yolk sac-related (T-YS) axis within the inflamed tissue would allow the development of a new tissue from the intra-embryonic mesoderm, as it occurs during embryonic development. BCE: blood capillary endothelium; E: epithelium; EC: exocoelomic cavity; EM: extra-embryonicmesoderm; F: fibroblast; HEVE: high endothelial venule endothelium; IM: intraembryonic mesenchyma; LE: lymphatic endothelium; Leu: leukocyte; M: microbiome; MC: mast cell; MØ: Macrophage; PCVE: postcapillary venule endothelium; YS: yolk sac.
