Ectoderm-mesenchyme and mesenchyme-mesenchyme interactions regulate Msx-1 expression and cellular differentiation in the murine limb bud

Article Abstract:

The apical ectodermal ridge (AER) is not necessary for the expression of the homeobox gene Msx-1 in the developing mouse limb. FGF-4 can maintain Msx-1 expression in the absence of AER, but cell-cell interactions are still required. A failure in the cell-cell interactions in the limb mesenchyme leads to a decrease in Msx-1 expression.

Components of both major axial patterning systems of the Bilateria are differentially expressed along the primary axis of a 'radiate' animal, the anthozoan cnidarian Acropora millepora

Article Abstract:

The role of homeobox genes in defining the axial patterns of the bilateral symmetry of the Acropora millepora (coral) body is studied.
