During the development of the vertebrate head, cranial neural crest cells migrate into the
branchial arches to form many of the structures of the facial skeleton. These cells follow …

ABSTRACT The mouse Hox-7. 1 gene has previously been shown to be related to the
Drosophila Msh homeobox-containing gene. Here we report the isolation of a new member …

Sfrp is a secreted Wnt antagonist that directly interacts with Wnt ligand. We show here that
inactivation of Sfrp1, Sfrp2, and Sfrp5 leads to fused somites formation in early‐somite …

Murine homeobox genes play a fundamental role in directing embryogenesis by controlling
gene expression during development. The homeobox encodes a DNA binding domain (the …

Neuro-osteology stresses the biological connection during development between nerve and
hard tissues. It is a perspective that has developed since associations were first described …

The homeobox genes Msx1 and Msx2 function as transcriptional regulators that control
cellular proliferation and differentiation during embryonic development. Mutations in the …

Using a differential subtractive hybridization cloning procedure we have recently identified
the AP-2.2 gene as a novel early retinoic acid-induced gene in murine P19 embryonal …

The homeobox-containing genes Msx1 and Msx2 are highly expressed in the limb field from
the earliest stages of limb formation and, subsequently, in both the apical ectodermal ridge …

In a previous study we showed that the murine homeodomain protein Msx-1 is a potent
transcriptional repressor and that this activity is independent of its DNA binding function. The …

Like other cell populations, undifferentiated human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) express a
characteristic set of proteins and mRNA that is unique to the cells regardless of culture …
