Shh pathway activation is present and required within the vertebrate limb bud apical ectodermal ridge for normal autopod patterning.
Expression of Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) in the posterior mesenchyme of the developing limb bud regulates patterning and growth of the developing limb by activation of the Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway. Through the analysis of Shh and Hh signaling target genes, it has been shown that activation in the limb bud mesoderm is required for normal limb development to occur. In contrast, it has been state...
متن کاملRetinoic acid and chick limb bud development.
The chick limb bud is a powerful experimental system in which to study pattern formation in vertebrate embryos. Exogenously applied retinoic acid, a vitamin A derivative, can bring about changes in pattern and, on several grounds, is a good candidate for an endogenous morphogen. As such, the local concentration of retinoic acid might provide cells with information about their position in relati...
متن کاملSox2 is required for development of taste bud sensory cells.
Sox2 is expressed in basal epithelial cells of the tongue, with high levels in taste bud placodes, fungiform papillae, and mature taste cells, and low levels in filiform papillae. High Sox2 expression appears to lie downstream from canonical Wnt signaling. In hypomorphic Sox2(EGFP/LP) embryos, placodes form but no mature taste buds develop. In contrast, transgenic overexpression of Sox2 in the ...
متن کاملSonic hedgehog is not required for polarising activity in the Doublefoot mutant mouse limb bud.
The mouse mutant Doublefoot (Dbf) shows preaxial polydactyly of all four limbs. We have analysed limb development in this mutant with respect to morphogenesis, gene expression patterns and ectopic polarising activity. The results reveal a gain-of-function mutation at a locus that mediates pattern formation in the developing limb. Shh expression is identical with that of wild-type embryos, i.e. ...
متن کاملRetinoic acid is required for the initiation of outgrowth in the chick limb bud
BACKGROUND Retinoic acid (RA) is present in the chick limb bud, and excess RA induces limb duplications. Here, we have investigated the role of endogenous RA during chick limb development by preventing the synthesis of RA and testing the effect on various genes expressed during limb initiation and outgrowth. RESULTS We demonstrate that the stage 20/21 limb bud synthesizes didehydroretinoic ac...
