چکیده
cate that Shh signalling controls Laminin gene expression, a critical step in the formation of the myotomal basement membrane, and that Laminin-111 has specific and essential role in myotomal basement membrane assembly. Together, our data reveal a novel role for Shh signalling in the control of basement membrane assembly and provide a framework for understanding the complex interactions between extra-cellular matrix and intercellular signalling.

Chimeric analysis of fibroblast growth factor receptor-1 (Fgfr1) function: a role for FGFR1 in morphogenetic movement through the primitive streak.
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling has been implicated in the patterning of mesoderm and neural lineages during early vertebrate development. In the mouse, FGF receptor-1 (FGFR1) is expressed in an appropriate spatial and temporal manner to be orchestrating these functions. Mouse embryos homozygous for a mutated Fgfr1 allele (fgfr1(delta tmk)) die early in development, show abnormal growt...
متن کاملCorrect Patterning of the Primitive Streak Requires the Anterior Visceral Endoderm
Anterior-posterior axis specification in the mouse requires signalling from a specialised extra-embryonic tissue called the anterior visceral endoderm (AVE). AVE precursors are induced at the distal tip of the embryo and move to the prospective anterior. Embryological and genetic analysis has demonstrated that the AVE is required for anterior patterning and for correctly positioning the site of...
متن کاملCollective Epithelial and Mesenchymal Cell Migration During Gastrulation
Gastrulation, the process that puts the three major germlayers, the ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm in their correct topological position in the developing embryo, is characterised by extensive highly organised collective cell migration of epithelial and mesenchymal cells. We discuss current knowledge and insights in the mechanisms controlling these cell behaviours during gastrulation in the ch...
متن کاملPatterning and gastrulation defects caused by the tw18 lethal are due to loss of Ppp2r1a
The mouse t haplotype, a variant 20 cM genomic region on Chromosome 17, harbors 16 embryonic control genes identified by recessive lethal mutations isolated from wild mouse populations. Due to technical constraints so far only one of these, the tw5 lethal, has been cloned and molecularly characterized. Here we report the molecular isolation of the tw18 lethal. Embryos carrying the tw18 lethal d...
متن کاملThe Wnt co-receptors Lrp5 and Lrp6 are essential for gastrulation in mice.
Recent work has identified LDL receptor-related family members, Lrp5 and Lrp6, as co-receptors for the transduction of Wnt signals. Our analysis of mice carrying mutations in both Lrp5 and Lrp6 demonstrates that the functions of these genes are redundant and are essential for gastrulation. Lrp5;Lrp6 double homozygous mutants fail to establish a primitive streak, although the anterior visceral e...
