Most SC originate from PAX7...

... Paraxial mesoderm Olig2 Pax7 Retinoic acid Somite The sonic hedgehog (Shh) protein plays fundamental roles in the development of the neural tube (NT) and somites (Borycki et al., 1998 ; Briscoe, 2009 ; Cairns et al., 2008 ; Ericson et al., 1997a , b ; Gustafsson et al., 2002). Its signaling...

... elevated as the neural folds (NFs) form and fuse in the dorsal region of the closed neural tube, from where NC cells emigrate. In chick embryos, Pax7 is an early marker, and necessary component of NC development. Unlike other early NPB markers, which are co-expressed in lateral ectoderm, medial neural...

... cells with high Pax7 expression. By genetically modulating Notch activity, we demonstrate that activated Notch (NICD) blocks terminal differentiation in an Rbpj-dependent manner that is sufficient to sustain stem/progenitor cells throughout embryogenesis, despite the absence of committed progeny...

... repair that is widely held to be accomplished by the satellite cells lying between the muscle fiber plasmalemma and the basement membrane. Cell transplantation and lineage-tracing studies have demonstrated that Pax7-expressing (Pax7 +) satellite cells can repair damaged muscle tissue repeatedly after...

... Tcf4, a newly identified fibroblast marker, and Pax7, a satellite cell marker, we found that after injury satellite cells and fibroblasts rapidly proliferate in close proximity to one another. To test the role of satellite cells and fibroblasts in muscle regeneration in vivo, we created Pax7 CreERT2...

... express Pax7, but overexpression of Pax7 in blastomeres of whole embryos that populate the myogenic areas does not induce the formation of additional satellite cells. Moreover, a dominant-negative construct, Pax7EnR , does not reduce satellite cell formation. Neither Pax7 nor other myogenic transcription...

... pits are capable of inducing bone, cartilage and ectopic PAX7 expression, but these effects were only observed in the facial grafts. Facial mesenchyme also supported the initial projection of the olfactory nerve and differentiation of the olfactory epithelium. Thus, the nasal placode has two roles...

... for regeneration. We further tracked single nuclear-GFP-labeled cells as they proliferated during regeneration, observing their spatial distribution, and ultimately their expression of the progenitor markers PAX7 and PAX6. Most progenitors generate descendents that expand along the anterior/posterior (A/P) axis...

The posterior cells of the somite, by contrast, elongate into medial muscle fibres. The surprising movement of the anterior somite cells...

... contains many muscle satellite cells. They are active in DNA replication, whereas the myonuclei are not. As in mammals, the satellite cells express pax7 . We show that a domain-swapped construct, pax7EnR , can antagonize pax7 function. Transgenic tadpoles were prepared containing pax7EnR driven by a heat...

... that maintain expression of PAX7,PAX3 and FREK. Given this dual fate, we asked whether single dermomyotome precursors generate both dermal and mitotic myoblast precursors, or alternatively, whether these cell types derive from distinct epithelial founders. Inovo clonal analysis revealed that single dermomyotome...

However,the situation is different as the cloacal anlage extends from the ventral muscle mass towards the cloacal tubercle. Pax3, Pax7 and MyoD are expressed at the same level both...

This tissue does not form somites, yet expresses the somitic markers Lbx1 , Pax7 and Paraxis in a regionalised fashion. The domain set aside by these markers provides the lateral rectus...
