We show that Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) signaling is increased at the posterior midline, Kupffer's vesicle (the teleost left...

... progenitor state at day 14. By the end of a 56-day differentiation procedure, we obtain functional neurons expressing CGN markers GABA A Rα6 and vGLUT2. We show that sonic hedgehog promotes GABAergic lineage specification and CGN progenitor proliferation. Our work presents a new model with which to study...

... and signalling pathways that may play a role in its development. For one of these, the Sonic hedgehog (Shh) pathway, we show that co-receptors Gas1 , Cdon and Boc are highly expressed in the VL and act to enhance the Shh signal from the forming incisor region. In Gas1 mutant mice, expression of Gli1...

It is unclear how migratory NCCs reach their proper destination in the PA and initiate mesenchymal condensation to form specific ossicles. We show that secreted molecules sonic hedgehog (SHH) and bone...

... lip morphogenesis is limited. Here, we show in mice that sonic hedgehog (Shh)-induced proliferation of cranial neural crest cell (cNCC) mesenchyme is required for upper lip closure. Gene expression profiling revealed a subset of Forkhead box (Fox) genes that are regulated by Shh signaling during lip...
