...Ingo Flamme; Klaus Schulze-Osthoff; Heinz Jügen Jacob ABSTRACT The chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) is one of the most vascularized tissues in the chicken embryo. Capillary growth proceeds until day 10 of development and thereafter abruptly regresses. As it is generally accepted that the formation...

... distinct splicing differences within the embryo, with cell-type-specific splicing excluding EIIIA and/or EIIIB in some tissues. In contrast, we did not detect exclusion of the V region. In a more detailed developmental study of the simplest of these tissues, the chorioallantoic membrane, we found...

... of the chorioallantoic membrane (CAM), the tissue responsible for translocating eggshell calcium. On the other hand, when embryos were rendered vitamin K deficient by the administration of its antagonist, Warfarin, CAM calcium activity was significantly depressed, an effect which was remedied by vitamin K...
