Sentence examples for be involved in patterning from inspiring English sources
Sall1 expression in the digital plate could be involved in patterning the digit 2 condensation although it should be noted that Sall1 is also highly expressed throughout the Sox9 expressing condensation for digit 3.
Preliminary experiments with inhibitors of the Wnt and fibroblast growth factor pathways suggest that these may be involved in patterning the pilidium (Hiebert, unpublished).
In contrast, ClpostHox expression is found in a broad posterior domain that includes ectodermal, endodermal and, possibly, mesodermal cells suggesting that it may be involved in patterning more than just the nervous system.
However, the downstream cytoplasmic partners of the transmembrane proteins shown to be involved in patterning in melanophores and xanthophores are unknown as well as transmembrane molecules in iridophores that are responsible for the interactions.
However, while these studies link FGF signalling to ECM composition and cell migration, they do not address how ECM could be involved in patterning the embryonic axis or induction of specific cell types during ESC differentiation.
Wnt4 is one example of a Wnt paralog expressed at the right stage and location in developing Nematostella[ 44] and amphioxus [ 45] to be involved in patterning along the primary axis; yet, in the absence of specific knockdown or knockout data, no case for the specific involvement of Wnt4 can be made.
"Looking at genes that are involved in patterning in the developing brain is the way to go".
We hypothesize that multiple Hox genes are involved in patterning the primary body axis of Nematostella.
The Hox genes are involved in patterning the anterior-posterior axis.
Hox genes encode transcription factors that are involved in patterning the individual elements of the developing skeleton during the development of cartilage, the precursor to mature bone.
In the zebrafish, miR-214 can modulate hedgehog signaling, thus changing muscle cell fate [18], and miR-10 was shown to represses HoxB1a and HoxB3a, which are involved in patterning the anterior-posterior axis [19].
