Fgf9 gene expression

Fgf9 (Fibroblast growth factor 9) – MGI gene detail Description: Fgf9 is expressed in the palatal epithelium along the AP axis at E13.5. At E14.5, Fgf9 is expressed in both the epithelium and the osteogenic mesenchyme along the AP axis. Source: Iwata et al. (2012) Fibroblast growth factor 9 (FGF9)-pituitary homeobox 2 (PITX2) pathway mediates transforming growth…Continue Reading Fgf9 gene expression

Gli1 gene expression

Gli1 – MGI gene detail Description: Gli1 is expressed in the oral mesenchyme and oral epithelium along the AP axis at E13.5. At E14.5, expression is restricted to the oral mesenchyme of the anterior region of the palate. Sources: Han et al. (2009) Indirect modulation of Shh signaling by Dlx5 affects the oral-nasal patterning of palate…Continue Reading Gli1 gene expression
