Molecular embryology of the lung: then, now, and in the future

Abstract excerpt

Complementary molecular and genetic approaches are yielding information about gain- versus loss-of-function phenotypes of specific genes and gene families in the embryonic, fetal, neonatal, and adult lungs. New insights are being derived from the conservation of function between genes regulating branching morphogenesis of the respiratory organs in Drosophila and in the mammalian lung. The function of specific...
