Abstract excerpt
In ventricular cells of the mouse telencephalon, differential expression of cadherin cell adhesion molecules defines neighbouring regions; R-cadherin delineates the future cerebral cortex, while cadherin-6 delineates the lateral ganglionic eminence. By using cell labelling analyses in the whole embryo culture system, we demonstrated that the interface between R-cadherin and cadherin-6 expression is a boundary for...
