Mouse epiblasts change responsiveness to BMP4 signal required for PGC formation through functions of extraembryonic ectoderm
28 Oct 2004
Abstract excerpt
Mouse primordial germ cells (PGCs) are initially identified as a cluster of alkaline phosphatase (AP)-positive cells within the extraembryonic mesoderm near the posterior part of the primitive streak at embryonic day (E) 7.25. Clonal analysis of epiblast cells has revealed that the putative precursors of PGCs are localized in the proximal epiblast, and we demonstrated that the conditions required for PGC...
