Abstract excerpt
Induction of the otic placode involves a number of regulatory interactions. Early studies revealed that the induction of this program is initiated by instructive signals from the mesendoderm as well as from the adjacent hindbrain. Further investigations on the molecular level identified in zebrafish Fgf3, Fgf8, Foxi1, Pax8, Dlx3b and Dlx4b genes as key players during the induction phase. Thereafter an increasing...
