Reciprocal endoderm-mesoderm interactions mediated by<i>fgf24</i>and<i>fgf10</i>govern pancreas development

Abstract excerpt

In amniotes, the pancreatic mesenchyme plays a crucial role in pancreatic epithelium growth, notably through the secretion of fibroblast growth factors. However, the factors involved in the formation of the pancreatic mesenchyme are still largely unknown. In this study, we characterize, in zebrafish embryos, the pancreatic lateral plate mesoderm, which is located adjacent to the ventral pancreatic bud and is...
