Abstract excerpt
FGF8 has been reported to act as a primary regulator of neocortical patterning along the anteroposterior (AP) axis in the mouse telencephalon, and disruption of FGF signaling causes distortion of molecular arealization along the AP axis. Since hypoplasia of midline structures is observed in Fgf8 mutant mice, FGF8 is also postulated to be involved in telencephalic midline development. In this study we analyzed the...
