BMP-mediated inhibition of FGF signaling promotes cardiomyocyte differentiation of anterior heart field progenitors
12 Aug 2010
Abstract excerpt
The anterior heart field (AHF) encompasses a niche in which mesoderm-derived cardiac progenitors maintain their multipotent and undifferentiated nature in response to signals from surrounding tissues. Here, we investigate the signaling mechanism that promotes the shift from proliferating cardiac progenitors to differentiating cardiomyocytes in chick embryos. Genomic and systems biology approaches, as well as...
