Abstract excerpt
In Xenopus laevis embryonic development, activation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway promotes mesoderm cell fate determination via Xnr (Xenopus nodal-related) expression. We have demonstrated previously that Rel/NF-κB (nuclear factor κB) proteins expressed in presumptive ectoderm limit the activity of Xnrs to the marginal zone of embryos during mesoderm induction, which assists to distinguish mesoderm from ectoderm....
