Abstract excerpt
Classical cadherins are important cell adhesion molecules specifying and separating brain nuclei and developmental compartments. Cadherin-22 (Cdh22) belongs to type II subfamily of classical cadherins, and is expressed at the midbrain-hindbrain boundary during early embryogenesis. In Fgfr1 mutant mouse embryos, which have a disturbed midbrain-hindbrain border, Cdh22 is down-regulated. Here, we studied expression...
