Cardiopharyngeal mesoderm origins of musculoskeletal and connective tissues in the mammalian pharynx
1 Feb 2020
Abstract excerpt
ABSTRACT Cardiopharyngeal mesoderm (CPM) gives rise to muscles of the head and heart. Using genetic lineage analysis in mice, we show that CPM develops into a broad range of pharyngeal structures and cell types encompassing musculoskeletal and connective tissues. We demonstrate that CPM contributes to medial pharyngeal skeletal and connective tissues associated with both branchiomeric and somite-derived neck...
