Abstract excerpt
The roles of engrailed-1 (En-1) and engrailed-2 (En-2) have been investigated during gastrulation and neurulation in mouse embryos. Using antisense oligonucleotides and murine whole embryo culture, early somite embryos were injected with antisense phosphorothioated oligonucleotides directed against En-1 or En-2 transcripts and then grown in vitro for 48 hr. Inhibition of En-1 by antisense targeting during this...
