Abstract excerpt
The ability of undifferentiated cardiogenic mesoderm to generate diversified myogenic phenotypes was assayed in a minimal culture system. During cardiogenesis in vivo, the anterior and posterior segments of the avian heart have distinct patterns of contractile protein gene expression when they first differentiate. To assess the potential of undifferentiated cardiogenic tissue to diversify into distinct anterior...
