Migration of Enteric Neural Crest Cells in Relation to Growth of the Gut in Avian Embryos
1 Jan 1996
Abstract excerpt
Neural crest cell migration in the gut and the growth of the mid- and hindgut of avian embryos was investigated by a combination of whole-mount immunofluorescence of the HNK-1 neural crest marker epitope, chorioallantoic membrane grafting and morphometry. HNK-1-labelled cells advanced rostrocaudally in the gut of quail embryos (to the duodenum by stage HH 21, to the umbilicus by HH 25, to the ceca by HH 27, to...
