Journal ArticleDOI
Early stages of chick somite development
Bodo Christ,Charles P. Ordahl +1 more
TL;DR: The formation and early differentiation of the somites in the avian embryo is reported on and a method for staging somites according to their developmental age is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
VEGF and VEGF-C: Specific Induction of Angiogenesis and Lymphangiogenesis in the Differentiated Avian Chorioallantoic Membrane
Su Ja Oh,Markku M. Jeltsch,Ralf Birkenhäger,John E.G. McCarthy,Herbert A. Weich,Bodo Christ,Kari Alitalo,Jörg Wilting +7 more
TL;DR: Both the regular pattern and the typical structure of these lymphatics suggest that CAM is a suitable site to study the in vivo effects of potential lymphangiogenic factors.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of Pax-1 in axial skeleton development
TL;DR: It is suggested that Pax-1 function is required for essential steps in ventral sclerotome differentiation, i.e. for the transition from the mesenchymal stage to the onset of chondrogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
The transcription factor Prox1 is a marker for lymphatic endothelial cells in normal and diseased human tissues
Jörg Wilting,Maria Papoutsi,Bodo Christ,Kypros H. Nicolaides,Constantin von Kaisenberg,J. Borges,G. Björn Stark,Kari Alitalo,Stanislav I. Tomarev,Charlotte M. Niemeyer,Jochen Rössler +10 more
TL;DR: It is shown that Prox1 is a reliable marker for LECs in normal and pathologic human tissues, coexpressed with VEGFR‐3 and CD31, which are less reliable markers for L ECs and BECs, respectively, because exceptions from their normal expression patterns are found in pathologic tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
From somites to vertebral column.
Bodo Christ,Jörg Wilting +1 more
TL;DR: The development and differentiation of the somites with respect to vertebral column formation in avian and human embryos and interactions between notochord and axial mesenchyme are reported on.
