Journal ArticleDOI

Msx1 controls inductive signaling in mammalian tooth morphogenesis

YiPing Chen, +4 more
- 01 Oct 1996 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Msx1 is not only expressed in dental mesenchyme in response to epithelial signals, but also in turn regulates the reciprocal expression of inductive signals in the mesenchYme which then act back upon the dental epithelium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rescue of cleft palate in Msx1-deficient mice by transgenic Bmp4 reveals a network of BMP and Shh signaling in the regulation of mammalian palatogenesis.

Zunyi Zhang, +10 more
- 01 Sep 2002 - 
TL;DR: Msx1 controls a genetic hierarchy involving BMP and Shh signals that regulates the growth of the anterior region of palate during mammalian palatogenesis and provides insights into the cellular and molecular etiology of the non-syndromic clefting associated with Msx1 mutations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Making a tooth: growth factors, transcription factors, and stem cells.

Yan Ding Zhang, +6 more
- 01 May 2005 - 
TL;DR: For instance, this paper showed that stem cells are highly plastic and multipotent and could be reprogrammed into odontogenic fate and participated in tooth formation. But, the development of human tooth is largely dependent on sequential and reciprocal epithelial-mesenchymal interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Msx homeobox gene family and craniofacial development.

Sylvia R. Alappat, +3 more
- 01 Dec 2003 - 
TL;DR: This review summarizes studies on the expression, regulation, and functional analysis of Msx genes that bear relevance to craniofacial development in humans and mice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Shox2 is essential for the differentiation of cardiac pacemaker cells by repressing Nkx2-5

Ramón A. Espinoza-Lewis, +10 more
- 15 Mar 2009 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Shox2 plays an essential role in the SAN and pacemaker development by controlling a genetic cascade through the repression of Nkx2-5 in the developing heart, leading to a reduced cardiac field and aberrant heart formation.
