  • Title: Control of growth related to pattern specification in chick wing-bud mesenchyme.
    Author: Cooke J, Summerbell D.
    Journal: J Embryol Exp Morphol; 1981 Oct; 65 Suppl():169-85. PubMed ID: 7334307.
    Abstract:
    The distribution of raised mitotic index, and the co-incidence of this with lowered cell packing density, has been studied across the anteroposterior dimension of the terminal 500 mum of chick wing buds following various numbers of hours signalling from an anteriorly grafted extra Zone of Polarizing Activity (ZPA). The results show propagation of the situation that causes these correlated phenomena, from graft-host interface essentially right across the limb mesenchyme, frequently within 8 h. This contrasts with the much slower and more local succession of changes in position memory, for differentiation of a duplicated limb pattern, that also occurs in mesenchyme relatively close the the graft after this operation. The results are discussed, in relation to current ideas about the control of pattern during limb development.
