The role of short-range and long-range signaling in mesoderm induction and patterning duringXenopusdevelopment

摘要: Abstract Recent research in Xenopus mesoderm induction has focused on the molecular nature of inducing molecules and yielded several candidates. However, little is known about mechanism action within intact embryo. We review here , focusing long-range short-range modes cell–cell communication way which concentration signal may be attenuated.
