Introduction

How do you establish the anatomical axes of the embryo?

anteroposterior axis (A-P) sagittal plane
- first break in embryonic symmetry
- BMP, Wnt, transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta), fibroblast growth factor (FGF)
- Developmental Mechanism - Anteroposterior Axis
dorsoventral axis (D-V) longitudinal plane
- Developmental Mechanism - Dorsoventral Axis
left-right axis (L-R) transverse plane
- Nodal induces its own expression and that of Lefty, a Nodal feedback inhibitor with a longer diffusion range.
- Developmental Mechanism - Left-Right Axis

Axes - "the plural of Axis".

This search now requires a manual link as the original PubMed extension has been disabled. The displayed list of references do not reflect any editorial selection of material based on content or relevance. References also appear on this list based upon the date of the actual page viewing. References listed on the rest of the content page and the associated discussion page (listed under the publication year sub-headings) do include some editorial selection based upon both relevance and availability.
