| abstractText | This study is a continuing investigation of the effect of the brachypod mouse mutation on cell interactions and chondrogenesis during early limb development. In this report, cell adhesiveness was assessed in fused fragments of brachypod and normal limb-bud mesenchyme. Examination of the interface of fused distal postaxial limb fragments show brachypod limb mesenchyme to be more adhesive than normal limb mesenchyme. Chondrogenesis within brachypod fragments is delayed and less extensive than in normal fragments. In addition, chondrogenesis within normal fragments is not affected by the juxtaposition of the brachypod fragment, and vice versa. |
