Organogenesis and pattern formation in the mouse: RNA distribution patterns suggest a role for Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2A (BMP-2A)
Abstract
Bone morphogenetic protein-2A (BMP-2A) is a member of the transforming growth factor β (TGF β) gene family that has been implicated in cartilage and bone formation. Here we use in situ hybridization to show that BMP-2A RNA is expressed in a variety of embryonic epithelial and mesenchymal tissues outside of the developing skeletal system, including cell populations known to play important roles in morphogenesis. Thus, high levels of transcripts are found in developing limb buds (ventral ectoderm and apical ectodermal ridge), heart (myocardium of the atrioventricular canal), whisker follicles (ectodermal placodes, hair matrix and precortex cells), tooth buds (epithelial buds, dental papilla and odontoblasts), and craniofacial mesenchyme, as well as a number of other sites. The expression patterns of BMP-2A are different from those of TGF β-1, -2 and -3, and this is illustrated in detail in the developing whisker follicles. These results suggest that BMP-2A plays multiple roles in morphogenesis and pattern formation in the vertebrate embryo.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
