Embryonic gene expression patterns of TGF β 1, β 2 and β 3 suggest different developmental functions in vivo
Abstract
We have compared the expression of the genes encoding transforming growth factors β1, β2 and β3 during mouse embryogenesis from 9.5 to 16.5 days p.c. using in situ hybridisation to cellular RNAs. Each gene has a different expression pattern, which gives some indication of possible biological function in vivo. All three genes appear to be involved in chondro ossification, though each is expressed in a different cell type. Transcripts of each gene are also present in embryonic epithelia. Epithelial expression of TGF β1, β2 and β3 RNA is associated with regions of active morphogenesis involving epithelial-mesenchymal inter actions. In addition, widespread epithelial expression of TGF β2 RNA can be correlated with epithelial differentiation per se. The localisation of TGF β2 RNA in neuronal tissue might also be correlated with differentiation. Finally both TGF β1 and β2 transcripts are seen in regions actively undergoing cardiac septation and valve formation, suggesting some interaction of these growth factors in this developmental process.

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.
