Induction of floor plate differentiation by contact-dependent, homeogenetic signals

Placzek, Marysia, Jessell, Thomas M., Dodd, Jane·1993·Development

Abstract

The floor plate is located at the ventral midline of the neural tube and has been implicated in neural cell patterning and axon guidance. To address the cellular mechanisms involved in floor plate differentiation, we have used an assay that monitors the expression of floorplate-specific antigens in neural plate explants cultured in the presence of inducing tissues. Contact-mediated signals from both the notochord and the floor plate act directly on neural plate cells to induce floor plate differentiation. Floor plate induction is initiated medially by a signal from the notochord, but appears to be propagated to more lateral cells by homeogenetic signals that derive from medial floor plate cells. The response of neural plate cells to inductive signals declines with embryonic age, suggesting that the mediolateral extent of the floor plate is limited by a loss of competence of neural cells. The rostral boundary of the floor plate at the midbrain-forebrain junction appears to result from the lack of inducing activity in prechordal mesoderm and the inability of rostral neural plate cells to respond to inductive signals.

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.
