Stepwise participation of HGF/MET signaling in the development of migratory muscle precursors during vertebrate evolution

Abstract Background The skeletal musculature of gnathostomes, which is derived from embryonic somites, consists of epaxial and hypaxial portions. Some hypaxial muscles, such as tongue and limb muscles, undergo de-epithelialization and migration during development. Delamination and migration of these...
