Candidate gene approach identifies multiple genes and signaling pathways downstream of Tbx4 in the developing allantois.
Loss of Tbx4 results in absence of chorio-allantoic fusion and failure of formation of the primary vascular plexus of the allantois leading to embryonic death at E10.5. We reviewed the literature for genes implicated in chorio-allantoic fusion, cavitation and vascular plexus formation, processes aff...
