Molecular Control of Interdigital Cell Death and Cell Differentiation by Retinoic Acid during Digit Development

Molecular Control of Interdigital Cell Death and Cell Differentiation by Retinoic Acid during Digit Development

The precise coordination of cell death and cell differentiation during the formation of developing digits is essential for generating properly shaped limbs. Retinoic acid (RA) has a fundamental role in digit development; it promotes or inhibits the molecular expression of several critical genes. Thi...
