Apical Ectodermal Ridge (AER) activity and limb outgrowth during vertebrate development11
Limb outgrowth is controlled by a specialized group of cells called the apical ectodermal ridge (AER), a thickening of the limb epithelium, at its distal tip. This specialized thickening of ectodermal cells is responsible for maintaining the underlying mesenchymal cells in an undifferentiated and pr...
