Summary

Fibroblast growth factor (Fgf) and muscle segment homeobox (Msx) gene expression in cranial base development differs from other skeletal sites. Msx1 was not detected, while Fgf genes showed varied localization patterns.

Determination

During embryogenesis, cells become progressively committed to different fates through a two-step process: specification followed by determination. Specification is demonstrated by removing a segment of an early embryo, “neutrally” culturing the tissue in vitro—for example, in a petri dish with simple medium—and then observing the derivatives. If the cultured region gives rise to cell types that it would normally generate in the embryo, this means that it is specified. In contrast, determination...
