Fasciculation and guidance of spinal motor axons in the absence of FGFR2 signaling.

During development, fibroblast growth factors (FGF) are essential for early patterning events along the anterior-posterior axis, conferring positional identity to spinal motor neurons by activation of different Hox codes. In the periphery, signaling through one of four fibroblast growth factor recep...
