Regulation of multipotency and self-renewal in neural crest stem cells: analysis of foxd3 function in diverse neural crest cell populations

During vertebrate development, neural crest (NC) cells migrate from the dorsal neural tube and generate a wide variety of cell types throughout the embryo including neurons, glia, melanocytes, smooth muscle, cartilage and bone. The formation of NC progenitors has been extensively studied, yet molecu...
