muscle
• at E10.75 fewer hypaxial muscle progenitor cells reach the floor of the first branchial arch
• at E10.75, fewer progenitor cells are seen in the dorsal limb and this reduction is more pronounced distally (35%) than proximally (25%)
• however, no significant change in proliferation of muscle progenitors is seen
|
• at E10.75, the number of muscle cells (MyoD+) is reduced in the dorsal limb and this reduction is more pronounced distally than proximally; however at E13.5 the size and distribution of the muscle groups is not significantly different from control
• increased apoptosis is seen in the proximal domain of the dorsal limb
• however, no significant difference is seen in the size of the tongue muscle
