    • Mechanisms of Wnt8 function in zebrafish mesoderm patterning 
      Ramel, Marie-Christine (Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)
      In vertebrate embryonic development, correct specification of tissue fates along the dorsoventral (D/V) axis is known to require the secreted signaling ligand Wnt8. Wnt8 signaling promotes ventral fates and antagonizes the ...
    • The role of wnt8 in posterior mesoderm formation 
      Kelton, Cathryn Renee (2009-05-15)
      The formation of vertebrate mesoderm relies on the integration of positional information provided by several intercellular signaling pathways, including the Wnt and Bone Morphogenic Protein (Bmp) pathways. Zygotic Wnt ...
    • The Role of Wnt8 in Ventrolateral Mesoderm Patterning and Posterior Growth 
      Baker, Kevin D (2013-10-04)
      Vertebrate dorsoventral patterning requires both Wnt8 and BMP signaling. Because of their multiple interactions, discerning roles attributable specifically to Wnt8 independent of BMP has been a challenge. For example, Wnt8 ...
