Abstract: | The role of growth factors in development is under analysis on three main fronts: examination of patterns of growth factor expression in embryogenesis, studies of biological activity in vitro, and mutational analysis in vivo. Recent findings indicate that growth factors control developmental decisions, are strictly controlled in their delivery to responding cells, and act in conjunction to create tissue-specific regulatory networks. |
