Abstract: | Mitotic activity in the neural tube was examined in +/+, and mouse embryos. The number of mitotic figures per unit area of ependymal layer (area index) was higher in embryos than in +/+ embryos. In +/+ embryos, area index was higher in the dorsal part of the neural tube than in the ventral part, whereas this pattern is disordered in embryos. In embryos, these values fluctuate. The process of nuclear migration accompanying cell division seems to be normal in the neural tube of and embryos. |
