Mesenchymal Apoptosis in Mouse Limb Buds

This study aimed to perform comprehensive analysis of the proximo-distal pattern of cell death, evaluated by (TUNEL test) in cross sections of mouse limbs during prenatal development after onset of primary myogenesis. Description of variable tissues compartments of limb buds at 14th, 16th, 19th days of the gestation. Evaluations of apoptotic cells reaction in the proximal regions of limbs buds. Evaluations of apoptotic cells in the proximal regions of three development stages and distal regions of limbs buds.
