The Role of FGFR4 in Trigeminal Placode Cell Development
<p>In vertebrate embryos, the ophthalmic trigeminal (opV) placode contributes sensory neurons to the trigeminal ganglion during development of the peripheral nervous system. FGFR4 is expressed transiently in the trigeminal placode as cells undergo an epithelial-mesenchymal transition and begin to …

The Role of Wnt Signaling in Development of the Ophthalmic Trigeminal Placode.
<p>Cranial placodes are ectodermal regions that contribute extensively to the vertebrate peripheral nervous system. The development of the ophthalmic trigeminal (opV) placode, which gives rise only to sensory neurons of the ophthalmic lobe of the trigeminal ganglion, is a well-studied model of …

The Role of Pax3 in Neuronal Differentiation of the Ophthalmic (OpV) Trigeminal Placode and Neural Tube during Chicken Embryonic Development
… at understanding tissue interactions involved in trigeminal ophthalmic (opV) placode development. While Pax3 expression coincides with opV neuron specification, the function of Pax3 in these cells has not previously been investigated. Splotch mutant mice (which lack Pax3) have a reduced trigeminal …

IDENTIFICATION OF KEY MOLECULES IN PLACODE-DERIVED NEURONS THAT COORDINATE CHICK TRIGEMINAL GANGLIOGENESIS
The trigeminal nerve is the largest of the cranial nerves, possessing three main branches (ophthalmic, maxillary, and mandibular) and relaying sensations of pain, touch, and temperature from the face and head to the brain. Cell bodies of this nerve are positioned in the trigeminal ganglion, which …
