Dbx1-expressing cells are necessary for the survival of the mammalian anterior neural and craniofacial structures.

Development of the vertebrate forebrain and craniofacial structures are intimately linked processes, the coordinated growth of these tissues being required to ensure normal head formation. In this study, we identify five small subsets of progenitors expressing the transcription factor dbx1 in the ce...
