Evidence for Fgf and Wnt regulation of Lhx2 during limb development via two limb-specific Lhx2-associated cis-regulatory modules

IntroductionIn vertebrate limb morphogenesis, wingless-related integration site (Wnt) proteins and fibroblast growth factors (Fgfs) secreted from the apical ectodermal ridge (AER) coordinate proximodistal outgrowth. Fgfs also sustain sonic hedgehog (Shh) in the zone of polarizing activity (ZPA). Shh...
