Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)
We examined systematically the ability of chick limb bud stumps to regenerate distal structures when fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-4 is applied. When amputations were made within 600 mu m of the tip and FGF-4 applied either posteriorly or both apically and posteriorly, outgrowth of stump tissues occurred and a virtually complete skeleton developed. 'Regeneration' of distal structures was correlated with reactivation of Msx-1 and Shh expression. At proximal amputation levels where FGF-4 did not lead to 'regeneration', neither Msx-1 nor Shh expression was induced. We also grafted cells from progressively more proximal levels of mouse limb buds to chick wing bud tips beneath the apical ridge and the pattern of reactivation of Msx-1 expression along the proximal distal axis of the limb buds was similar to that found in chick limb buds.
