Emerging asymmetry and embryonic patterning in early mouse development

Janet Rossant et al. Dev Cell. 2004 Aug.

Abstract

Recent studies have revealed asymmetries in the mouse zygote and preimplantation embryo, well before the establishment of anterior-posterior polarity after implantation. Whether these asymmetries are causally related to embryonic patterning or are coincidental outcomes of the topology of normal development remains uncertain.
