Lineage commitments: Emphasis on embryonic-extraembryonic interfaces

Abstract

The EMBO Workshop on Lineage Commitments: Emphasis on Embryonic- Extraembryonic Interfaces-held in May 2011, demonstrated that embryonic and extraembryonic tissues play early and significant interacting roles that mutually promote each other's further and correct deployment within the mammalian conceptus. Highlighted here are those presentations that directly addressed embryonic-extraembryonic interfaces in building the mammalian fetus. © 2011 EuropeEan MoleEcular Biology Oorganization.
