Abstract
⺠Canonical Smad1/Smad5 signaling functions redundantly in BMP-regulated AER functions. ⺠Syndactyly of Smad1/5 mutant: reduction in PCD and increase in cell proliferation. ⺠The epithelial-mesenchymal interaction regulates the interdigital regression. ⺠Prolonged Fgf8 expression in Smad1/5 mutants as survival signal to interdigital cells ⺠Ventral ectoderm thickened after Smad1/5 inactivation and located ectopically dorsal.
