Notch signaling in the embryonic ectoderm promotes periderm cell fate and represses mineralization of vibrissa hair follicles

Dianzheng Zhao, Yunus H. Ozekin, Erin Binne, Irene F. Choi, Aftab Taiyab, Trevor Williams, Hong Li

This study shows that Notch signaling in the embryonic ectoderm promotes periderm cell fate and prevents mineralization of vibrissa hair follicles, linking it to craniofacial development.

Depolarization induces calcium-dependent BMP4 release from mouse embryonic palate mesenchyme

Mikaela L Follmer, Trevor J. Isner, Yunus H. Ozekin, Claire H Levitt, Carolyn L. Burek, Richard K.P. Benninger, Emily Anne Bates

The paper shows depolarization induces calcium-dependent BMP4 release from mouse embryonic palate mesenchyme cells, linking ion channels to BMP signaling in craniofacial development.
