Expression patterns in mouse embryos of neuroleukin/glucose-6-phosphate isomerase and autocrine motility factor receptor.
The pattern of expression by using in situ hybridization in whole mouse embryos of the neuroleukin/glucose-6-phosphate isomerase (NK/GPI) gene and its receptor (AMF-R) is reported. NK/GPI expression was first seen at embryonic day 9 whereas AMF-R was detected at embryonic day 8; both were detected up to day 12 with NK/GPI showing peaking in the limbs around day 11. The main regions of expression are limb buds, spinal cord and brain. This work contributes to understanding how both proteins act in the development of somatosensory and motoric neural structures.
