Little is known about human fp development because of the lack of tissue accessibility.
Highlights floor plate fp cells can be derived from human embryonic stem cells derivation of fp cells is dependent on an early exposure to high levels of sonic hedgehog the fp generated defaults to an anterior positional identity fp is shifted towards posterior identity in response to wnt and other caudalizing signals.
Here we report the efficient derivation of.
The floor plate is a structure integral to the developing nervous system of vertebrate organisms.
The floor plate fp is a critical signaling center during neural development located along the ventral midline of the embryo.
