Embryo Tissue Transplantation in Development
Description
Embryo tissue transplantation helps scientists study how cells become specific tissues during development. Developmental biologists focus on the molecular signals and cell interactions that tell a group of cells what to become. This approach is useful for tracing how those early instructions shape growing embryos.

Transcript
Scientists in the field of developmental biology use transplantation studies as a tool to investigate cellular interactions that are required for proper organogenesis. In this procedure, embryonic tissue is carefully dissected from a donor and transplanted to a host during early embryogenesis. Host embryos are then examined ...
