Research Abstract |
Hes genes are expressed by immature progenitor cells, but not differentiated hormonal cells in the developing mouse pituitary gland. Hes genes are essential for the maintenance of progenitors during the pituitary development. Hes genes control intermediate versus anterior lobe specification during the adenohypophysis development. Hes genes are also essential for the formation of neurohypophysis.
