“…Tbx1 is expressed in the mesoderm of the head region in early mouse embryos and then throughout the endoderm, mesoderm, and distal ectoderm of the PA, while each arch forms, until mouse embryonic day (E)10.5 (Chapman et al, 1996;Garg et al, 2001;Lindsay et al, 2001). Tissue specific inactivation of Tbx1 has been performed using the Cre-loxP system (Arnold et al, 2006a;Arnold et al, 2006b;Jackson et al, 2014;Racedo et al, 2017;Xu et al, 2005). It was found that Tbx1 is required in all three tissues for the development of the derivative organs affected in the null mutant embryos (Arnold et al, 2006b;Choe and Crump, 2014;Racedo et al, 2017;van Bueren et al, 2010).…”
