Single-cell profiling of penta- and tetradactyl mouse limb buds identifies mesenchymal progenitors controlling digit numbers and identities by Victorio Palacio, Anna Pancho, Angela Morabito, Jonas Malkmus, Zhisong He, Geoffrey Soussi, Rolf Zeller, Barbara Treutlein, Aimée Zuniga

“…Here, we leverage the anterior digit and identity loss in Grem1 tetradactyl mouse limb buds to identify early specified limb bud mesenchymal progenitor (LMP) populations whose size and distribution is governed by spatial modulation of BMP activity and SHH signaling. Distal-autopodial LMPs (dLMP) express signature genes required for autopod and digit development, and alterations affecting the dLMP population size prefigure the changes in digit numbers that characterize specific congenital malformations. …”
