Purpose: Among the few studies that have examined the development of the anterior abdominal wall, several are based on incomplete “series”, substituted in many cases by non-human specimens. Material ...

The third wave of macrophages derives from hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) that are formed in the aorta-gonad-mesonephros (AGM) region of the embryo and migrate to, and colonize, the fetal liver. These ...
