The developmental changes in certain glycoconjugates during the development of Meckel's cartilage in the mouse

Abstract

Introduction: Glycoconjugates are molecules with a carbohydrate bounded to proteins. The terminal sugars of glycoconjugates are specific identified by lectins. Glycoconjugates play an important role in various developmental processes. This study examines the developmental changes in certain glycoconjugates during the development of Meckel's cartilage through lectin histochemistry.
