โฆ Synopsis
Apoptotic cell death in the developing limb of mouse fetuses was examined sequentially on days 11-15 of gestation by means of Nile blue (NB) sulfate staining with special reference to its relation to limb morphogenesis. With some exceptions, programmed cell death (PCD) in the hand and foot was observed in the mesenchyme but not in the surface ectoderm. We found that during digital formation PCD begins at the proximal portion of the interdigital

## Abstract ## BACKGROUND The mechanism underlying the development of aberrant phalangeal pads and dermal ridge configurations in malformed limbs is not well understood. The forelimbs of __Hammertoe__ (__Hm__) mutant mouse fetuses were examined sequentially to clarify the relationship between the
