Shh represses polarizing region proliferation and promotes apoptosis. Pearson's χ2 test reveals no significant difference in G1-phase cells in distal mesenchyme between untreated and HH20/21 cyclopamine-treated embryos at 48 h (P=0.732) and 72 h (P=0.0842, A). However, there is a significant difference in polarizing region cells at 48 h (P<0.0001) and 72 h (P<0.0001), indicating an increased rate of proliferation. Apoptosis is detectable in the posterior necrotic zone of untreated wing buds (B, n=6/6), but undetectable in HH20/21 cyclopamine-treated wing buds at 72 h (C, n=7/7). Scale bars: 500 μm.
