anti-MSX1/HOX7 antibody
MSX1 is a transcriptional repressor that belongs to the Msh homeobox family. It plays a role in cranofacial development and, via an ionic hedgehog-controlled cascade that includes MSX1 acts in parallel with the Wnt1 network, establishes the midbrain dopaminergic progenitor domain, which gives rise to a neuronal population that is critical for normal function of the human brain. It is an excellent marker for this population of neural progenitors.
Pathologies in dopaminergic neurons result in a number of neurological diseases including Parkinson's Disease.

NCBI Summary for MSX1/HOX7
This gene encodes a member of the muscle segment homeobox gene family. The encoded protein functions as a transcriptional repressor during embryogenesis through interactions with components of the core transcription complex and other homeoproteins. It may also have roles in limb-pattern formation, craniofacial development, particularly odontogenesis, and tumor growth inhibition. Mutations in this gene, which was once known as homeobox 7, have been associated with nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate 5, Witkop syndrome, Wolf-Hirschom syndrome, and autosomoal dominant hypodontia.
