Suppression of morphogenesis in embryonic mouse limbs exposed in vitro to excess gravityThe effect of excess gravity on in vitro mammalian limb chondrogenesis is studied. Limb buds from mice of various gestational stages were exposed to excess gravity (2.6G) using a culture centrifuge. Both forelimbs and hind limbs were cultured, and the development of various limb elements was scored after four to six days. The 2.6G force significantly depressed the development of limb elements when applied during the teratogen-sensitive period of chondrogenesis.
