Branch Mode Selection during Early Lung Development

The steady state distributions of FGF10, SHH and receptor Ptc concentrations.

The steady state distributions of (a,d) FGF10, (b,e) SHH, and (c,f) Ptc for parameter values as in Table 1 (a–c) or with (d–f). The upper panel presents an example of FGF10 distribution during the lateral branching mode, while the lower panel provides an example for FGF10 distribution during a bifurcation branching mode. Note that the expression patterns of SHH, FGF and Ptc are shown in Figure S7.
