Phase separation and chondrogenesis

As to its driving force see R. A. Fotya and M. S. Steinberg, “The differential adhesion hypothesis: a direct evaluation,” Dev. Biol.,  278 , 255 (2005) [this is about cadherins.]

 Newman still maintains his idea that reaction-diffusion systems are far from sideline: Nature Rev. Mol. Cell Biol.,  8 (6) (2007) Correspondence [doi:10.1038/nrm1830] However, he did not give any example better than mentioned in this book.

A preliminary result of the `phase separation model’ may be found in Y.Oono and A. Shinozaki, Forma  4 , 75 (1989) [This is an invited review of cell dynamical systems.]
