Results
Specimen 4D: embryonic day 18.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS26: heart Present Regionally restricted 4D Expression is present in the cholinergic nerve fibers in the atrio-ventricular node, atrio-ventricular bundle, and proximal bundle branches.

Specimen 4E: embryonic day 18.5; Rettm1Cos/Rettm1Cos (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS26: heart Present Regionally restricted 4E In 2 of 6 mutant hearts there was an almost a complete absence of cholinergic nerve fibers in the atrio-ventricular node, atrio-ventricular bundle, and proximal bundle branches.

Specimen Clear reduction: embryonic day 18.5; Rettm1Cos/Rettm1Cos (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS26: heart Present Regionally restricted In 3 of 6 mutant hearts there was a clear reduction in the number of cholinergic nerve fibers in the atrio-ventricular node, atrio-ventricular bundle, and proximal bundle branches.

Specimen No reduction: embryonic day 18.5; Rettm1Cos/Rettm1Cos (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS26: heart Present Regionally restricted In 1 mutant heart (of 6) there was no reduction in the number of cholinergic nerve fibers in the atrio-ventricular node, atrio-ventricular bundle, and proximal bundle branches.

Specimen 6A: postnatal week 14-16 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: heart right ventricle Present Regionally restricted 6A Expression is present in the cholinergic nerves, including those in the right ventricle.

Specimen 6B: postnatal week 14-16; Gfra2tm1Msa/Gfra2tm1Msa (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: heart right ventricle Present Regionally restricted 6B Expression is present in the cholinergic nerves, but in the mutant their numbers are reduced 39% in the right ventricle.

Specimen 6G: postnatal week 14-16 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: impulse conducting system Present Regionally restricted 6G Expression is present in the cholinergic nerves, including those in the atrio-ventricular node.

Specimen 6H: postnatal week 14-16; Gfra2tm1Msa/Gfra2tm1Msa (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: impulse conducting system Present Regionally restricted 6H Expression is present in the cholinergic nerves, but in the mutant their numbers are reduced 59% in the atrio-ventricular node.
