Results
Specimen 1F: embryonic day 10.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: 1st branchial arch mesenchyme Present 1F
TS17: 1st branchial arch Present Regionally restricted 1F Expression is present in almost the entire mandibular arch along the distal-mesial axis, except for the most mesial region.
TS17: medial-nasal process Absent 1F There is no expression in the lingual side of the medial nasal process (the region from which upper incisors develop).
TS17: 1st branchial arch maxillary component Absent 1F No expression was seen in the maxillary process.
