Results
Specimen 4A: embryonic day 14.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: nasal cavity epithelium Present Regionally restricted 4A Expression is in the ventrolateral folds of the nasal conchae and the lateral sides of the nasal columella.
Specimen 4B: embryonic day 14.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: nasal cavity epithelium Present Regionally restricted 4B Expression is in the nasal turbinates and on the lateral nasal walls just dorsal to the palatal shelves.
Specimen 4C: embryonic day 14.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: nasal cavity epithelium Present Regionally restricted 4C In a more posterior section, expression is found in discrete segments along the lateral nasal walls, the mid-lateral part of the nasal columella, and the ventrolateral extremities of the columella.
Specimen 4D: embryonic day 14.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: nasal cavity epithelium Present Regionally restricted 4D Expression is at the site where the lateral nasal walls fuse with the ventrolateral extremities of the nasal columella.
