Assay
Reference: J:43464 Matise MP, et al., Expression patterns of developmental control genes in normal and Engrailed-1 mutant mouse spinal cord reveal early diversity in developing interneurons. J Neurosci. 1997 Oct 15;17(20):7805-16
Assay type: Immunohistochemistry
MGI Accession ID: MGI:5467551
Gene symbol: Lhx5
Gene name: LIM homeobox protein 5
Antibody: 4F2
Detection system: Secondary antibody coupled to fluorescein
Assay notes: The antibody used in this assay recognizes two genes.
Results
Specimen 5b & 5c: embryonic day 9.5 (more )
Note: Double labeled: green - Lhx1 and Lhx5; red - En1 (assay MGI:5467545)
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: future spinal cord Present Regionally restricted 5b , 5c Expression was detected in the intermediate region. At the ventral limit of expression, a subset of expressing cells also express En1.

Specimen 5d: embryonic day 11.5 (more )
Note: Double labeled: green - Lhx1 and Lhx5; red - En1 (assay MGI:5467545)
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS19: future spinal cord Present Regionally restricted 5d Expression was detected in interneurons. Some co-expression was noted with En1, but the ventral-most cells did not co-express En1 at this stage.
TS19: sclerotome Absent 5d

Specimen 7a & 7c: embryonic day 9.5 (more )
Note: Double labeled: green - Lhx1 and Lhx5; red - Pax2 (assay MGI:5467552)
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: future spinal cord Present Regionally restricted 7a , 7c In midthoracic spinal cord, expression in the ventral intermediate region overlaps with Pax2.

Specimen 7d & 7f: embryonic day 9.5 (more )
Note: Double labeled: green - Lhx1 and Lhx5; red - Pax2 (assay MGI:5467552)
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: future spinal cord Present Regionally restricted 7f , 7d Expression was detected in dorsal and ventral domains and overlaps with Pax2. Staining in the ventral intermediate region is ventral to the sulcus limitans.

Specimen not shown: embryonic day 11.5 (more )
Note: Also stained for Pax2 (assay MGI:5467552)
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS19: future spinal cord Present Regionally restricted Expression in the ventral horn showed less overlap with Pax2 at E11.5. However, many cells in the intermediate region continue co-expression. There is only partial overlap of expression with Pax2 in the dorsal horn.
