Detection system: Biotinylated secondary antibody/[Strept]avidin coupled to Cy3
Results
Specimen 4B: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: lung epithelium Present Non-Uniform 4B Expression was high at branch tips and markedly decreased to an undetectable level distal to the tips.
TS22: lung mesenchyme Present Regionally restricted 4B Expression was detected in mesenchymal cells that express Col4a1/Col4a2. The immunopositive cells appeared to align into primitive tubules.

Specimen 4E: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: lung epithelium Present Non-Uniform 4E Expression was high at branch tips and markedly decreased to an undetectable level distal to the tips. Some of the immunopositive epithelial cells appeared disorganized and displayed irregular cell shapes. In some areas, immunopositive processes from these cells interdigitated with neighboring immunopositive mesenchymal cells.
TS22: lung mesenchyme Present 4E Expression co-localized with laminin in the mesenchyme.

Specimen not shown: embryonic day 10.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: lung epithelium Present Non-Uniform Expression was high at branch tips and markedly decreased to an undetectable level distal to the tips.

Specimen not shown: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: lung epithelium Present Non-Uniform Expression was high at branch tips and markedly decreased to an undetectable level distal to the tips. Beginning at E12.5, some of the immunopositive epithelial cells appeared disorganized and displayed irregular cell shapes. In some areas, immunopositive processes from these cells interdigitated with neighboring immunopositive mesenchymal cells.
TS20: lung mesenchyme Present

Specimen not shown: embryonic day 16.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS24: lung epithelium Present Non-Uniform Expression was high at branch tips and markedly decreased to an undetectable level distal to the tips. Some of the immunopositive epithelial cells appeared disorganized and displayed irregular cell shapes. In some areas, immunopositive processes from these cells interdigitated with neighboring immunopositive mesenchymal cells.
TS24: lung mesenchyme Present
