Notes:
(a) Starting from E13.5, progressive increase in expression, attaining plateau values for the last 3 days of gestation equivalent to the baseline levels observed at 9.5 days.
(b) Starting from E13.5, progressive increase in expression, attaining plateau values for the last 3 days of gestation equivalent to the baseline levels observed at E9.5.
(c) 5-fold decreased expression, compared with that of E9.5.
