Results
Specimen 1D: embryonic day 13.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note

Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS21: epidermis Absent 1E
TS21: dermis Present Patchy 1E included a few intensely stained axonal sections

Specimen 2E: embryonic day 14.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: epidermis Absent 2E
TS22: dermis Weak Patchy 2E Only the upper mesenchyme sometimes showed patches of staining.

Specimen 2F: embryonic day 14.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: epidermis Absent 2F
TS22: dermis Strong Regionally restricted 2F Staining was restricted to somitic cells and a layer of dermal myoblasts.

Specimen 2G: embryonic day 14.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: dermis Strong Regionally restricted 2G Expressed in several axonal sections in the upper dermis.

Specimen 3D: embryonic day 15.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: hair epidermal placode Present Non-Uniform 3D Expressed in most epithelial cells of the hair plugs. Staining intensity ranged from almost negative on the short, anterior side to very bright on the longer, posterior side of the hair plug.
TS23: dermis Present Regionally restricted 3D Weak expression in a few cells just below the dermal epithelial junction. Bright staining in several axonal sections.

Specimen 3E: embryonic day 15.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: hair epidermal placode Present Regionally restricted 3E Usually only the outer cells were stained, whereas the cells in the center and those facing the dermal cell condensation were negative.

Specimen 5D: embryonic day 17.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS25: hair epidermal placode Strong Regionally restricted 5D Expressed in the upper caudal epithelium.
TS25: integumental system gland Present Regionally restricted 5D Expressed in the sebaceous gland anlage.
TS25: hair root sheath Present Regionally restricted 5D Expressed in the mesenchymal sheath.
TS25: hair follicle dermal papilla Present 5D
TS25: dermis Moderate Regionally restricted 5D Expressed in the interfollicular mesenchyme.

Specimen 5E: embryonic day 17.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS25: hair root sheath Present Regionally restricted 5E Expressed in the mesenchymal sheath.
TS25: hair follicle dermal papilla Present 5E
TS25: dermis Present Regionally restricted 5E Expressed in the interfollicular mesenchyme.

Specimen 6F: embryonic day 18.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS26: hair follicle dermal papilla Present 6F
TS26: hair root sheath Present 6F
TS26: hair follicle Present 6F Expressed in the mesenchymal sheath and dermal papilla of the tylotrich follicle, elongated awl follicles with increased staining in the upper follicle epithelium and awl hair plug.
TS26: hair epidermal placode Very strong Regionally restricted 6F Staining was negative in awl placodes and many awl hair plugs, but very intense in the upper epithelium of elongating awl follicles.

Specimen 7C: postnatal day 0 (more )
Note: E19, day of birth
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS27: hair outer root sheath Present Regionally restricted 7C Expressed in the upper outer root sheath above the sebaceousg land anlage.

Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS27: hair follicle dermal papilla Present
TS27: hair root sheath Present Regionally restricted Expressed in the mesenchymal sheath.
TS27: hair epidermal placode Moderate Regionally restricted Expressed in the zigzag placodes.
