TS20: mesenchyme derived from neural crest Present Regionally restricted 2G Expression in abundant mesenchymal cells in capsule surrounding thymus epithelial rudiment.

Specimen 2H: embryonic day 12.5; Pax3Sp/Pax3Sp (more )
Note: Triple labeled: green - Pdgfra; red - cytokeratin; blue - DAPI.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: mesenchyme derived from neural crest Weak Regionally restricted 2H Authors report a striking deficiency of expression in cells adjacent to the thymic rudiment.
