Results
Specimen 6F: embryonic day 12.5; Prox1tm1Gco/Prox1+ (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: lymphatic system Strong Regionally restricted 6F Strong expression in a subpopulation of cells in vicinity of cardinal vein - corresponding to lymphatic endothelial cells.
TS20: blood vessel endothelium Weak Regionally restricted 6F Weak expression in vascular endothelial cells.

Specimen 6H: embryonic day 12.5; Prox1tm1Gco/Prox1tm1Gco (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: lymphatic system Ambiguous 6H Authors state no strongly labeled cells were found, supporting the concept of arrested lymphatic vasculature development
TS20: blood vessel endothelium Weak Regionally restricted 6H Weak expression in vascular endothelial cells.

Specimen E14.5 not shown: embryonic day 14.5; Prox1tm1Gco/Prox1tm1Gco (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: lymphatic system Ambiguous No strong expression in E14.5 homozygous embryos.
