Results
Specimen 4A: postnatal day 60 (more )
Note: Staining patterns were identical between male and female specimens. Embedded in methacrylate.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: salivary gland epithelium Present 4A Expression is in the basal membrane, membranes of intercellular canaliculi, and the lateral membrane. Absent in myoepithelial cells.
Specimen 4B: postnatal day 60 (more )
Note: Staining patterns were identical between male and female specimens. Embedded in methacrylate.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: salivary gland epithelium Present Regionally restricted 4B Expression is in the apical membrane of acinar cells.
Specimen 4C: postnatal day 60 (more )
Note: Staining patterns were identical between male and female specimens. Embedded in methacrylate.
