Reference: J:88054 Mesnard D, et al., The anterior-posterior axis emerges respecting the morphology of the mouse embryo that changes and aligns with the uterus before gastrulation. Curr Biol. 2004 Feb 3;14(3):184-96
Assay type: RNA in situ
MGI Accession ID: MGI:7628395
Gene symbol: Fgf8
Gene name: fibroblast growth factor 8
Probe: Fgf8 probe
Probe preparation: Antisense labelled with digoxigenin RNA
Results
Specimen 4A left: embryonic day 6.75 (more )
Note: Double labeled: blue - Fgf8 and Cer1.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS9: embryo Present Regionally restricted 4A left Expressed in the posterior region. The domains of expression of Cer1 and Fgf8 were diametrically opposite to each other. The axis passing through the center of the two expression domains was almost parallel to both the long axis of the embryo and the left-right axis of the uterus.

Specimen 4C-1: embryonic day 6.25 (more )
Note: Double labeled: blue - Fgf8 and Cer1.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS8: embryo Present Regionally restricted 4C-1 Expressed in the posterior region. The axis passing through the center of the two expression domains (Fgf8/Cer1) was oriented toward being parallel to the long axis of the embryo.

Specimen 4C-2: embryonic day 6.25 (more )
Note: Double labeled: blue - Fgf8 and Cer1.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS8: embryo Present Regionally restricted 4C-2 Expressed in the posterior region. The axis passing through the center of the two expression domains (Fgf8/Cer1) was oriented toward being parallel to the long axis of the embryo.

Specimen 4C-3: embryonic day 6.25 (more )
Note: Double labeled: blue - Fgf8 and Cer1.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS8: embryo Present Regionally restricted 4C-3 Expressed in the posterior region. The axis passing through the center of the two expression domains (Fgf8/Cer1) was oriented toward being parallel to the long axis of the embryo.
