Note: Sample was postfixed in 4% paraformaldehyde.
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: mesomere 2 Present Regionally restricted 6t Signal showed the confluence of the preisthmic transverse pattern with the longitudinal band coursing along the alar-basal boundary.
TS22: midbrain neuron Present Regionally restricted 6t A clump of periaqueductal positive neurons migrated dorsalward.
TS22: midbrain tegmentum Present Regionally restricted 6t Radial ventral distribution of Nkx2.2-positive cells in the laterorubral tegmental area was observed.
