Assay type: Immunohistochemistry
MGI Accession ID: MGI:7716435
Gene symbol: Fabp5
Gene name: fatty acid binding protein 5, epidermal
Antibody: Anti-EFABP
Detection system: Secondary antibody coupled to Cy3
Results
Specimen 2a: postnatal week 4 (more )
Note: Double labeled: red - Fabp5; green - Lgals3 (assay MGI:7716436).
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: epiphyseal plate ossification zone osteoclast Absent 2a Staining did not overlap with Lgals3 (MAC-2)-positive osteoclasts of the proximal tibia.
Specimen 8a: postnatal week 4 (more )
Note: Confocal laser-scanning of 20 um thick sections was used for three-dimensional analysis.
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: epiphyseal plate ossification zone perivascular cell Present 8a Septoclasts at postnatal week 4 had several long processes that elongated toward the transverse septa.
Specimen 8b: postnatal week 4 (more )
Note: Confocal laser-scanning of 20 um thick sections was used for three-dimensional analysis.
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: epiphyseal plate ossification zone perivascular cell Present 8b A number of short (approximately 3 um in length) spines from the septoclast apexes were observed.
Specimen 8c: postnatal week 9 (more )
Note: Confocal laser-scanning of 20 um thick sections was used for three-dimensional analysis.
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: epiphyseal plate ossification zone perivascular cell Present 8c In postnatal week 9 mice, immunopositive septoclasts were smaller than those of postnatal week 4 mice and there were fewer cell processes.
Specimen 8d: postnatal week 9 (more )
Note: Confocal laser-scanning of 20 um thick sections was used for three-dimensional analysis.
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: epiphyseal plate ossification zone perivascular cell Present 8d Short (approximately 1 um) spines extended from the septoclast apexes to the transverse septa.
