Results
Specimen 2B: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Note: Double labeled: purple - Ptf1a; reddish brown - Amy (assay MGI:7852792).
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: pancreas branching epithelium tip pancreas exocrine glandular cell Present 2B Expression overlaps completely with the exocrine cell marker Amylase (Amy) staining.

Specimen 2F: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: pancreas branching epithelium tip Weak 2F

Specimen Table S1: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: pancreas branching epithelium tip Present Regionally restricted Expression was confined to the distal tips of the pancreatic epithelial tree.

Specimen S5B: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Note: Double labeled: purple - Ptf1a; reddish brown - Cpa1 (assay MGI:7852795).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: pancreas branching epithelium tip Weak Regionally restricted S5B Weak expression was detected in the newly formed branches of the dorsal pancreas at E12.5, where it co-expressed Cpa1. Expression was downregulated in the 'cleft' region between future branches.
