Results
Specimen 2A: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Note: Double labeled: reddish brown - Cpa1; purple - Myc (assay MGI:7852675).
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: pancreas branching epithelium tip pancreas exocrine glandular cell Present 2A Exocrine cell marker. Expression overlaps completely with Myc staining.

Specimen 2D: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Note: Double labeled: reddish brown - Cpa1; purple - Neurog3 (assay MGI:7852705).
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: pancreas branching epithelium tip pancreas exocrine glandular cell Present 2D Exocrine cell marker.
TS22: pancreas branching epithelium trunk Absent 2D Expression did not overlap with Neurog3 staining in the trunk.

Specimen 2G: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: pancreas branching epithelium tip Strong Regionally restricted 2G Expression was detected in the newly formed branches of the dorsal pancreas at E12.5. Expression was downregulated in the 'cleft' region between future branches.

Specimen 2H: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Note: Double labeled: reddish brown - Cpa1; purple - Neurog3 (assay MGI:7852705).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS21: pancreas branching epithelium tip Present Regionally restricted 2H Expression was detected in the newly formed branches of the dorsal pancreas at E12.5. Expression was downregulated in the 'cleft' region between future branches. Expression did not overlap with Neurog3 staining in the trunk.

Specimen S5A: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Note: Double labeled: reddish brown - Cpa1; purple - Myc (assay MGI:7852675).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: pancreas branching epithelium tip Present Regionally restricted S5A Expression was detected in the newly formed branches of the dorsal pancreas at E12.5, where it co-expressed Myc. Expression was downregulated in the 'cleft' region between future branches.

Specimen S5B: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Note: Double labeled: reddish brown - Cpa1; purple - Ptf1a (assay MGI:7852679).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: pancreas branching epithelium tip Present Regionally restricted S5B Expression was detected in the newly formed branches of the dorsal pancreas at E12.5, where it co-expressed Ptf1a. Expression was downregulated in the 'cleft' region between future branches.
