Results
Specimen A,D,G: embryonic day 11.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS19: blood vessel Strong Uniform 6G , 6A , 6D Expression is highlighted in the cranial vasculature.
TS19: dorsal aorta Strong Uniform 6G , 6A

Specimen B,E,H: embryonic day 11.5; Hhextm1Cwb/Hhextm1Cwb (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS19: blood vessel Weak Regionally restricted 6B , 6E In this mutant, the vascular smooth muscle cells are absent in some vessels.
TS19: dorsal aorta Weak 6B , 6H In this mutant there are fewer vascular smooth muscle cells in the dorsal aorta.

Specimen C,F,I: embryonic day 11.5; Hhextm1Cwb/Hhextm1Cwb (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS19: blood vessel Absent 6C , 6F In this severely affected mutant, there are no vascular smooth muscle cells in the cranial vasculature.
TS19: dorsal aorta Trace 6C , 6I In this severely affected mutant there are few vascular smooth muscle cells in the dorsal aorta.

Specimen Not Shown: embryonic day 9.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: arterial system Present
TS15: venous system Present

Specimen Not Shown: embryonic day 9.5; Hhextm1Cwb/Hhextm1Cwb (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: arterial system Weak There are subtle differences in this mutant. Expression is generally decreased, especially in the cranial vasculature.
TS15: venous system Weak There are subtle differences in this mutant. Expression is generally decreased, especially in the cranial vasculature.

Specimen Not Shown: embryonic day 10.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: arterial system Present
TS17: venous system Present

Specimen Not Shown: embryonic day 10.5; Hhextm1Cwb/Hhextm1Cwb (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
