Results
Specimen 5G: embryonic day 8.0; Cdh1tm3.1Kem/Cdh1+ (more )
Note: 4-5 somites. Fix: 1%PFA Double labeled: brown - Pdgfra; blue - Cdh1 reporter (assay MGI:7548593).
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS12: head epithelial cell Present Regionally restricted 5G inset , 5G , 5H Expression was detected in the nonneural epithelium in the cranial neural fold. Co-expression with E-cadherin (lacZ reporter) was observed.
TS12: head mesenchyme Present Regionally restricted 5H , 5G inset , 5G Expression was detected in the mesenchyme underlying the nonneural epithelium in the cranial neural fold. Co-expression with E-cadherin (lacZ reporter) was observed.
