Results
Specimen 1b: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Note: Triple labeled: blue - Zic2; red - Isl1 (assay MGI:7708043); green - EdU. EdU injected at E11.
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: retina ganglion cell layer retinal ganglion cell Present Regionally restricted 1d , 1b Expression was detected in ipsilateral retinal ganglion cells (RGC's) in the ventrotemporal retina. Co-label was seen with Isl1, which labels all postmitotic RGC's. Few of the RGC's were co-labeled with EdU when injected at E11.

Specimen 1f: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Note: Triple labeled: blue - Zic2; red - Isl1 (assay MGI:7708043); green - EdU. EdU injected at E12.
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: retina ganglion cell layer retinal ganglion cell Present Regionally restricted 1h , 1f Expression was detected in ipsilateral retinal ganglion cells in the ventrotemporal retina. Co-label was seen with Isl1, which labels all postmitotic RGC's. Few of the RGC's were co-labeled with EdU when injected at E12.

Specimen 1j: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Note: Triple labeled: blue - Zic2; red - Isl1 (assay MGI:7708043); green - EdU. EdU injected at E13.
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: retina ganglion cell layer retinal ganglion cell Present Regionally restricted 1j , 1l Expression was detected in ipsilateral retinal ganglion cells in the ventrotemporal retina. Co-label was seen with Isl1, which labels all postmitotic RGC's. The number of RGC's co-labeled with EdU was higher when injected at E13 than when injected at previous ages.

Specimen 1n: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Note: Triple labeled: blue - Zic2; red - Isl1 (assay MGI:7708043); green - EdU. EdU injected at E14.
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: retina ganglion cell layer retinal ganglion cell Present Regionally restricted 1p , 1n Expression was detected in ipsilateral retinal ganglion cells in the ventrotemporal retina. Co-label was seen with Isl1, which labels all postmitotic RGC's. The number of RGC's co-labeled with EdU was highest when injected at E14 than when injected at previous ages.

Specimen not shown E14-16.5: embryonic day 16.5 (more )
Note: EdU injected at E14.
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS24: retina ganglion cell layer retinal ganglion cell Present Regionally restricted Expression was detected in ipsilateral retinal ganglion cells in the ventrotemporal retina. The number of RGC's co-labeled with EdU when injected at E14 was similar between samples taken at E15.5 and E16.5.

Specimen not shown E15-16.5: embryonic day 16.5 (more )
Note: EdU injected at E15.
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS24: retina ganglion cell layer retinal ganglion cell Present Regionally restricted Expression was detected in ipsilateral retinal ganglion cells in the ventrotemporal retina. The number of RGC's co-labeled with EdU when injected at E15 was similar to when injected at E14.

Specimen not shown E13-18.5: embryonic day 18.5 (more )
Note: EdU injected at E13.
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS26: retina ganglion cell layer retinal ganglion cell Present Regionally restricted Expression was detected in ipsilateral retinal ganglion cells in the ventrotemporal retina. Some RGC's were co-labeled with EdU when injected at E13.
