Results
Specimen 5I: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: lung mesenchyme Present Regionally restricted 5I Expression was detected in mesenchymal cells located at some distance from the epithelial tubules.
TS23: lung epithelium Absent 5I Expression was absent from the alveolar septa.
Specimen 5J: embryonic day 15.5; Pdgfatm1Cbet/Pdgfatm1Cbet (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: lung mesenchyme Present Regionally restricted 5J Expression was detected in mesenchymal cells located at some distance from the epithelial tubules. Expression was the same in mutant and wild type.
TS23: lung epithelium Absent 5J Expression was absent from the alveolar septa. Expression was the same in mutant and wild type.
Specimen 5K: postnatal day 1 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS27: lung connective tissue Present Regionally restricted 5K Expression was detected in mesenchymal cells away from the epithelial tubules.
TS27: alveolar septum Absent 5K
Specimen 5L: postnatal day 1; Pdgfatm1Cbet/Pdgfatm1Cbet (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS27: lung connective tissue Present Regionally restricted 5L Expression was detected in mesenchymal cells away from the epithelial tubules.
TS27: alveolar septum Absent 5L
Specimen 5M: postnatal day 14 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: lung connective tissue Present Regionally restricted 5M Expression was detected in mesenchymal cells away from the epithelial tubules.
