Reference: J:193307 Wray S, et al., Spatiotemporal cell expression of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone in the prenatal mouse: evidence for an embryonic origin in the olfactory placode. Brain Res Dev Brain Res. 1989 Apr 1;46(2):309-18
Assay type: Immunohistochemistry
MGI Accession ID: MGI:5620651
Gene symbol: Gnrh1
Gene name: gonadotropin releasing hormone 1
Antibody: anti-pro-LHRH antibody (LR-5)
Detection system: Biotinylated secondary antibody/[Strept]avidin coupled to horseradish peroxidase
Assay notes: Two antibodies against the decapeptide were mentioned, but it was not specified which one was used in the assay. It is possible MGI:3043770 was used to generate these data. Both antibodies gave similar spatiotemporal patterns.
Results
Specimen 3C/D: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: telencephalon Present Regionally restricted 3D , 3C Expressed in tracks that converged at a localized point at the base of the telencephalic hemispheres. Also expressed in a few cells within the rostral telencephalon directly adjacent to this convergence point.

Specimen not shown: embryonic day 13.5 (more )
Note: Results were illustrated in Fig. 4.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS21: telencephalon Present Regionally restricted Expressed as disperse tracks throughout the tellencephalon.
TS21: diencephalon Present Regionally restricted Expressed within the rostral part.
TS21: olfactory epithelium Present
TS21: head Present Regionally restricted Expressed in tracks which originated in the olfactory epithelium and extended through the olfactory/forebrain junction into the telencephalon.
