Reference: J:117269 Lavado A, et al., Prox1 expression patterns in the developing and adult murine brain. Dev Dyn. 2007 Feb;236(2):518-24
Assay type: Immunohistochemistry
MGI Accession ID: MGI:5693811
Gene symbol: Prox1
Gene name: prospero homeobox 1
Antibody: anti-NH-Prox1
Detection system: Secondary antibody coupled to Cy3
Assay notes: Similar results were obtained using two antibodies; it is possible MGI:5555854 was used to obtain some or all of the pictured data.
Results
Specimen 2A: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Note: Double labeled: red - Prox1; green - Tubb3 (assay MGI:5693855).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: ganglionic eminence Present Regionally restricted 2A Expression is primarily present in the subventricular zone; a few expressing cells are found in the mantle zone. Not all cells co-express the neuronal marker.

Specimen 2B: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Note: Dividing cells were labeled with an antibody to phosphorylated histone; these cells are green.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: ganglionic eminence Present Regionally restricted 2B Expression is primarily present in post-mitotic cells. Most expression is found in the subventricular zone; a few expressing cells are found in the mantle zone.

Specimen 2C: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Note: Double labeled: red - Prox1; green - Tubb3 (assay MGI:5693855).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: ganglionic eminence Present Regionally restricted 2C Expression is primarily present in the subventricular zone; a few expressing cells are found in the mantle zone. The inset is a higher magnification, illustrating examples of double labeling. However, not all cells are double labeled.

Specimen 2D: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Note: Dividing cells were labeled with an antibody to phosphorylated histone; these cells are green.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: ganglionic eminence Present Regionally restricted 2D Expression is primarily present post-mitotic cells. Expression is primarily present in the subventricular zone; a few expressing cells are found in the mantle zone.

Specimen 2E: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Note: Double labeled: red - Prox1; green - Tubb3 (assay MGI:5693855).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: hypothalamus Present Regionally restricted 2E Expression is present in the preoptic area.

Specimen 2F: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Note: Dividing cells were labeled with an antibody to phosphorylated histone; these cells are green.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: hypothalamus Present Regionally restricted 2F Expression is primarily present post-mitotic cells, in this case in the preoptic area.

Specimen 2G: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Note: Double labeled: red - Prox1; green - Tubb3 (assay MGI:5693855).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: hippocampus Present Regionally restricted 2G Expression is present in dentate gyrus neuroepithelium.

Specimen 2H: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Note: Dividing cells were labeled with an antibody to phosphorylated histone; these cells are green.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: hippocampus Present Regionally restricted 2H Expression is present in dentate gyrus neuroepithelium. Unlike in other areas of the brain, expressing cells are often still dividing.
