Results
Specimen 3D: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: midbrain Present Regionally restricted 3D Expression in mesencephalic dopaminergic (mesDa) neurons that are distributed perpendicularly. Expression restricted to nuclei of MesDA neurons.

Specimen 3I: embryonic day 12.5; Hes1tm1Fgu/Hes1tm1Fgu (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: midbrain Present Regionally restricted 3I Authors state mesencephalic dopaminergic (mesDa) neurons are extended transversely. Expression in neurons widely distributed in midline area of the thinned midbrain.

Specimen 5C: embryonic day 13.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS21: midbrain Strong Regionally restricted 5C Intense expression in mesencephalic dopaminergic (mesDA) neurons. Expression in ventral tegmental area, oriented perpendicular to ventricular surface, well-developed in the midline.

Specimen 5F: embryonic day 13.5; Hes1tm1Fgu/Hes1tm1Fgu (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS21: midbrain Present Regionally restricted 5F Authors state mesencephalic dopaminergic (mesDA) neurons are distributed sparsely at the brain surface. Expression in neurons with short perpendicular extensions.

Specimen 6B: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: midbrain Present Regionally restricted 6B Expression in neurons condensed in the ventral midbrain. Authors report expression in substantia nigra compacta (SNc) and ventral tegmental area (VTA) similar to that of mature animals.

Specimen 6E: embryonic day 15.5; Hes1tm1Fgu/Hes1tm1Fgu (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: midbrain Weak Regionally restricted 6E Expression in neurons that are sparsely and widely distributed at the brain surface.

Specimen 7G: embryonic day 15.5; Hes1tm1Fgu/Hes1tm1Fgu (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: midbrain Present Regionally restricted 7G Expression localized mesencephalic dopaminergic (mesDA) neurons.

Specimen 9E: embryonic day 13.5; Hes1tm1Fgu/Hes1+ (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS21: hindbrain Present Regionally restricted 9E Expression in neurons invading the hindbrain. Expression in many neurons distributed in the rostral hindbrain.

Specimen 10F: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: midbrain Present 10F

Specimen 10I: embryonic day 14.5; Hes1tm1Fgu/Hes1tm1Fgu (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: midbrain Weak 10I
