Results
Specimen 3D: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Note: Cross section of embryo at the lumbar level.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: spinal cord Present Regionally restricted 3D Expression in the thoracic level was more restricted than at the lumbar level. Expression was in postmitotic neurons.
Specimen 3I: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Note: Cross section of embryo at the thoracic level.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: spinal cord Present 3I Expression was in postmitotic neurons.
Specimen not shown: embryonic day 10.5 (more )
Note: Cross section of embryo at the thoracic level.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: future spinal cord Present Regionally restricted Results were similar to the caudal region of E12 embryos.
Specimen not shown: embryonic day 11.5 (more )
Note: Cross section of embryo at the thoracic level.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS19: future spinal cord Present Regionally restricted Results were similar to the caudal region of E12 embryos.
Specimen 3N: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Note: Cross section of embryo at the thoracic level.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: spinal cord gray matter Strong Uniform 3N
Specimen 4G: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Note: Thoracic level.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: dorsal root ganglion Present 4H , 4G
TS23: sympathetic ganglion Present 4G
Specimen 5D: embryonic day 12.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: brain Present Widespread 5D Expression was detected in all parts of the brain with the exception of the forebrain, where only weak signals were seen. Expression was restricted to postmitotic neurons that had left the ventricular zone.
TS20: forebrain Weak 5D
Specimen 5I: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: brain Present Widespread 5I Expression was detected in most brain regions.
TS23: cervical ganglion Present 5I
TS23: superior cervical ganglion Present 5I
TS23: trigeminal ganglion Present 5I
Specimen 5N: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: cerebellum Strong 5N
TS23: cortical plate Strong 5N
TS23: hindbrain Strong 5N
TS23: hippocampus Strong 5N
TS23: midbrain Strong 5N
TS23: tectum Strong Non-Uniform 5N The anterior parts of the tectum displayed higher levels of transcript than the more posterior parts.
TS23: corpus striatum Strong Regionally restricted 5N
Specimen 6D: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: superior cervical ganglion Present 6D
TS23: trigeminal ganglion Present 6D
Specimen not shown: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: retina nuclear layer Present Regionally restricted Expression was detected in all cells of the inner nuclear layer.
