Results
Specimen 4a: embryonic day 11.5 (more )
Note: Embryo fixed in 4% formaldehyde/70% methanol.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS19: esophagus epithelium Present 4a At this age expression was apically localized, indicating a pseudostratified single columnar epithelium.

Specimen 4b: embryonic day 13.5 (more )
Note: Embryo fixed in 4% formaldehyde/70% methanol.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS21: esophagus epithelium Present 4b At this age expression appears dispersed/disturbed, suggesting a change in the shape/size and arrangement/orientation of the epithelial cells.

Specimen 4c: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Note: Embryo fixed in 4% formaldehyde/70% methanol.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: esophagus epithelium Present 4c At this age expression starts to reappear apically and in the intermediate cell layer.

Specimen 4d: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Note: Embryo fixed in 4% formaldehyde/70% methanol.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: esophagus epithelium Present 4d At this age expression is observed apically and subapically in an organized manner, indicating a two-layered squamous epithelium.
