Results
Specimen 1G: embryonic day 5.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS7: embryonic visceral endoderm Present Regionally restricted 1G Expression was in a few visceral endoderm cells at the distal tip of the egg cylinder.

Specimen 1H: embryonic day 6.0 (more )
Note: Double labeled: gray (closed arrowhead) - Hhex; gray (white arrowhead) - T (assay MGI:7506426).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS8: embryonic visceral endoderm Present Regionally restricted 1H Expression was detected only on one side of the egg cylinder.

Specimen 1I: embryonic day 6.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS10: embryonic visceral endoderm Present Regionally restricted 1I Expression was detected in a strip of anterior medial visceral endoderm extending about two thirds of the way down the egg cylinder.
TS10: node Present Regionally restricted 1I Expression was detected in cells emerging from the node.

Specimen not shown: embryonic day 4.5 (more )
Note: Hatched blastocyst.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS6: primitive endoderm Present Regionally restricted Expression was restricted to the primitive endoderm at the interface between the inner cell mass and the blastocoel cavity.
