Results
Specimen 3A: embryonic day 13.5 (more )
Note: Fixation was either 10% neutral buffered formalin or 4% paraformaldehyde. Embedding was either in paraffin or OCT (cryosection).
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS21: lens epithelium lens epithelial cell Present 3A
TS21: lens fiber lens fiber cell Present 3A
TS21: cornea epithelium corneal epithelial cell Strong 3A

Specimen 3B: embryonic day 13.5; Apctm1Tno/Apctm1Tno, Tg(Cryaa-cre)10Mlr/0 (more )
Note: Conditional mutant. Fixation was either 10% neutral buffered formalin or 4% paraformaldehyde. Embedding was either in paraffin or OCT (cryosection).
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS21: lens epithelium lens epithelial cell Absent 3B
TS21: lens fiber lens fiber cell Weak Single cells 3B Only occasional fiber cells still showed expression in the mutant.
TS21: cornea epithelium corneal epithelial cell Strong 3B No change in cornea expression was observed in the mutant.

Specimen not shown WT: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Note: Fixation was either 10% neutral buffered formalin or 4% paraformaldehyde. Embedding was either in paraffin or OCT (cryosection).
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: lens lens epithelial cell Present Localization patterns of expression in E15.5 wild-type lens was similar to that observed at E13.5.
TS23: lens fiber lens fiber cell Present Localization patterns of expression in E15.5 wild-type lens was similar to that observed at E13.5.

Specimen not shown APC10: embryonic day 15.5; Apctm1Tno/Apctm1Tno, Tg(Cryaa-cre)10Mlr/0 (more )
Note: Conditional mutant. Fixation was either 10% neutral buffered formalin or 4% paraformaldehyde. Embedding was either in paraffin or OCT (cryosection).
