Results
Specimen 1E: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: head Present Regionally restricted 1E
TS23: molar Strong 1E Expression levels similar to that of Shh.
TS23: eyelid Present 1E Expression levels similar to that of Shh.
TS23: hair follicle Present 1E Expression levels similar to that of Shh.
TS23: palatal rugae Ambiguous 1E Expression levels too low to assess at this scale.
TS23: retina Ambiguous 1E Expression levels too low to assess at this scale.

Specimen 2CC: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: upper jaw molar epithelium Present Regionally restricted 2CC Expression throughout internal and external dental epithelium. Strongest expression within internal dental epithelium, extending behond range of Shh expression, particularly on buccal side. Weak expression within external dental epithelium.
TS23: stellate reticulum Weak 2CC Weak expression in intermediate stratum and stellate reticulum.
TS23: stratum intermedium Weak 2CC Weak expression in intermediate stratum and stellate reticulum.
TS23: dental sac Weak 2CC Weak expression within condensing ectomesenchyme of dental papilla and follicle.
TS23: upper jaw molar dental papilla Weak 2CC Weak expression within condensing ectomesenchyme of dental papilla and follicle.

Specimen 2DD: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: lower jaw molar epithelium Present Regionally restricted 2DD Expression throughout internal and external dental epithelium. Strongest expression within internal dental epithelium, extending behond range of Shh expression, particularly on buccal side. Weak expression within external dental epithelium.
TS23: stellate reticulum Weak 2DD Weak expression in intermediate stratum and stellate reticulum.
TS23: stratum intermedium Weak 2DD Weak expression in intermediate stratum and stellate reticulum.
TS23: dental sac Weak 2DD Weak expression within condensing ectomesenchyme of dental papilla and follicle.
TS23: upper jaw molar dental papilla Weak 2DD Weak expression within condensing ectomesenchyme of dental papilla and follicle.

Specimen 2EE: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: hair epidermal placode Present 2EE Expression in distal epithelium of hair peg, overlapping with that of Shh but extending beyond Shh-expressing region, up outer walls of hair peg.

Specimen 2FF: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: palatal shelf epithelium Absent 2FF Expression not detected in palatal oral epithelium.

Specimen 2GG: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: eyelid epithelium Present Regionally restricted 2GG Following fusion, expression in basal layer of eyelid epitehlium originating from both upper and lower lid primordia. Expression restricted to basal layer eyelid epithelium, but with broader expression teritory that overlaps and extends beyond region of Shh expression.

Specimen 2HH: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: eye Ambiguous 2HH Authors state that expression is too close to background levels to make a definitive assessment.

Specimen 2II: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: retina Absent 2II Expression not detected.
