Fig. 5. Mesodermal gene expression is dependent on FoxD3 function. (A-F) Control. At the four-cell stage, each blastomere was injected in the marginal zone with 500 pg of VP16-FoxD3 RNA (G-L), 25 ng of FoxD3MO (M-R), or 25 ng of mismatch MO (S-X). At the early gastrula stage (stage 10.25), embryos were analyzed by in situ hybridization for the expression of the indicated genes. The results shown are representative of three independent experiments (n=12-18 embryos per sample in each experiment). Vegetal views are shown for Brachyury, Chordin, Xwnt8, Mixer and Opl, animal views are shown for Dlx3, and dorsal is up for all panels. Image published in: Steiner AB et al. (2006) Copyright © 2006.
