Fig. 7. Rescue of VPXvent-1 and VPXvent-2 action by different ventralizing factors. 4- to 8-cell-stage embryos were microinjected ventrally with VPXvent-1 (0.1 ng/blastomere, left column) or VPXvent-2 mRNA (0.5 ng/blastomere, right column), either (A,B) alone or (C-L) in combination with the mRNAs or DNA indicated (doses in parenthesis in ng/blastomere): (C) Xvent-2 (1), (D) Xvent-1 (0.15), (E,F) Xhox3 (0.2), (G,H) Bmp-4 (0.3), (I,J) CSKAXwnt-8 (0.05), (K,L) dnXwnt-8 (0.3). Note failure of rescue by CSKAXwnt- 8 (I,J) and secondary embryonic axes containing anterior structures in (K,L). Image published in: Onichtchouk D et al. (1998) Copyright © 1998.
