Fig. 3. Morphological and
histological analyses of animal
caps derived from embryos
injected with RNA encoding
Xbra, Xbra-GR or GR.
Embryos at the one-cell stage
were left uninjected (A-D) or
injected with 400 pg of RNA
encoding Xbra (E-H), Xbra-
GR (I-L) or GR (M-P). Animal
caps were dissected at stage 8,
and in some cases treated with
10-6 M DEX
(C,D,G,H,K,L,O,P). After
culture to stage 42, caps were
photographed
(A,C,E,G,I,K,M,O) and
subjected to histological
analysis (B,D,F,H,J,L,N,P).
Addition of DEX has no effect
on animal caps from uninjected
embryos, or those injected with
RNA encoding Xbra or GR,
but caused caps derived from
embryos injected with RNA
encoding Xbra-GR to form
compact masses of muscle (L). Image published in: Tada M et al. (1997) Copyright © 1997. Image reproduced with permission of the publisher and the copyright holder.
