Fig. 1. Tbx6 knockdown causes defects in cranial cartilages. The heads of stage 47 larvae injected with Tbx6 5mis-MO (A) or exint-MO (B) plus ODA and viewed from the ventral side (C–E). Dotted lines indicate the dorsal midline and rostral border of the larvae. MO-injected sides are marked with *. Alcian blue-stained cartilages from stage 47 larvae injected with Tbx6 5mis-MO or Tbx6 exint-MO before (C, D) and after (C′, D′) dissection. So, subocular; Et, ethmoid-trabecular; I, infrarostral; M, Meckel's cartilage; Q, quadrate; C, ceratohyal; Bh, basihyal; B, branchial. (E) Alcian blue-stained cartilage from stage 47 larvae injected with Tbx6/pCS2+ (10 pg) together with Tbx6 exint-MO. Image published in: Tazumi S et al. (2010) Copyright © 2010.
