Figure 5. AP Injection Blocks FGF-Mediated Elongation of Animal Caps One- to two-cell embryos were injected with AP RNA, then allowed to develop to stage 8. Animal caps were treated for 3 hr with 100 ng/ml bFGF or 5 ng/ml human recombinant activin A. (a) Untreated controls; (b) uninjected animal caps treated with bFGF; (c) animal caps from embryos injected with AP FIN& treated with bFGF; (d) animal caps from embryos injected with wild-type XSH-PTP2 RNA, treated with bFGF; (e) untreated controls; (f) uninjected animal caps treated with activin; (g) animal caps from embryos injected with AP RNA, treated with activin; (h) animal caps from embryos injected with wildtype XSH-PTP2 RNA, treated with activin.
