Figure 3. Whole-Mount In Situ Hybridization of Xenopus Embryoswith
an Antisense XFS-319 RNA
(A) Stage 10 embryo, vegetal view. Follistatin RNAs can be detected
in a few cells of the organizer (top of embryo). (6) Mid-gastrula stages.
RNAs are confined to the prechordal and anterior chordal mesoderm.
(C) Early neurula stage. RNAs are localized to the head mesoderm
and anterior portion of the notochord. (D) Mid-neurula. Broad band of
expression covers the prospective midbrain-hindbrain junction and
hindbrain region. (E) Late neurula. The neural tube and dorsal axis
were isolated from the rest of the embryo, showing that the broad
band of expression is now confined to a few stripes in the midbrain
and hindbrain. (F) Ventral side of the explant in (E), showing theexpression
in the anterior notochord. The arrows indicate the position of the
blastopore. (0) Superficial view of an early tailbud. showing expression
in the pronephros. (H and I) Expression in the eye and pronephros in
tailbud embryo. (J and K) RNAs are expressed abundantly in the head
in swimming tadpole stage embryo. (L) Control using sense XFS-319
RNA as a probe. All embryos shown are albinos. Image published in: Hemmati-Brivanlou A et al. (1994) Copyright © 1994. Image reproduced with permission of the Publisher, Elsevier B. V.
