Fig. 7. lfng and rfng are expressed in appropriate temporal and spatial regions for a role in regulation of pronephric Notch signalling. (A,B) Whole-mount in situ hybridisation was carried out with a DIG-labelled anti-sense RNA probe for lfng (A) and rfng (B). lfng expression is detected in the dorso-anterior pronephros anlagen between stages 22 and 32. Transverse section of a stage 30 embryo clearly identifies this pronephric expression. At stage 38, pronephric lfng expression is lost. rfng expression in the pronephros is detected slightly later, at stage 26, and persists to stage 32/33. By stage 36, no pronephric expression of rfng could be detected. pn, pronephros. Image published in: Naylor RW and Jones EA (2009) Copyright © 2009.
