Figure 3. Cardiac gene expression at stage 39 by in situ hybridization on section. Transverse and sagittal sections are at the level of the OFT and AV canal, respectively. A, G: Hematoxylin/eosin (H-E) stained sections. Bmp4 (B, H), Msx1 (C, I), and Nkx2.5 (D, J) are expressed in the myocardium while Sox9 (E, K) and Xl-Fli (F, L) are detected in the endocardium. CJ, cardiac jelly; E, endocardium; EMT, site of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transformation; L, liver; M, myocardium. Scale bar = 50 mu m.
