Fig. 2. otx2 expression correlates with insensitivity of the cement gland to retinoic acid. Albino embryos were left untreated (a, e) or incubated in retinoic acid (RA) beginning at stage 10.5 (b, f), stage 11.5 (c, g), or stage 12.5 (d, h) and until harvest at stage 15 for analysis by in situ hybridization. (a-d) XCG expression. Black open arrowheads indicate XCG expression in the cement gland anlage. Anterior view, dorsal up. (e-h) otx2 expression. White open arrowheads indicate otx2 expression in the cement gland anlage. Anterior view, dorsal up. Image published in: Gammill LS and Sive H (1997) Copyright © 1997.
