FIG. 2. Overexpression of Wnt-4 affects morphogenesis of pronephric tubules. Single V2 blastomeres of eight-cell-stage embryos were coinjected with 0.25 ng of Wnt-4 mRNA and the lineage tracer nuclear 􏰁-galactosidase (nuc􏰁gal, 0.1 ng). Embryos were fixed at stage 33/34, processed for 􏰁gal activity, and hybridized with a LIM-1 antisense probe. (A) Control side of a Wnt-4-injected embryo. (B) Enlargement of the area bordered in (A). Note the characteristic expression of LIM-1 in the nephrostomal sections of the pronephric tubules (arrowheads) Image published in: Saulnier DM et al. (2002) Copyright © 2002.
