Figure 5 Zic3 induced NCAM, Xtwi, and Xslu expression but reduced epidermis in early stage embryo. A total of 100 pg of Zic3 mRNA was injected into one blastomere of two-cell stage embryos (A). In situ hybridization was performed with NCAM (A), Xtwi (B), and Xslu (C) probe, and immunohistochemistry was performed with EpA mAb (D). (A) Dorsal view of a stage 14 embryo. NCAM, Xtwi, and Xslu expressing regions expand laterally in the injected side (A). EpA staining in the epidermis is reduced in the injected side (D).
