Fig. 4. Asymmetric expression of pitx2 during Xenopus liver morphogenesis.In situ hybridization was performed on whole NF 35 embryos (A-B) or on serial sections (C-D),probing for the liver specific transcription factor, hhex (A, C), or the LR determinant , pitx2 (B, D). Dotted line in A approximates the section planes shown in C and D. The expression of pitx2is confined to the mesoderm surrounding the left side of the liver diverticulum (arrows in B, D). R=right, L=left. Scale bars= 200 μm. |
