Fig. 6. Spatial analyses of cadherin-5 expression on sectioned embryos. Sagittal section (A) and coronary sections at different positions of st 36 embryos (B,C,D) show, that cdh5 expression is restricted to the endothelial linings of the developing vascular structures. Abbreviations: (aa) aortic arches, (ba) branchial arch, (da) dorsal aorta, (dc) duct of cuvier, (ha) heart anlage, (isv) intersomitic veins, (pcv) posterior cardinal vein, (rv) retinal vein, (va) ventral aorta, (vv) vitelline veins. |
