Fig. 9. Photomicrographs showing x-Lhx7-expressing cells at different
levels of the adult Xenopus forebrain (a–c) and through the
development (d–g; St, stage). a: Septal complex and BST. b: Suprachiasmatic
nucleus. c: Caudal telencephalic levels showing strong
expressing cells in the pallidum, anterior preoptic area, BST and
scattered cells in the medial amygdala. d: In toto lateral view of the
brain of an early premetamorphic larva showing in toto the x-Lhx7
expression in the medial ganglionic eminence and the hypothalamus;
the arrow points to scattered cells located in the mamillary complex.
e: Transverse section through the medial ganglionic eminence.
f: Lateral septum at prometamorphic stages. g: Hypothalamus at
premetamorphosis. The orientation of the sections showed in e and g
is indicated by lines in d. For abbreviations, see list. Scale bars 100
m in a–g. |
