  Figure 2. A lateral myogenic population differentiates at the trunk level during neurulation. A: Whole-mount in situ hybridization of myogenic regulatory factor (MRF) and muscle-marker genes during the second part of neurulation. Brackets indicate the lateral myogenic population. Dorsal views. Vertical lines define the limit between anterior and trunk region. The anterior side of the embryos is on the left. B: Transverse sections at the trunk level of embryos submitted to in situ hybridization for Myod, Des (stage 16 and 17/18) or Myogenin mRNA detection (stage 17/18). 12/101 antibody detects differentiated muscle cells at stage 16 and 17/18 (blue). C: Localization of Myod mRNA on dorsal view and on transverse section at stage 21/22. Arrows and arrowheads indicate the dorsomedian and ventrolateral Myod expression domains, respectively. Dotted lines define the median differentiated muscle fibers. Nc, notochord. Download figure to PowerPoint.

  Figure 3. Expression of myogenic regulatory factor (MRF) at tailbud stages. Expression of the four MRFs at stages 22–23 in comparison with Des (A) and at stages 26-27 (B) determined by whole-mount in situ hybridization with labeled antisense probes against Myf5, Myod, Mrf4, Myogenin, and Des mRNAs. The anterior side of the embryos is on the left. Lateral views. Arrowheads in A: Myf5 mRNA staining at the dorsomedian and ventrolateral somitic borders. The probe is indicated in each panel. Time for Myogenin mRNA revelation was longer than for the other MRF at these stages.Download figure to PowerPoint

  Figure 8. Distinct myogenic programs are expressed during craniofacial myogenesis. A: Schematic representation of head muscle anlagen according to Ziermann and Olsson (2007). B: Expression of Myf5, Myod, Myogenin, and Mrf4 mRNAs in head muscles anlagen. Myf5 is expressed neither in the M. levatores mandibulae, nor in the M. quadrato-hyoangularis and orbitohyoideus anlagen (black arrows). Myod transcripts are not detected in the dorsal part of branchial muscle anlagen and in the intermandibularis anlage (brackets). Green arrows design extraocular muscle anlagen. C: Expression of Des, Actc, and Ckm, as well as MyhE3 and MyhE19 coding, respectively, for embryonic fast and slow myosin heavy chain (Radice and Malacinski, 1989). St, stage. For each probe, ventral view in the left panel, lateral view in the right panel with the anterior side of the embryos on the left. h, heart. Download figure to PowerPoint.
