Fig. 5. Localisation of cadherin-11 mRNA by in situ hybridisation. Numbers indicate the stage of development. (A) Cadherin-11 expression in migrating cranial neural crest cells. Twist was used as a neural crest cells marker, shown here on a stage 23 embryo. All views are lateral, except the first one, frontal. MCS, mandibular crest segment; HCS, hyoid crest segment; BCS, branchial crest segment (bar = 10 mm). (B) Sections of a stage 25 embryo showing expression in the mandibular (S1) and in the branchial (S2) crest segments (arrowheads). NT neural tube; EV, eye vesicule; CM, cement gland; N,notochord (bar = 1 mm). (C) Cadherin-11 expression in the neural crest cells migrating in the dorsal fin (bar = 1 mm). |
