Fig. 3. Whole mount (A–G) and histological (A′-G′) expression of trpv4 mRNA expression in X. laevis embryos. Lateral view for all whole mount embryos, animal pole to the top (A–D), anterior to the right (E–G); dorsal to the top for all histology images. (A, A′) unfertilized egg; (B, B′) stage 5 (16-cell stage); (C, C′) stage 8 (mid-blastula stage); (D, C′) stage 10 (early gastrula stage); (E, E′) stage 20 (late neurula stage); (F, F′, F′) stage 30 (late tailbud stage); (G, G′, G′) stage 35 (swimming tadpole stage). Arrows indicate regions of gene expression (a, animal pole; nc, notochord; np, nasal placode; tb, tailbud). Dashed lines represent positions of corresponding sections. Scale bars = 250 μm. |
