(a–f) Confocal micrographs of cryosectioned and immunostained Xenopus stomach samples at (a) stage (st.) 51, (b) st. 56, (c) st. 61, and (d) st. 65 reveal ciliation of the stomach lining throughout metamorphosis. (e,f) Magnified views on tips of gastric folds at (e) st. 63 and (f) st. 65. Samples were stained for acetylated‐α‐tubulin (Ac.‐α‐tubulin, red), cell borders/the epithelium are stained with Phalloidin (actin, green), and nuclei were stained with DAPI (blue) |
