Fig. 7. Expression of HNK-1 by Rohon-Beard neurons in normal and RA-treated embryos. Panel A shows the pattern of expression of the HNK-1 antigen in wholemount preparations of tadpole stage (stage —38-40) embryos. mAb HNK-1 labels a variety of structures in the CNS including the cell bodies of Rohon-Beard neurons in the dorsal spinal cord (arrowheads). Panel B shows the labelling pattern of HNK-1 in the spinal cord of an embryo treated with high concentrations of RA. The inhibition of normal anterior development is not accompanied by an anterior extension of the domain over which Rohon-Beard neurons appear (bracket). Cg, cement gland; HB, hindbrain; o, otic vesicle; RA, embryo treated with high (H-RA) concentration of RA; SC, spinal cord. Scale bar=0.5mm.
