Fig. 6. Ductin is present at high levels in the superficial ectoderm during neural plate stages. A: Immunohistochemistry for ductin on cross-sections from neurulating embryos. A.i: Germ layers are indicated on the DIC image of the section in A.ii. A.ii: Green is autofluorescence of the section, red is ductin signal. Ductin is ubiquitous, but stains most strongly in the superficial ectoderm (SE) at this stage. B: Cross-sections through the dorsal midline showing various configurations of the neural fold. In all sections, ductin signal is strongest in the SE. C: Higher magnification shows ductin concentrated in, although not exclusively localized to, the SE. D.i: Control section exposed to 2 Ab only. The left side of the image has been manipulated in Photoshop to show the position of the section; right side of image shows the actual signal at same exposure as B. D.ii: Control sections exposed to peptide-adsorbed antibody; sides as in D.i.
