Fig. 8. Gastrulation initiates in Lama1-/-; Mr5 embryos, as
demonstrated by in situ hybridization of a digoxigenin-labeled brachyury
(T) cRNA probe to frozen sections of E7.5 embryos. (AD) Two
control/Lama1-/-; Mr5 embryo pairs from two different
litters. Despite the aberrant shape of the Lama1-/-; Mr5
embryos, robust expression of brachyury is evident. (E,F) Brachyury expression
in a Lama5-/- embryo is similar to the control.
