Fig. 2. BMP inhibition is not sufficient for neural induction. Inhibition of BMP by
misexpression of dnBMPR (A,B), Chordin (C,D), Noggin (G) or
dnBMPR+Chordin+Noggin+Smad6 (E,F) is not sufficient
to induce Sox2. (H,I) Sections through the embryos in F,G at the
levels indicated. All cell pellets produce background staining after
Sox2 in situ hybridization (E-I); sections are therefore necessary to
show absence of expression in the epiblast.
