Fig. 3. Aadc and Pitx3 expression in the mesencephalic neuronal
field at E12.5. (A) Aadc expression in a sagittal section showing the
mesencephalic dopaminergic (mesDA) field and additional positive neurons
located dorsally in the midbrain and serotonergic neurons positioned caudal to
the midbrain/hindbrain border (MHB). (B) Tyrosine hydroxylase (Th)
expression in an adjacent section to A. (C) Schematic representation of a
sagittal section showing the position of the coronal sections shown in D-I.
(D-F) Aadc expression in coronal sections at three different
positions as indicated in C. (G-H) Pitx3 expression in adjacent
sections to D-F. Aq, aqueduct.
