Fig. 3. Muscle patterning and differentiation defects in
CA-ß-catenin/Wnt1-Cre mutant embryos.
(A,A') Whole-mount in situ hybridization (ISH) for
Dlx5 in control and CA-ß-catenin/Wnt1-Cre
mutants, n=3. Arrowheads point to the CNC cells in the
branchial arches (ba1 and ba2). (B,B') Capsulin ISH in
control and mutants, n=6. Arrowheads point to the muscle
anlagen in the branchial arches. (C,C') Tbx1 ISH,
n=6. (D,D') Myf5 ISH,
n=5. (E,E') MyoD ISH,
n=4. (F,F') Myogenin ISH,
n=4. Open arrowheads indicate on the loss of muscle anlagen.
fl, forelimb; ht, heart; nt, neural tube. Scale bars: in A, 0.5 mm for
A',D-D',E-E',F-F'; in B, 0.7 mm for
B'-C'.
