Fig. 7. Motoneurons are generated normally in
Hoxc10-/-/Hoxd10-/- double-mutant embryos.
Cross-sections of lumbar spinal cord of control and double-mutant embryos
stained for (A) Olig2, a marker for motoneuron progenitors, and
(B) Isl1 to label newly generated postmitotic motoneurons. There were
no apparent differences in the numbers of Olig2+ motoneuron
progenitors or Isl1+ motoneurons between control and double-mutant
embryos. D, dorsal root ganglion; M, motoneurons. Scale bars: 100 µm.
