Fig. 5. Characterisation of Tshz3-positive mesenchymal cells in the developing
ureter. (A-F) Immunostaining for SMAA (green) and β-gal (red)
in tissue section of E15.5 (B), E18.5 (D) and adult (F)
Tshz3lacZ/+ ureters. Corresponding DAPI staining are shown
(A,C,E). (G) Expression of Tshz3 in E18.5 ureter from
TshzlacZ/+ mice, revealed by X-Gal staining (blue) and
immunohistochemistry for RALDH2 (brown): inset shows RALDH2/X-Gal
double-positive cells.
