Fig. 2. cdx1b antisense MO knockdown analyses. cdx1b 24
hpf (A-F) and 48 hpf (M,N) zebrafish morphants;
cdx1b-4mm-MO-injected 24 hpf (G-I) and 48 hpf
(O,P) embryos; wild-type 24 hpf (J-L) and 48 hpf
(Q,R) embryos. Green fluorescence was not detected in
cdx1b MO and CMV-cdx1b-mo-GFP co-injected
(T) 27 hpf embryos, whereas bright green fluorescence was detected in
cdx1b-4mm MO and CMV-cdx1b-mo-GFP co-injected
embryos (S). The expression patterns of shh were compared in
28 hpf wild type (U,V) and morphants (W,X). Scale
bars: 100 µm. a, atrium; bp, basal plate midbrain; fp, floor plate; hy,
hypothalamus; v, ventricle; wt, wild type; zli, zona limitans
intrathalamica.
