Fig. 3. Altered gene expression in the posterior pharyngeal region of RA-rescued Raldh2–/– embryos. (A-D) Whole-mount in situ analysis of Hoxb1 transcripts in E9 (~22 somites) wild-type (A,C) and Raldh2–/– (B,D) embryos. Profile views of the whole embryos (A,B) and enlargement of the posterior foregut region after medial bisection (C,D, inside views). (E,F) In situ hybridization analysis of Hoxa1 transcripts in the foregut area of E9 wild-type and Raldh2–/– embryos, respectively (viewed as in C,D). (G-J) In situ hybridization analysis of Fgf8 transcripts in E9.5 wild-type (G,I,) and Raldh2–/– (H,J) embryos. External profile views (G,H) show Fgf8 ectodermal labeling, whereas internal views after bisection (I,J) reveal the endodermal labeling. Insets in (I,J) are coronal views which make it possible to distinguish the ectodermal and endormal labeling. (K,L) In situ hybridization analysis of Pax9 expression in the foregut region of E9.5 (main panels) and E10.5 (insets: detail of the pharyngeal region caudally to the 2nd arch) wild-type and Raldh2–/– embryos, respectively. b1-b3, branchial arches; ec, ectoderm; en, endoderm; fg, foregut; me, mesoderm; p1-p3, pharyngeal pouches; r4, rhombomere 4; tb, tail bud.
