Fig. 3. Caudal-to-rostral gradients of expression are shifted rostrally in the dorsal telencephalon of E12/E13 Fgf8neo/neo embryos. Whole-mount in situ hybridization on dissected neural tubes of E12/E13 wild-type (A,A',C,C',E,G) and Fgf8neo/neo (B,B',D,D',F,H) embryos performed with the indicated probes. (A-B') The high caudodorsal to low rostroventral gradient of Emx2 expression in the dorsal telencephalon is detected in wild type on lateral (A) and dorsal (A') viewing of the telencephalic vessicules. Lateral (B) and dorsal views (B') of an Fgf8neo/neo embryo show the rostral shift in the anterior limit of this gradient (compare arrowheads in A and B). (C-D') The high caudoventral-to-low rostrodorsal gradient of COUP-TFI expression is visible on lateral (C) and dorsal (C') views of wild-type embryo. The anterior limit of high expression (white arrowheads) is shifted rostrally in Fgf8neo/neo embryos. (E,F) Dbx1 expression is normally restricted to a stripe in the caudal part of the ventral pallium (black arrowhead in E). The anterior limit of Dbx1 expression moves rostrally in Fgf8neo/neo embryos (black arrowhead in F). (G,H) FgfR3 high-expression is excluded from the rostral-most part of the telencephalon in control embryos (black arrowhead in G). This expression domain expands into the rostral telencephalon of Fgf8neo/neo embryos (black arrowhead in H). Tel, telencephalon.
