Fig. 7. Conditional manipulation of Hh signaling reveals a crucial period for
specification of oligodendrocyte precursors. All panels show transverse
sections, dorsal side upwards. (A-D) Embryos incubated in cyclopamine from
6-26 hpf. At 26 hpf, these embryos did not express olig2 (A).
iro3 expression included the ventralmost spinal cord cells (B;
brackets in B,F,J). olig2 expression was not recovered by 36 hpf (C)
and no sox10+ OPCs were evident by 48 hpf (D). (E-H)
Embryos treated with cyclopamine from 11-26 hpf. olig2 expression was
absent by 26 hpf (E) but a small domain of iro3- cells was
present in the ventral spinal cord (F). These embryos recovered olig2
expression by 36 hpf, but in an abnormally ventral position (G). At 48 hpf,
few sox10+ OPCs had developed (H). (I-L) Embryos treated
with cyclopamine from 14-26 hpf. olig2 expression was not maintained
until 26 hpf (I) but iro3 expression appeared normal (J, compare with
Fig. 6C). olig2
expression was recovered by 36 hpf in ventralmost spinal cord cells (K) but in
a larger domain compared with 11-26 hpf treated embryos. These embryos
expressed sox10 at 48 hpf, but in an abnormally ventral position (L,
compare with Fig. 6E). Scale
