Fig. 6. Distribution of grafted quail neural crest cells in the cranial region. All sections are stained with QCPN (red nuclei) to show quail cells, collagen II (green) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). (A-C) Midbrain control neural crest contribute to ciliary ganglion (Cg), trigeminal ganglion (V), maxillary (Mx) and mandibular (Mn) processes, including Meckel's (Mk) cartilage. (D-F) Cardiac neural crest contribution is similar to control, but few cells contribute to Meckel's cartilage (F,F') and many to the quadrate (Qd). (G-I) Trunk neural crest cells contribute to the trigeminal ophthalmic nerve (OpV) and periocular region (arrowhead), but minimally to the mandibular process (arrow).
