Fig. 3. Analysis of Pbx1 and Nkx2.5 gene expression during early
spleen organogenesis. In situ hybridization was performed on frozen sagittal
sections of E12-12.5 embryonic upper abdominal organs. (A-F) Normal expression
of Pbx1 within the developing splenic anlage of
Hox11-/-, Pod1-/- and
Nkx3.2-/- embryos. (G-L) Perturbed expression of
Nkx2.5 in Pod1-/- and Pbx1-/-
embryos. Nkx2.5 expression is unperturbed in the developing splenic
anlage of Hox11-/- embryos (H), while it is absent in
Pod1-/- (J) and Pbx1-/- (L) embryos,
compared with their wild-type littermates (G,I,K). L, liver; Sp, spleen; St,
stomach.
