Fig. 2. Morphology after Lmx1b and Wnt1 misexpression. (A-C)
Morphology of Lmx1b-misexpressed embryo at E7.5. Dorsal view (A);
view from the caudal side (B); transverse section stained with
Hematoxylin-Eosin (C). Expansion of the tectum, torus semicircularis and
rhombic lip are seen on the experimental side. (D-H) Morphology after
Wnt1 misexpression. E3.5 (48 hours after electroporation; D,E). E14.5
(13 days after electroporation; F-H). Dorsal view (D,F,G); view from the
caudal side (E); horizontal section stained with Hematoxylin-Eosin (H). Extra
folia (arrows on H) were formed in the cerebellum by Wnt1
misexpression. Scale bars: 2 mm (F), 1 mm (B,G), 500 µm (C,E,H). cer,
cerebellum; cont., control side; exp., experimental side; met, metencephalon;
