Fig. 5. Melanocyte development in
Sox10
K2/
K2
and Sox10aa1/aa1 embryos. (A) Whole-mount in
situ hybridizations were performed on wild-type,
Sox10
K2/
K2
and Sox10aa1/aa1 mouse embryos at 12.5 dpc using antisense
riboprobes against Dct and c-Kit. (B,C)
Dct-positive and c-Kit-positive cells were quantified in the
hindlimb region of wild-type embryos (black bars) and their
Sox10
K2/
K2
(B) or Sox10aa1/aa1 (C) littermates (white bars). Three
embryos were counted for each genotype. The number of cells counted in the
wild type was set to 100%. Cell numbers for the
Sox10
K2/
K2
and Sox10aa1/aa1 embryos are presented relative to the
wild type as mean±s.d. Differences were statistically significant
between wild type and each mutant as well as between the two mutants as
determined by Student's t-test (P
0.001).
