Figure 3.
Tissue expression of Drosophila scro and vdn together with their human orthologues. Left panel: scro is expressed in Drosophila's central nervous system and pharynx, while its human orthologues are expressed in the brain, lung, and thyroid (NKX2-1) and brain and testis (NKX2-4), respectively. Right panel: vnd is expressed in Drosophila's ventral nerve cord, while its human orthologues are expressed in the brain, skin, gastrointestinal system, and testis (NKX2-2), and brain, lungs, thyroid, esophagus, and testis (NKX2-8), respectively.
