Expression of Slits in embryonic rat diencephalon. Coronal sections through diencephalon of E13 (A, D, G), E15 (B, E, H), and E17 (C, F, I) rat brains showing Slit1 (A–C), Slit2 (D–F), and Slit3 (G–I) expression detected by in situ hybridization using S35 labeled riboprobes. Sections are counterstained with bisbenzimide. Photos are single exposures using dark field and ultraviolet illumination. Dorsal is up. Arrows mark the ventral extent of the TCA pathway in diencephalon at the level shown. For details, see Results. dTh, dorsal thalamus; Epi, epithalamus; Hy, hypothalamus; and vTh, ventral thalamus. Scale bars: 200 mm.
