Figure 6

β-galactosidase staining indicating Cre activity in a section of whole-mount stained 1 week Col2a1-Cre/R26R embryo knee (A). High power image of cruciate ligament seen in A (B). Blood vessels (arrow) profusing peripheral region of meniscal cartilage (C). High power image of β-galactosidase stained blood vessel in periphery of meniscal cartilage (D). High power image of β-galactosidase-negative blood vessel from surrounding muscle (E). Image of β-galactosidase stained blood vessel (arrow) perfusing muscle adjacent to the perichondrium (F). Equivalent section to (A) from Matn1-Cre/R26R embryo knee, β-galactosidase showing staining limited to the epiphyseal chondrocytes in this case (G).
