Figure 5. The epicardium detaches from the myocardium in Pod1−/− mice.

Figure 5

X-Gal staining was performed on E14.5 and E17.5 mouse heart sections. (A–B’) βGal expression from the Pod1 locus is detected in the epicardium (arrows) and EPDCs (arrowheads) of E14.5 Pod1+/− (A’) and Pod1−/− (B’) mouse hearts. (C–D’) βGal expression persists in the epicardium (arrows) and intramyocardial EPDCs (arrowheads) of Pod1+/− (C’) and Pod1−/− (D’) hearts at E17.5. (B’,D’) Epicardial blistering (asterisks) occurs in Pod1−/− hearts at E14.5 and E17.5.
