Fig. 3. — lacZ expression pattern during development of Erg^Δ^Ex3/+ and Erg^Δ^Ex4/+ mouse embryos. (A) lacZ staining corresponding to Erg^Ex3 was observed in the somites and limbs corresponding to developing articular cartilage starting at E9.5. By contrast, Erg^Ex4 expression was detected in the blood islands at E7.5 and then in all embryonic vasculature. (B,D,F) lacZ staining of whole-mount preparations of the head (B), heart (D) and somites (F) from E10.5 embryos displaying a clear endothelial restricted pattern in the brain vasculature, endocardium and intersomitic vessels, respectively. (C,E,G) lacZ staining of sectioned E10.5 embryos. lacZ-positive cells are seen in the vitelline artery (C), endocardium of the heart (E) and in ECs lining the dorsal aorta (G).
