Expression of Cdh2 and Cdh4 in transverse sections of the developing spinal cord at the lumbar level from 2.5 days’ incubation (E2.5) to E10 (indicated in each panel). (A,B) Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining. (C) In situ hybridization result for sense cRNA-probe used as a negative control. (D–I) In situ hybridization result for N-cadherin (Cdh2) and (J–O) for R-cadherin (Cdh4). The arrows in H,N,O point to the positive boundary cap cells at the position of the ventral root. The asterisks in G,I indicate artificial folds in the tissue. Abbreviations: DM, dermomyotome; DH, dorsal horn; DRG, dorsal root ganglion; FP, floor plate; GM, gray matter; ML, mantle layer; MT, myotome; NC, notochord; NE, neuroepithelial layer; RP, roof plate; SG, sympathetic ganglion; SP, spinal cord; VE, vertebral arch; WM, white matter. Scale bars: 100 μm in D (for D,J); 200 μm in A (for A,E,F,K,L); 500 μm in B (for B,C,G–I,M–O).
