Figure 4. Expression of collagen assembling molecules in the condensing mesenchyme.

Figure 4

(A) Transcriptional profiling of ECM assembling molecules expressed in DM at E10, 11 and 13 (all gene profiling results are normalized to GAPDH levels). Arrows indicate ECM assembling molecules that are expressed >2-fold higher in the DM at E13 compared with E10. (B) Fluorescence micrographs showing protein levels of biglycan, decorin, LOX, and lumican in the tooth germ at E14. Dashed lines indicate the epithelial-mesenchymal interface. Scale bar, 50 μm.
