Figure 4

Conditional deletion of Tfrc in NCCs does not affect neural crest migration or cell proliferation. (a and b) Whole-mount AP-2α staining shows migratory neural crest cells in FNP (asterisk), BA1 (arrow) and BA2 (arrowhead). (c and d) Whole-mount X-gal staining shows neural crest cells in FNP (asterisk), BA1 (arrow) and BA2 (arrowhead). (e and f) Immunofluorescent labeling (e) and quantification (f) of BrdU-positive cells in mandibular regions from coronal head sections. At least twenty-five sections were randomly selected from four pairs of E13.5 Wnt1cre;Tfrcf/f mutants and controls. NS, no significant difference. Scale bar, 0.5 mm (ad), 0.1 mm (e). BA1, first branchial arch; BA2, second branchial arch; FNP, frontonasal prominence
