Figure 7. Correlation between cephalic paraxial mesoderm and neural tube closure.

Figure 7

(A, A′) In WT embryos, col9a2 is expressed in the cpm (white arrowheads) and the ears (white arrow) and the otx5 expressing pineal anlage (black arrowheads) is oval shaped indicating a closed neural tube. (B–D′) sqt embryos with different combinations of cpm deficiencies and neural tube phenotypes. (A–D) Dorsal views with anterior to the left and (A′–D′) lateral views with anterior to the left and dorsal to the top. Images with the same letter are of the same embryo. (E) Complete set of quantitative data. Scale bar: 100 μm.
