Fig. 8

In the presence of Rbpj (with Rbpj), Rbpj regulates the expression of Vcam1 in the allantois through a Notch-dependent manner to ensure normal chorioallantoic branching morphogenesis, and facilitated Mash2 in EPC (Sp) to promote the specification of Tpbpα-positive trophoblast cells simultaneously. However, failed chorioallantoic branching and defective trophoblast differentiation in EPC (Sp) were observed in the absence of Rbpj (without Rbpj).
