Fig. 7

Localized ectopic expression of Slit2 impairs the mesodermal movement. The embryos expressing slit2 and gfp mRNA in a mosaic pattern were fixed at 10 h and stained for hlx1 and dlx3 expression by in situ hybridization and for GFP by immunohistochemistry. Dorsal views, anterior to the top. (A) Control embryo. (B) The embryos (n 5 3) in which the GFP-positive cells were broadly distributed in the anterior region of the neural plate. The hlx1-positive cells of the prechordal mesoderm failed to reach the anterior margin of neural plate. (C) The embryos (n 5 17) in which the GFP-positive cells were incorporated on one side of the neural plate and the adjacent ectoderm. The hlx1-positive cells were bent toward the side which incorporated the GFP-positive cells. Bar, 250 μm.
