Expression pattern of dkk3b(dkk3) during embryonic development Until 16hpf weak dkk3b(dkk3) signals are found throughout the embryo (A). At 20hpf specific signals are associated with the nephric duct (nd) and the pancreatic islet (B). Strongest signals can be detected in cells of islet within the entire late developmental stages, i.e. 28, 36, 72 and 96hpf (C–E and G). Additionally, 36hpf expression was found in fin buds (fb) and craniofacial arches (arrowheads in E–G). Embryos are shown from dorsal (D and E), ventral (F) or lateral (A–C and G). In order to highlight pancreatic expression on the right side, embryos are shown with the anterior to the right. Scale bar in all figures correspond to 50 μm.
