Results
Specimen 2A: embryonic day 11.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS18: mesenchyme of metanephros Strong Regionally restricted 2A Expression is in mesenchymal cells surrounding the Wolffian duct, and is high at the interface between the duct epithelium and the surrounding mesenchymal cells. Expression is throughout the mesenchyme of the nephrogenic cord.

Specimen 2B: embryonic day 11.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS18: mesenchyme of metanephros Strong Regionally restricted 2B Expression is in mesenchymal cells above the tip of the growing ureteric bud and surrounding the ureteric bud.
