Assay
Reference: J:52599 Mendelsohn C, et al., Stromal cells mediate retinoid-dependent functions essential for renal development. Development. 1999 Mar;126(6):1139-48
Assay type: RNA in situ
MGI Accession ID: MGI:1330386
Gene symbol: Rarb
Gene name: retinoic acid receptor, beta
Probe: mRAR-beta
Probe preparation: Antisense labelled with digoxigenin RNA
Visualized with: Alkaline phosphatase
Assay notes: Hybridization represents isoform RAR[beta]2 transcripts in the embryonic kidney. Transcript expression is maintained in the knockout mice, although no protein is made.
Results
Specimen Not Shown: embryonic day 11.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS18: metanephros Present Regionally restricted Expression was detected in a ring of cells at the edge of the metanephric blastema, which may contain presumptive stromal cells.

Specimen 1C: embryonic day 12.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: metanephros Present Regionally restricted 1C Expression was detected in the renal capsule.
TS20: ureteric tip Absent 1C Expression was absent from the ureteric bud.
TS20: mesenchyme of metanephros Present Regionally restricted 1C Expression was detected in presumptive stromal cells surrounding the ureteric bud tips and metanephric mesenchyme and in the presumptive stromal cells surrounding the ureter.

Specimen 1D: embryonic day 14.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: renal medullary interstitium Present Regionally restricted 1D Expression was detected in the renal capsule, the subcapsular stromal cells and the cortico-medullary stromal cells.

Specimen 6A: embryonic day 14.0 (more )
Note: The plane of section was transverse.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: renal medullary interstitium Present 6A Expression was detected in the subcapsular stromal cells and the cortico-medullary stromal cells.

Specimen 6B: embryonic day 14.0; Raratm1Ipc/Raratm1Ipc, Rarbtm1Ipc/Rarbtm1Ipc (more )
Note: The plane of section was transverse. Note that transcripts are generated in knockout mice although the protein is not made.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: renal medullary interstitium Present 6B Expression was detected in the cortico-medullary stromal cells and the subcapsular stromal cells but was abnormally distributed in a thick ring of cells encircling the mutant kidneys.
