Human Carnegie stage 15 HOXC5 expression

Extracted from Figure 9 http://hmg.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content-nw/full/17/21/3411/DDN235F9

(F) At C15 (cf. Fig. 6E–G), HOXC5 is expressed by the developing vertebra, muscle precursors, ventricular zone of the neural tube and motor horns; it is also transcribed by all other tissues in this section when compared with the sense-hybridized adjacent section (not shown).

(G) Adjacent HE section. Thus, markers are only specific to a particular cell type within a given spatiotemporal context. Abbreviations: cœ, cœlom; da, dorsal aortae; h, heart; hm, hypaxial muscle precursors; lb, limb bud; lv, liver; m, muscle; nd, notochord; nt, neural tube; vt, vertebra.
