Description

Morphological defects in Ctcf mutant embryonic hearts. Whole mount control and mutant (Ctcffl/fl;Nkx2-5-Cre) embryos at E10.5 (A, B), E11.5 (C, D) and E12.5 (E, F). Arrows in (E) point to the pericardial edema present in mutant embryos. Higher magnification of the heart show morphological defects in Ctcf mutant hearts becoming manifest at E12.5 (F). (G-L) Sections from control and mutant embryos stained with hematoxylin and eosin; higher magnifications (black dashed boxes) for each are shown on the right of each section. Disorganization of the interventricular septum and thinning of the myocardial wall is apparent in Ctcf mutant hearts at E11.5. A, atria; V, ventricle; RA, right atria; LA, left atria; RV, right ventricle; LV, left ventricle; AVC, atrioventricular canal; IVS, interventricular septum. Scale bars, 750 μm (A), 200 μm (B, D), 1 mm (C), 2 mm (E), 800 μm (F), 100 μm (G, H), 200 μm (I-L), and 100 μm in all higher magnifications.
