(A) Schematic of tissues and rudimentary organ structures in Xenopus tissue explants. (B) Cardiac explants isolated and cultured in DMSO or NSC-87877 (NSC) beginning at stage 22. In situ hybridization performed on explants with Tbx1, Fgf8, at stages 22, 26, 29 and 33. (C) Whole-mount in situ hybridization of Endocut, Endodermin, Sox2, Ami and Xmsr at stage 37; whole embryos and cardiac explants treated with DMSO (control) or NSC-87877, as indicated.
