Figure 4.
Wnt signaling activity as shown by the BAT-Gal reporter in the E13.5 esophagus and stomach. The stratified epithelium in the esophagus and forestomach is strongly positive for X-gal staining. Sporadic X-gal positive cells are also present in the mesenchyme of both the esophagus and forestomach. Note that part of the mesenchyme in the hindstomach is also positive for X-gal staining. Scale bar: 50μm. ep, epithelium; me, mesenchyme; fst, forestomach; eso, esophagus; hst, hindstomach; duo, duodenum.
