Figure 9. Reelin expression in the brain of developing Xenopus laevis. A,B:reelin (reln) expression (A) and schematic drawing (B) of stage 35 Xenopus embryo. C: Schematic drawing of a stage 50 Xenopus brain, illustrating the position of sections in D–F. D–F: Frozen transverse sections showing gene and/or protein expression (indicated bottom right). Dorsal is to the top. D: Accessory olfactory bulb. E: Rostral telencephalon. F: Caudal telencephalon. For abbreviations , see list. Scale bars = 100 μm in A, D–F.
