  Fig. 3. Selected examples of marker gene expression in the developing Xenopus pronephric kidney. Lateral views are shown anterior to the right. Transcripts were detected by wholemount in situ hybridization. (A) Pax-8, stage 32. Expression is detected in the emerging pronephric tubules (arrowheads) and at reduced levels in the pronephric duct. (B) Pax-2, stage 36. All epithelia of the pronephric kidney including the nephrostomes (arrowheads) are stained. (C) Delta-1, stage 30. Staining is confined to the developing pronephric tubule anlage. (D) Wnt-4, stage 32. Expression is largely restricted to the nephrostomes (arrowheads). (E) Iro-3, stage 36. Transcripts are present in the common tubule only. Anterior (arrowhead) and posterior (arrow) ends of the expression domain are indicated. (F) Sal-1, stage 38. Expression is found in the common tubule (arrowhead) and the anterior segment of the pronephric duct (arrow indicates posterior end of the expression domain). (G) WT-1, stage 30. Staining is evident in the pronephric capsule. (H) Msr, stage 34. Staining marks the developing vasculature. The major blood vessels in the region of the pronephric kidney are indicated. In situ hybridization and photography was performed as described elsewhere (Heller and Brändli, 1997, 1999). Abbreviations: ACV, anterior cardinal vein; CCV, common cardinal vein; D, pronephric duct; PC, pronephric capsule; PCV, posterior cardinal vein; PS, pronephric sinus; T, pronephric tubules.
