EG5 protein coexpression with VEGFR3-positive lymphatic vessels during mouse embryonic development and its expression pattern in adult mice.

Mouse embryonic sections from developmental stages (A) E10.5 and (B) E12.5 were subjected to immunofluorescence staining. Selected magnified (framed) areas highlight regions containing dermal lymphatics and the thoracic duct, which were imaged for HOECHST (blue; channel 1), Ki67 (green; channel 2), EG5 (red; channel 3), and VEGFR3 (white; channel 4) protein expression. Additionally, whole-mount immunofluorescence staining was performed on (C) intestinal and (D) ear samples. Selected magnifications highlight regions with lacteals (C) and initial lymphatic vessels (D), also imaged for Ki67 (green; channel 2), EG5 (red; channel 3), and VEGFR3 (white; channel 4); merged images are also shown. Arrowheads indicate areas with coexpression of EG5 and VEGFR3. Scale bars: 100 μm. Additional labeling was added to facilitate the understanding of the embryonic anatomy: A, artery; LEC, lymphatic endothelial cell; NC, notochord; NT, neural tube; PLV, peripheral lymphatic vessel; PTD, primordial thoracic duct; V, vein.
