Fig. 1 Regionalization of the early adenohypophysis. (A) lim3 is expressed in the entire adenohypophyseal placode. (B) nk2.2 is expressed in the anterior region (arrowhead) of the placode. (C, E) Somatolactin (SL)-secreting cells are present throughout the adenohypophysis at 30 h (arrowheads). (D, F) Prolactin (PRL)-secreting cells are present only in the anterior region of the adenohypophysis at 30 h (arrowhead). (A–D) Lateral views, eyes removed, anterior to the left. (E, F) Ventral views, anterior up. Brackets show anterior/posterior extent of the morphologically visible placode. te, telencephalon; di, diencephalon; dot shows position of optic recess.
