Spatiotemporal Expression and Molecular Characterization of miR-344b and miR-344c in the Developing Mouse Brain

Figure 1

Spatiotemporal expression of miR-344b and miR-344c during mouse brain development. Sagittal brain sections showed spatial expression of miR-344b (a–f) with its miR-scramble (g–l), and miR-344c (m–r) with its miR-scramble (s–x). miR-scramble refers to negative control. Micrographs were taken at 1x magnification. Aq = aqueduct, CB = cerebellum, CC = cerebral cortex, GE = ganglionic eminence, HF = hippocampal formation, Hipp = hippocampus, Hypothal = hypothalamus, LV = lateral ventricle, Mb = midbrain, Med = medulla, Mes = mesencephalon, OB = olfactory bulb, Thal = thalamus, and V = ventricle. Scale bar, 3 mm.
