Figure 7Cell transfer into neonatal mouse recipients. (
A) PKH2-GL–labeled cells or cells constitutively expressing the GFP gene under the chicken β-actin promoter (GFP) were injected i.v. into neonatal mice. Ten days thereafter, heart sections were stained for α-actinin. (
B) PKH2-GL–labeled
FGF-2+/+ or
FGF-2–/– NMCs were injected into neonatal
FGF-2+/+ or
FGF-2–/– mice. Ten days after injection, heart sections were stained for α-actinin. (
C) WT PKH2-GL–labeled NMCs were injected into neonatal ROSA26 transgenic mice, and heart sections were stained for β-gal. Original magnification, ×63 (
A and
C), ×20 (
