“…15-20 animal caps were used per sample. The templates for riboprobes were: MHCα (Logan and Mohun, 1993), MLC2 (Chambers et al, 1994), cTnI , IFABP (Shi and Hayes, 1994), Sox17α (Hudson et al, 1997), MyoD (Hopwood et al, 1989), MLC1 (Theze et al, 1995), Eomesodermin , globin (Patient et al, 1982), Nkx2.3 (Evans et al, 1995), Nkx2.5 , For1 (Seo et al, 2002), EF1α, amylase and insulin (Horb and Slack, 2002). For the LFABP probe, we used the 5′ end of cDNA [derived by 5′ RACE using partial cDNA information; see Henry and Melton (Henry and Melton, 1998)].…”
