doi: 10.1038/s44318-024-00134-0
Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) Immunostaining of DDX4 (a marker for late germ cells) and FOXL2 (a marker for granulosa cells) in the gonads of Mcm8 +/+ and Mcm8 −/− mice at E13.5, E15.5, and PD3. Scale bars: 50 μm. ( B ) Immunostaining of DDX4 and SOX9 (a marker for Sertoli cells) in the gonads of Mcm8 +/+ and Mcm8 −/− mice at E13.5 and PD3. Scale bars: 50 μm. ( C ) Representative images of alkaline phosphatase (a PGC marker) staining of whole-mount or genital ridges from Mcm8 +/+ and Mcm8 −/− embryos. Scale bars: 200 μm. ( D ) PGC counts from Mcm8 +/+ and Mcm8 −/− embryos at E8.5, E9.5, and E11.5. n = 6/6/7/7/7/11 embryos. Data information: In ( D ), data are presented as the mean ± SD, and the dots indicate individual embryos. The statistical significance of the difference was analyzed by unpaired two-tailed Student’s t test ( D ), and the P ‐values were shown. .
