Figure Lengend Snippet: B4galnt3 is expressed in osteoblasts and osteocytes but not in osteoclasts. a–l) Representative in situ hybridization images in mice. Transverse sections across lumbar vertebra 5 (a–d) and longitudinal sections of femur or tibia (e–l) in mice demonstrate the mRNA expression of B4galnt3 (blue; a–l) and Sost (red; a, e, i), Dmp1 (red; b, f, j), Runx2 (red; c, g, k) or Ctsk (red; d, h, l). B4galnt3 mRNA could be observed in Sost-, Dmp1-, and Runx2-expressing osteocytes and osteoblast- lineage cells on the bone surface. In contrast, B4galnt3 was not detectable in Ctsk-expressing osteoclasts. Scale bar 50 μm. Images are representative of at least three independent experiments.
Article Snippet: In situ hybridization The chromogenic in situ hybridization (cISH) was performed by using the RNAscope Duplex Detection Kit (322500, Advanced Cell Diagnostics (ACD), Bio-Techne Ltd., Abingdon, UK).
