Figure 5: Anatomic structure and cardiac lineage in a P1 (postnatal day 1) mouse heart.

From: Light-sheet fluorescence imaging to localize cardiac lineage and protein distribution

Figure 5

(a–c) Cross-sectional slices made from the (a) XY- (b) YZ- (c) XZ-planes reveal the Cre-labeled cardiomyocytes present in both atrium and ventricle. Gray scale allows for encoding the optical intensity. (d) 3-D rendering of the reconstructed heart highlights the spatial distribution of Cre-labeled cardiac lineage (see Movie S4 and S5). The inset shows the translucent heart after CLARITY in the tube. Scale bar: 1 mm.
