Cytodifferentiation of mouse visceral endoderm: study with a teratocarcinoma antiserum
1Department of Human Anatomy, Faculty of Medicine, University of Barcelona, Spain.
In this work we separated homogeneous embryoid bodies (EB); this population is composed of only endodermal vesicles of a visceral type. These EB were used to immunize rabbits. After absorption, the antisera were analyzed immunohistochemically in sections of 7.5- and 9-day-old mouse embryos, which showed a selective reaction to visceral endoderm. The cytodifferentiation of the visceral endoderm was studied.
