Both rostral and caudal sensory bundles seem to be split. The caudal bundle seems to be split into a longer thinner dorsolateral bundle and a moder medial, seemingly less fasciculated medial bundle. The anterior bundle seems to be split into two and perhaps 3 bundles. Both bundles show perpendicular projections of axons towards the midline.  There are also clearly labelled cell bodies in the dorsolateral edge of the wholemount, most likely in the alar plate.

NF005 - embryo sb - Stage 26 16/8/06

Experiment

Bilateral injection: VIII: DiO crystals on caudal half of cochleovestibular ganglion VII: DiI crystals on distal branch of facial ganglion

Dye application looks really good and clean, no signs of cross contamination. Good differentiation between facial and cochlear.

Results:

Good differentiation between green and red. The points of entry of each of the nerves is well defined, with facial entering at a more ventromedial position.

Facial labeling

(RED) Nerve entry well differentiated from VIII nerve, entering ventromedially to the entry of caudal VIII


Posterior cochlear ganglion labeling

(GREEN) Nerve entry well differentiated from VII nerve, entering in a more dorsolateral position with respect to VII.

Both rostral and caudal sensory bundles seem to be split. The rostral bundle seems to be split into a longer thinner dorsolateral bundle and a seemingly less fasciculated medial bundle. The caudal bundle seems to be split into two and perhaps 3 bundles. Both bundles rostral and caudal show perpendicular projections of axons coursing towards the midline. There are also clearly labelled cell bodies in the dorsolateral edge of the wholemount, most likely in the alar plate. These lateral cell bodies can be found in r4 and r5 but they also seem to be present in r3. C

Efferent neurons are found in both r4-r5 and appear to occupy a more ventral position than the VII efferents. Labelling appears to be more intense in r4, where there seem to be two groups - a more dorsal one in a more lateral position and a more ventral one with cells all the way to the floor plate.

High magnification of the floor plate also shows extensions crossing the floor plate.
