Abstract
In their initial description of the reelin gene, D’Arcangelo et al. (1995) noted heavy reelin mRNA expression in Cajal-Retzius neurons of the marginal zone (MZ) as well as in external granule cells of the cerebellum and a few other structures. A systematic survey of reelin mRNA expression during mouse brain development was subsequently carried out by Schiffmann et al. (1997), using a reelin-specific antisense oligonucleotide labeled with 35S, as well as DIG-labeled riboprobes. The identification of embryonic mouse brain nuclei was carried out using the embryonic rat brain atlas of Altman and Bayer (1995). A summary of the expression patterns found at the various stages studied is provided in Table 2.
