Characterisation of Mbd3-mutant brains. (A) Representative MBD3 immunostaining (brown) on haematoxylin-stained coronal sections of E12.5, 14.5, 16.5 and 18.5 embryonic wild-type (WT) and mutant (Mbd3 cKO) brains. Black arrows denote the presumptive cortical plate, and white arrows denote the presumptive VZ. Wild-type and mutant sections were stained together on one slide, so the wild type acts as a positive control for staining in the mutant section. Scale bar = 100 μm. (B) Mean measurements of cortical thickness from three non-consecutive coronal sections per brain in wild-type (WT) and Mbd3 cKO) embryos. N = 3-6. *E14.5 P = 0.0192, df = 2; E16.5 P = 0.0001, df = 2; E18.5 P = 0.0001, df = 2. Error bars represent st. dev.
