β-galactosidase expression activated by B6.EIIa-cre in adult thymus
![]() A) Adult (8 weeks old) female thymus, at 2X magnification. β-gal expression is strong and widespread in the thymus. |
![]() B) Adult male thymus, at 20X magnification. |
![]() C) The same section from A, at 20X magnification. β-gal expression is incomplete, but not restricted to specific cell types. | |
| Note: The difference between β-gal expression for the male and female samples are just initial observations. No quantification was conducted to determine if a true sex-based difference is present with the B6.EIIa-cre line. Compare to P7 thymus. | |
