PREFACE
This atlas is designed to support research in neurosciencegene
manipulationmolecular biology and neurotoxicology. For
researchers unfamiliar with the developing mouse brainfull
sections are shown to aid in the orientation and comparison to their
own sections. This atlas provides complete sets of sagittalcoronal
and horizontal sectionsuseful when determining which plane of
sectioning may be most advantageous for a particular study. For
instancesagittal and horizontal sections are well suited for a quick
scan of a brainwhile coronal sections provide more detailed
information. In the color images the hematoxylin stain provides
excellent information on neurons at different stages of
developmenti.e.neuroblasts in ventricular zones are darkly
stained while maturing neurons in intermediate zones are lightly
stained. In contrastdeveloping pathways and their glial scaffolding
are stained deeply pink with eosin. Regions of particular
developmental interestfor example the eyecranial nerve nuclei,
or gangliaare photographed at higher power to show different
stages of development. Special attention has been given to
ventricular zonesthe origin of all brain structuresin order to assist
tracking cells carrying a specific gene. For instanceusing the
bacterial artificial chromosome vector method of producing
transgenic mice (Nature : )the development of
the neurons in a gene specific nucleus could be traced back to two
progenitor cell in a related ventricular zone.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
I want to acknowledge my autistic son Ericwhose continued
struggle with his developmental disabilities inspired me to study
normal and abnormal brain development in order to contribute to the
research into the puzzle of autism.
Also I want to thank my graduate advisorsDrs. Jean Lauder and
Kathy Sulik who supported and encouraged me as an adult student to
begin this work. Part of my Ph. D. dissertation resulted in the first
prenatal mouse brain atlas (Atlas of the Prenatal Mouse BrainUta
B. SchambraJean M. Lauder and Jerry SilverAcademic Press,
). That effort reflected my still growing knowledge of the
developing mouse brain. I trust that the revisions in this new brain
atlas reflect the most recent knowledge in the field of murine
developmental neuroanatomy.
I am greatly indebted and thankful to my assistantBarbara A.
Connellyfor her outstanding technical work in preparation of the
computer drawings from my tracings. She skillfully and patiently
dealt with the neverending stream of annotationsand prepared the
manuscript and DVD for publication. I particularly appreciate her
tireless and goodnatured help throughout this project.
I also wish to express my gratitude to Brunhilde ToberMeyer,
DVMMSwho out of friendship gave up golden days of retirement
to tackle the unwieldy index (,+ entries were included). Her
positive attitude towards this project and meticulous work was a
great relief to me. I am very thankful for her help.
I thank the Pathology Department at East Tennessee State
University for the permission to use their Shandon Veristain
automated hematoxylin and eosin stainer to process the large number
of slides for this project.
This work was supported by the Dean of the Quillen College of
Medicine and the Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology at East
Tennessee State University and by Springer Science + Business
MediaLLC.
Thanks for their encouragement and patience to the editorial and
production staff at SpringerJoseph BurnsAnn AvourisDeborah
Doherty and Laurin Becker.
Lastbut not leastI want to recognize the excellent works by
Altman and BayerPaxinos et al.Jacobowitz and Abbottand
Kaufman (see reference list) whose publications helped me
tremendously in my understanding of the developing rodent brain.

INTRODUCTION
This Prenatal Mouse Brain Atlas provides comprehensive
documentation of mouse brain development until shortly before birth
(gestational day (GD) . average). It follows brain development
from early discernable structures in embryonic heads on GD and
GD to more clearly defined structures in fetal brains on GD
and GD . For additional informationsections are presented in the
three cardinal planessagittalcoronal and horizontal. Genetic or
toxicological manipulations may result in damaged offspring which
are recognized by the mouse dams and cannibalized within the first
few days. This makes studying the effects of manipulation in
postnatal animals problematicthus giving importance to a prenatal
mouse brain atlas.
For ease of usewe only use unabbreviated annotations. Structures
are identified with terms used in adult animals even if they are only
an anlage or a precursor. Tracts are often labeled even though axons
have not grown along the brightly eosin stained glial pathway.
For conveniencea DVD is provided which contains all color
imagesmatching drawings and the drawings superimposed on the
images. This DVD provides an additional tool for the researcher who
may want to print specific pages for further use.
The web siteElectronic Prenatal Mouse Brain Atlas,
www.epmba.orgprovides expanded sets of annotated GD and
GD coronal imageswhich can be viewed in high magnification.
The GD coronal set can also be viewed as D presentationand
can be virtually sectioned at different planes.

METHODS
The widely used inbred mouse strainCBl/J (The Jackson
Laboratories)was chosen for preparation of this atlas. Ten to
weekold females were timemated from to am. The day a
copulation plug was found was considered gestational day (GD) .
At the time of sacrifice ( am) on GD or pregnant
dams were anesthetized with an intraperitoneal injection of chloral
hydrate ( mg/kg body weight). Embryos/fetuses were removed
from the uterusand their crownrump length (CRL) recorded.
Specimen of average CRL were chosen as follows: GD mm;
GD mm; GD mm; and GD mm.
GD embryos were immersed in Bouin’s fixative for hrsand
then rinsed in % ethanol for week. GD embryos and GD
and GD fetuses were perfused transcardially at room temperature,
first with ml of . M phosphate buffered saline (PBS)and then
for to min (depending on size) with % paraformaldehyde in
PBS using a Masterflex pump (flow rate . ml/min). Following
perfusionwhole heads (GD ) or brains (GD GD ) were
immersed overnight in the same fixative at °Cand then washed for
two days in several changes of PBS.
Specimens with similar CRL were selected and dehydrated in an
ascending series of ethanols and xylenes. For embedding in
Paraplastspecimens were placed on their sides for sagittalwith
faces down for coronalon their ventral surfaces for horizontal
sectioning. Sagittalcoronal and horizontal sections were then cut at
m with a rotary microtome. Because of sidewise rotation of the
GD embryos and the mesencepalic and pontine flexuressections
are not always strictly parallel to the midline or coronal. The GD
coronal embryo suffered forceps damage to its right cortexwhich
resulted in hematomas in the brain. Interestinglythese show well the
still nucleated red and other developing blood cells.
Tissue sections were deparaffinized in xylenes ( x min);
ethanols (%: x min%; x min); running tap water
( min); stained with hematoxylin (Richard Allan #Fisher
Scientific; min); rinsed with running tap water ( min); background
staining removed with acid alcohol ( ml conc. HCl / ml %
ethanol; sec); rinsed in running tap water ( min); passed through a
bluing solution (ammonia water; ml NH / ml HO; sec);
rinsed in running tap water ( min) and % ethanol ( x sec);
stained with eosin Y (Richard Allan #Fisher Scientific; min);
dehydrated with % ethanol ( x min); % ethanol ( x min);
and xylenes ( x min).
Stained sections were selected by areas of interest rather than at
equal intervals. Whole sections were photographed with a Spot
Insight ver. ... digital camera (Diagnostic Instruments) using a
Leica Wild M macroscope. High magnification images were
photographed using a Leitz Laborlux S with xx and x
objectives. Images were captured on a Mac Power PC Gand then
traced using Adobe Illustrator CS ver. .. computer graphics
systems. Structures were delineated as follows: central nervous
system structuresinner ear and eye point (pt) solid; fiber tracts,
. pt dashed; gangliaolfactory and auditory epithelium. pt
solid; peripheral nerves. pt dotted; head structures. pt solid;
vessels. pt dashed. Color of images was adjustedif necessaryin

PREFACE
This atlas is designed to support research in neurosciencegene
manipulationmolecular biology and neurotoxicology. For
researchers unfamiliar with the developing mouse brainfull
sections are shown to aid in the orientation and comparison to their
own sections. This atlas provides complete sets of sagittalcoronal
and horizontal sectionsuseful when determining which plane of
sectioning may be most advantageous for a particular study. For
instancesagittal and horizontal sections are well suited for a quick
scan of a brainwhile coronal sections provide more detailed
information. In the color images the hematoxylin stain provides
excellent information on neurons at different stages of
developmenti.e.neuroblasts in ventricular zones are darkly
stained while maturing neurons in intermediate zones are lightly
stained. In contrastdeveloping pathways and their glial scaffolding
are stained deeply pink with eosin. Regions of particular
developmental interestfor example the eyecranial nerve nuclei,
or gangliaare photographed at higher power to show different
stages of development. Special attention has been given to
ventricular zonesthe origin of all brain structuresin order to assist
tracking cells carrying a specific gene. For instanceusing the
bacterial artificial chromosome vector method of producing
transgenic mice (Nature : )the development of
the neurons in a gene specific nucleus could be traced back to two
progenitor cell in a related ventricular zone.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
I want to acknowledge my autistic son Ericwhose continued
struggle with his developmental disabilities inspired me to study
normal and abnormal brain development in order to contribute to the
research into the puzzle of autism.
Also I want to thank my graduate advisorsDrs. Jean Lauder and
Kathy Sulik who supported and encouraged me as an adult student to
begin this work. Part of my Ph. D. dissertation resulted in the first
prenatal mouse brain atlas (Atlas of the Prenatal Mouse BrainUta
B. SchambraJean M. Lauder and Jerry SilverAcademic Press,
). That effort reflected my still growing knowledge of the
developing mouse brain. I trust that the revisions in this new brain
atlas reflect the most recent knowledge in the field of murine
developmental neuroanatomy.
I am greatly indebted and thankful to my assistantBarbara A.
Connellyfor her outstanding technical work in preparation of the
computer drawings from my tracings. She skillfully and patiently
dealt with the neverending stream of annotationsand prepared the
manuscript and DVD for publication. I particularly appreciate her
tireless and goodnatured help throughout this project.
I also wish to express my gratitude to Brunhilde ToberMeyer,
DVMMSwho out of friendship gave up golden days of retirement
to tackle the unwieldy index (,+ entries were included). Her
positive attitude towards this project and meticulous work was a
great relief to me. I am very thankful for her help.
I thank the Pathology Department at East Tennessee State
University for the permission to use their Shandon Veristain
automated hematoxylin and eosin stainer to process the large number
of slides for this project.
This work was supported by the Dean of the Quillen College of
Medicine and the Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology at East
Tennessee State University and by Springer Science + Business
MediaLLC.
Thanks for their encouragement and patience to the editorial and
production staff at SpringerJoseph BurnsAnn AvourisDeborah
Doherty and Laurin Becker.
Lastbut not leastI want to recognize the excellent works by
Altman and BayerPaxinos et al.Jacobowitz and Abbottand
Kaufman (see reference list) whose publications helped me
tremendously in my understanding of the developing rodent brain.

INTRODUCTION
This Prenatal Mouse Brain Atlas provides comprehensive
documentation of mouse brain development until shortly before birth
(gestational day (GD) . average). It follows brain development
from early discernable structures in embryonic heads on GD and
GD to more clearly defined structures in fetal brains on GD
and GD . For additional informationsections are presented in the
three cardinal planessagittalcoronal and horizontal. Genetic or
toxicological manipulations may result in damaged offspring which
are recognized by the mouse dams and cannibalized within the first
few days. This makes studying the effects of manipulation in
postnatal animals problematicthus giving importance to a prenatal
mouse brain atlas.
For ease of usewe only use unabbreviated annotations. Structures
are identified with terms used in adult animals even if they are only
an anlage or a precursor. Tracts are often labeled even though axons
have not grown along the brightly eosin stained glial pathway.
For conveniencea DVD is provided which contains all color
imagesmatching drawings and the drawings superimposed on the
images. This DVD provides an additional tool for the researcher who
may want to print specific pages for further use.
The web siteElectronic Prenatal Mouse Brain Atlas,
www.epmba.orgprovides expanded sets of annotated GD and
GD coronal imageswhich can be viewed in high magnification.
The GD coronal set can also be viewed as D presentationand
can be virtually sectioned at different planes.

METHODS
The widely used inbred mouse strainCBl/J (The Jackson
Laboratories)was chosen for preparation of this atlas. Ten to
weekold females were timemated from to am. The day a
copulation plug was found was considered gestational day (GD) .
At the time of sacrifice ( am) on GD or pregnant
dams were anesthetized with an intraperitoneal injection of chloral
hydrate ( mg/kg body weight). Embryos/fetuses were removed
from the uterusand their crownrump length (CRL) recorded.
Specimen of average CRL were chosen as follows: GD mm;
GD mm; GD mm; and GD mm.
GD embryos were immersed in Bouin’s fixative for hrsand
then rinsed in % ethanol for week. GD embryos and GD
and GD fetuses were perfused transcardially at room temperature,
first with ml of . M phosphate buffered saline (PBS)and then
for to min (depending on size) with % paraformaldehyde in
PBS using a Masterflex pump (flow rate . ml/min). Following
perfusionwhole heads (GD ) or brains (GD GD ) were
immersed overnight in the same fixative at °Cand then washed for
two days in several changes of PBS.
Specimens with similar CRL were selected and dehydrated in an
ascending series of ethanols and xylenes. For embedding in
Paraplastspecimens were placed on their sides for sagittalwith
faces down for coronalon their ventral surfaces for horizontal
sectioning. Sagittalcoronal and horizontal sections were then cut at
m with a rotary microtome. Because of sidewise rotation of the
GD embryos and the mesencepalic and pontine flexuressections
are not always strictly parallel to the midline or coronal. The GD
coronal embryo suffered forceps damage to its right cortexwhich
resulted in hematomas in the brain. Interestinglythese show well the
still nucleated red and other developing blood cells.
Tissue sections were deparaffinized in xylenes ( x min);
ethanols (%: x min%; x min); running tap water
( min); stained with hematoxylin (Richard Allan #Fisher
Scientific; min); rinsed with running tap water ( min); background
staining removed with acid alcohol ( ml conc. HCl / ml %
ethanol; sec); rinsed in running tap water ( min); passed through a
bluing solution (ammonia water; ml NH / ml HO; sec);
rinsed in running tap water ( min) and % ethanol ( x sec);
stained with eosin Y (Richard Allan #Fisher Scientific; min);
dehydrated with % ethanol ( x min); % ethanol ( x min);
and xylenes ( x min).
Stained sections were selected by areas of interest rather than at
equal intervals. Whole sections were photographed with a Spot
Insight ver. ... digital camera (Diagnostic Instruments) using a
Leica Wild M macroscope. High magnification images were
photographed using a Leitz Laborlux S with xx and x
objectives. Images were captured on a Mac Power PC Gand then
traced using Adobe Illustrator CS ver. .. computer graphics
systems. Structures were delineated as follows: central nervous
system structuresinner ear and eye point (pt) solid; fiber tracts,
. pt dashed; gangliaolfactory and auditory epithelium. pt
solid; peripheral nerves. pt dotted; head structures. pt solid;
vessels. pt dashed. Color of images was adjustedif necessaryin
