Fig. 1. (A) A secondary axis can be induced in developing Xenopus embryos by injection of RNA encoding β-catenin into a ventral cell of 4-cell stage embryos. Ventral cells are usually distinguished by their larger size and darker pigment compared to dorsal cells. For detailed methods see (Kuhl and Pandur, 2008a). (B) The duplicated axis is visible in neurula stage embryos within 2 days of injection. Embryos in these images have undergone in situ hybridisation for neuralβ-tubulin to illustrate the bilateral stripes of primary neurons and trigeminal　https://www.researchgate.net/publication/272524241_An_oncologist%27s_friend_How_Xenopus_contributes_to_Cancer_research/figures
