Mouse preimplantation embryos at various stages of development immunofluorescently stained for the presence of lineage-specific markers, DNA (blue) and F-actin (green). Top left: 16-cell embryo stained for the presence of F-actin and pERM (yellow). Top right: early blastocyst revealing the location of F-actin and the trophectoderm marker Cdx2 (red). Bottom: late blastocyst fluorescently labeled with the trophectoderm marker Cdx2 (red), the epiblast marker Sox2 (white) and the primitive endoderm marker Sox17 (green). DNA was labeled with Draq5.
