Abstract

To visualize the effects of experimental perturbations on normal cellular behavior, morphology, and intracellular organization, we use a simple whole-mount immunocytochemical method with Xenopus oocytes, explants, or embryos. This method is applicable to a wide range of systems, including human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived organoids, and can be used with both chromogenic (horseradish peroxidase/diaminobenzidine) and fluorescent imaging.
