At E12.5, it is expressed in the odontologenic and osteogenic mesenchyme in the mandible (only the osteogenic mesenchyme is depicted). At E14.5, Msx1 is still expressed in the osteogenic progenitors and tooth mesenchyme. | E10.5 | E12.5 | E14.5 | |-------|-------|-------| | {width=280 height=214} | {width=280 height=214} | {width=280 height=214} | |  Distal mesenchyme |  Odontogenic and osteogenic |  Osteogenic mesenchyme | | | mesenchyme |  Tooth mesenchyme | #### Sources: - Liu et al.
