What is a Theiler Stage and how does it relate to dpc values?
A. A Theiler Stage is a stage of mouse embryo development based on the external and/or internal morphological development of the embryo, that is not directly dependent on either age or size. The mouse embryonic period proper is divided into 26 Theiler stages. As a rough guide, Theiler stages and the approximate dpc values in (C57BL/6 x CBA) F1 embryos are: TS01 ~0.5 dpc TS02 ~1.0 dpc TS03 ~2.0 dpc TS04 ~3.0 dpc TS05 ~4.0 dpc TS06 ~4.5 dpc TS07 ~5.0 dpc TS08 ~6.0 dpc TS09 ~6.5 dpc TS10 ~7.0 dpc TS11 ~7.5 dpc TS12 ~8.0 dpc TS13 ~8.5 dpc TS14 ~9.0 dpc TS15 ~9.5 dpc TS16 ~10.0 dpc TS17 ~10.5 dpc TS18 ~11.0 dpc TS19 ~11.5 dpc TS20 ~12.0 dpc TS21 ~13.0 dpc TS22 ~14.0 dpc TS23 ~15.0 dpc TS24 ~16.0 dpc TS25 ~17.0 dpc TS26 ~18.0 dpc More information about Theiler staging is available from the EMAP mouse embryo anatomy atlas.
