The orobasal organ (of Ackerknecht) is present in prenatal mice by Sven Schumann, Sven Schumann, Sven Schumann, Jan R. Munk, Michael J. Schmeisser, Michael J. Schmeisser, Moritz Staeber

“…This orobasal organ (of Ackerknecht) is present in different mammalian species including humans, but its presence in mice was under debate in literature. While the function of the orobasal organ is still unknown, it might play a role in the development of cysts of the oral floor.MethodsH&amp;E-stained histological serial slides of the developing oral floor of C57BL/6J mice embryos were investigated (n = 40).ResultsThe orobasal organ was present in mice and developed between prenatal days E15 and E17 (prevalence in E15 embryos: 0%, prevalence in E17 embryos: 90.5%). …”
