Fig. 6

Hapln1b and sh3gl3 are mediators of vascular development.

(A–F) Flk1:gfp transgenic embryos injected with 2 ng of a translation blocking morpholino (MO) targeting hapln1b arrests angiogenic sprouting of the intersomitic vessels (asterisks in panels B, D, F; compare to their counterparts in A, C, and E respectively), resulting in delayed and improper dorsal longitudinal anastomotic vessel formation (arrow in D). Furthermore, the caudal vascular plexus is dilated relative to wild-type controls at 28 hours post fertilization (hpf) (compare the identical sized bracket in panels E and F). (G and H) Injection of 3 ng of translation blocking MO targeting sh3gl3 results in a thinner dorsal aorta (arrow in H) relative to wild type controls (G) at 72 hpf. Abbreviations: dlav, dorsal longitudinal anastomotic vessels; isv, intersomitic vessels; da, dorsal aorta; and pcv, posterior cardinal vein.
