Perichondrial ossification of the zebrafish palatoquadrate. The central panel shows a magnified view of the palatoquadrate cartilage in a wild type zebrafish larva. Anterior is to the left. The tissue is stained with Alizarin Red to view early bone deposition. An orthogonal reconstruction of a z-stack through the crosshairs shows two layers of a bone matrix (double asterisks) enveloping a sheet of chondrocytes (visualized by Nomarski optics). q, region of the future quadrate bone, which is not yet undergoing endochondral replacement; sy, early ossification of the symplectic. |
