(A) As a combination of gain-of-function and rescue experiments, we soaked zebrafish embryos in a saline solution containing 0.2μM of RA from 24 to 60 hpf. Approcimately 75% of RA-treated embryos displayed severe edema in the epicardial sacs (red arrowheads). (B) When a duplex of miR-143 was injected, RA-induced edema was reduced to only mild to weak edema. (C) Occurrence of the edematous phenotype in the heart. Injection of the miR-143 duplez resulted in the edematous phenotype in all embryos, with severe epicardial edema in more than 70% of cases. When the RA treatment and the injection of the duplex were combined, this phenotype became milder. |
