Pdgfra homozygous mutants exhibit abnormal cardiac phenotypes. An incross of the pdgfra gene-trapped strain carrying a Tg(cmlc2:EGFP) transgene was used to investigate the cardiac phenotype. (A) At 48?hpf, mild and severe ?/? mutants present with abnormal cardiac looping; severe ?/? embryos also develop an enlarged atrium and pericardial edema. (B) At 96?hpf, the hearts of mild ?/? mutants remain incompletely looped, while severe ?/? mutants present with collapsed chambers and pericardial edema. Arrows pointing at ventricle (V) and atrium (A). The fish cranium is on the left. Scale bar: 100??m. |
