(A - D) Confocal projection images of the blood vasculature in the trunk region of Tg(flt1:tdTomato) (A) and Tg(fli1a:EGFP) (B–D) animals at 54 (B–D) and 72 (A) hpf. (A) Injection of a dll4 morpholino leads to an increase in TgBAC(apln:EGFP) expression. (B) Loss of Apelin function can block excessive endothelial sprouting in dll4 morphants. (C, E) Angiogenic response in aplnrb -/-, plxnd1 -/-, and aplnrb -/-; plxnd1 -/- embryos (arrowheads) (n = 95). (D, F) Angiogenic response to bmp2b overexpression in aplnr +/- and aplnr -/- embryos (arrowheads). (E) Genotype of embryos for aplnrb after sorting them according to phenotype. (G) RT-qPCR analysis of APELIN mRNA levels in HUVECs treated with DAPT for 24 hr. Blocking Notch signaling with DAPT induces APELIN expression. (H) RT-qPCR analysis of APELIN mRNA levels in HUVECs cultured on DLL4 to activate Notch signaling. Activating Notch signaling represses APELIN expression. Arrowheads point to ectopic sprouts. n.s. not significant (two-tailed t-test). Ct values can be found in Figure 4—source data 1. Scale bars: A, C, 20 µm; B, 15 µm; D, 30 µm.
