Lpin 1 deficiency impaired the maturation of schwann cells and myelin synthesis. (A-B') GFP signals of 5 dpf Tg(mbp:eGFP) larvae was visualized by fluorescent microscope, yellow arrows indicated GFP signal in the spinal cord, and red arrows indicated GFP signal motor neurons, lateral views, scale bar: 100 μm. (C) Mbp fluorescence signals of control embryos and lpin1 morphants were analyzed by Image J software. Ten independent samples were evaluated. (D) qRT-PCR measurements of immature SC markers, mature SC markers, and myelin gene markers in lpin1 morphants and STD-MO injected embryos at 3dpf. (E-G) qRT-PCR measurements of pou3f1, egr2b, and mpz dynamic expression at 1 dpf, 3 dpf, and 5 dpf respectively. Values in (D-G) represented means ± SE of data from three independent experiments, **p< 0.01, and ***p < 0.001 (Student's t-test).
