Figure 5

Endocardial protrusions are necessary for nrg2a function.

(A?D) Confocal projection images of the heart of Tg(myl7:HsHRAS-EGFP) larvae at 72 hours post-fertilization (hpf). (A?B) Overexpression of nrg2a in the endothelium (B) leads to an increased number of trabeculae (arrowheads) and the multilayering of cardiomyocytes (CMs) (brackets) compared with wild-type (A). (C) Larvae with endothelial overexpression of nrg2a and irsp53^dn exhibit a reduced number of trabeculae (arrowheads) and of multilayered CMs (brackets) compared with larvae with endothelial overexpression of nrg2a alone (B). (D) apln mutant larvae with endothelial overexpression of nrg2a exhibit a reduced number of trabeculae (arrowheads) and of multilayered CMs (brackets) compared with wild-type larvae with endothelial overexpression of nrg2a (B). (E) Quantification of the number of trabeculae. (F) Quantification of the number of trabecular CMs. (G) Quantification of the number of multilayered CMs in the ventricle. Brackets indicate multilayered CMs. All images are ventral views, anterior to the top. V, ventricle. Data in graphs expressed as mean � SEM.
