Biliary epithelial cells segregate from the intrahepatic biliary network in lri31 (IZ-1.6) mutant larvae at 5 dpf. (A–C) Projected confocal images of wild-type (A) and lri31 (IZ-1.6) mutant (B and C) larvae visualized for Tg(Tp1-MmHbb:EGFP)um14 expressions at 5 dpf. Tg(kdrl:RFP_CAAX)y171 expressions are merged in (A′-C′). Yellow-outlined area in B is magnified and shown in C. Blue-outlined area in C is magnified and merged with the DAPI and GFP co-localization signal in the left bottom corner. Ventral views, anterior to the top. In lri31 (IZ-1.6) mutant larvae, single biliary epithelial cells segregate from the intrahepatic biliary network and make physical contact with the intrahepatic vascular network (White arrowhead in C). DAPI and GFP co-localization assays revealed that six BECs are segregated from the main biliary tree in this larva. |
