Fig. 9 Effects of forced expression of SCL on the trunk endothelium and interrenal tissue in Tg(flk1:EGFP)^s843;clo^m39 mutants. Single confocal sections showing the interrenal tissues as detected by 3β-Hsd activity staining (Left panel: A, D, G), and the neighboring ECs as revealed by green fluorescence from Tg(flk1:EGFP)^s843 background (B, E, H), of 78 hpf homozygous clo^m39 mutants (D–I) and their wild-type siblings (A–C), injected either with pCS2+ plasmid control (cmv; A–F) or pCS2+SCL (cmv-SCL; G–I). The merged images of 3β-Hsd activity staining and GFP are shown in the right panel (C, F, I). All panels are dorsal views with anterior oriented to the top. The trunk vasculature as well as interrenal phenotypes of wild-type siblings being injected with cmv-SCL were essentially not varying from those injected with cmv, and are hence not shown. The defective fusion of bilateral interrenal primordia in clo^m39 is alleviated while the trunk endothelium is partially rescued. DA, dorsal aorta; PCV, posterior cardinal vein. Red arrowheads indicate interrenal tissues. Scale bar, 50 μM.
