Transgenic zebrafish study.
(A) Schematic view of the Tol2 transposon-based plasmid carrying a 185 bp zebrafish nphs2 promoter. (B-D) Transient GFP expression in zebrafish podocytes at 4 dpf. Lateral view (B), confocal image (C), and dorsal view (D). Pronephros and dorsal aorta are indicated by arrows and an arrowhead, respectively. (E) GFP expression rate in 4 dpf-embryos injected with different constructs. The plasmid without inserts was used as a control for the baseline. The HCS3-A or -C sequence was subcloned upstream of the promoter. They are schematically shown in left panel. The bar graph illustrates expression rate (%) and total number of G0 embryos for assessment are indicated in parentheses.
