Fig. 1
Adult zebrafish lateral line hair cell regeneration after neomycin-induced ablation. Confocal z-stack maximum projection images of a peduncle stitch (11 neuromasts) of an adult sqet20Et;Tg(Ca-tuba1a:tdTomato) zebrafish with hair cells labeled with tdTomato (red) and a subset of support cells labeled with GFP (green). (A) Adult zebrafish peduncle neuromasts (left panel) were treated with 400 µM neomycin for 1 h (middle panel) and then allowed to recover for 72 h to assess hair cell regeneration (right panel). (B) Results are graphed as average number of hair cells per neuromast (±s.d.) for each treatment group. N=4 adult zebrafish per group, 40+ neuromasts per group. Scale bar, 10 µm.
