DFO partially rescues hypomotility of trpm7 mutants. DFO treatment increased spontaneous motility of 5-dpf, trpm7b508 mutant larvae. Automated analysis of motility was carried out as in Fig. 2. For each experiment, half of a single clutch of larvae from trpm7 heterozygous adults was treated with 50 µM DFO from 2-5 dpf. Motility of control larvae was unaffected by DFO treatment (Student′s t-test, p>0.4). Motility of the trpm7 mutant was significantly increased by treatment with DFO in darkness (Student′s t-test, p<0.05). Each group tested consisted of 23-24 animals. Error bars represent SEM. Asterisks, significantly different values.
