IGFBP2 dampens IGF signaling in zebrafish larvae, related to Figure 4.
(A-C?) Confocal images of 48 hpf tailfins labeled with anti-pIGFR antibody (green) reveals numerous puncta in both pitpnc1a -/- (B, B?) and pitpnc1a +/+ (C, C?) embryos, which are nearly eliminated after soaking in 1 ng/?L IGFBP2 (C, C?). D) IGFBP2 dose-dependently reduces brain c-fos levels and reduces growth in pitpnc1a -/- embryos. E-G) pitpnc1a -/- animals have slightly larger brains than pitpnc1a+/+ larvae. E) Inter-ocular distance (red line) and brain length (green) were measured relative to total body length (not shown). F) Mutant brains are significantly (4.2%) larger than wild type (p=0.03, one-tailed t-test) as measured by interocular distance G) and trending (1.3%) larger by length (p=0.13, one-tailed t-test). Scale bars, A-C?, 20 ?m.
