The Bmp2b inhibitor suppresses OPC migration to the dorsal area. (A,B) qRT-PCR analysis indicated that bmp2b gene mRNA expression was significantly downregulated after hypoxia and CoCl₂ exposure. (C,D) Bmp2b protein expression was analyzed with western blots. The results showed that hypoxia blocked Bmp2b protein translation. Thirty zebrafish 4-dpf larvae were pooled for western blots experiments. (E,F) The number of dorsally migrated olig2⁺ cells at 3 and 4 dpf decreased after LDN193189 treatment. E1′, E2′, E3′, and E4′ are magnified pictures of the white boxes in E1, E2, E3, and E4. Scale bars: E1–E4, 50 μm and E1′–E4′, 10 μm. Two-way ANOVA, P < 0.0001: Student’s two-tailed t-test. Significantly more cells were dorsally migrated in 3-dpf control larvae as compared to 3-dpf larvae treated with 10 μM LDN193189 (n = 12; P < 0.0001). Significantly more cells were dorsally migrated in 4-dpf normoxic larvae as compared to 4-dpf larvae treated with 10 μM LDN193189 (n = 10; P < 0.0001). ^∗P < 0.05; ^∗∗P < 0.01; ^∗∗∗P < 0.001; ^∗∗∗∗P < 0.0001. Error bars represent S.E.M.
