Fig. 2 Fig. 2. Cortisol rapidly stimulates [(Ca2+)i] wave in zebrafish muscle. (a) Representative images of the developing trunk muscle (DTM) loaded with the ratiometric dye FURA-2AM either with (100 ng/ml) or without the addition of cortisol. (b) A representative line graph of the temporal calcium dynamics in response to cortisol (CORT) addition over a 5 min period. FURA-2AM intensity was recorded at 5 s intervals. (c) Graph showing the ratiometric FURA-2AM intensity with different concentrations of cortisol (10, 50 and 100 ng/ml) at 30 s post-cortisol addition. All bars represent mean ± SEM (n = 4?5 independent embryos); bars with different letters are significantly different; one-way ANOVA; Holm Sidak post hoc test; p < 0.05.
