Fig. 3 Fig. 3. Gene expression profiling of foxc1a nju18 hearts. A: A flow chart of the heart collection and RNA extraction process. B: GO analysis shows significant GO terms. C: KEGG pathway analysis shows enriched KEGG terms obtained. D: A heatmap of 28 selected differentially expressed genes from the RNA sequencing data. The color blocks indicate the direction and degree of the fold change (log2[FC] values). E: Whole-mount in situ hybridization (WISH) and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) of 72 hpf and 96 hpf hearts show the expression patterns of wwtr1. Sample size of WISH: WT (n = 5), foxc1a nju18 (n = 3) at 72 hpf; WT (n = 7), foxc1a nju18 (n = 8) at 96 hpf. All images are ventral views with the head oriented upward. F: The qRT-PCR evaluating the expression levels of Notch signaling related genes in the hearts of foxc1a nju18 mutants and WT siblings. ∗, P < 0.05; ∗∗, P < 0.01. Error bars represent the standard deviation.
