Proepicardial organ lies in apposition to the myocardium of the embryonic heart. (A) A lateral view of the zebrafish heart at about 50 hpf with clusters of spherical cells seen using differential interference contrast optics nestled between the atrium and the yolk (arrow) and adjacent to the sinus venosus (arrowhead). Anterior is to the right. (B) Ventral view of the heart (50 hpf) with a cluster of cells attached to the outer ventricular wall (arrow). Anterior is at the top of the panel. at: atrium, v: ventricle. Movies of these embryos can be found in the supplemental information section. |
