foxc1b:EGFP expressing mesenchymal cells attach to vessels and take on a vSMC morphology. A) Images of the ventral head in 2 dpf zebrafish embryos show foxc1b:EGFP positive mesenchymal cells near the endothelium (kdrl:mCherry; n = 19 embryos). B) At 3 dpf, foxc1b:EGFP positive cells associate with the endothelium (n = 14 embryos). Arrowheads indicate mural cells associated with the endothelium. C) At 4 dpf, foxc1b:EGFP positive cells flatten and tightly associate with the endothelium (n = 11 embryos). Scale bars represent 50 μm. |
