Junctional F-Actin Cables Assemble and Rearrange during Lumen Formation

(A–D) Stills from time-lapse movies illustrating ISV lumenization in uninjected and in fmnl3 morpholino-injected Tg(fli1ep:Lifeact-EGFP);Tg(kdr-l:ras-Cherry)s916 embryos. The magenta arrow shows apical membrane. The black arrow show basal membrane, and the arrowhead shows junctional F-actin cable. The asterisk shows lumen in (B) and vacuole in (D). Scale bars represent 10 µm.

(E and F) Stills from a time-lapse movie of the DLAV from a Tg(fli1ep:Lifeact-EGFP);Tg(kdr-l:ras-Cherry)s916 embryo injected with fmnl3 morpholino (E) or Tg(fli1ep:Lifeact-EGFP) embryo with mosaic fmnl3ΔC expression (*) (F). The arrow shows activated EC, and the arrowhead shows vessel disconnection. Scale bar represents 10 µm.
