Cryptococcal infection leads to increased tension across VE-cadherin.

A-C Infection of FRET tension reporter (VE-cadherin-TS) transgenic zebrafish line with 1000 cfu mCherry C. neoformans A-B FRET = YFP signal via FRET with excitation of CFP, CFP = CFP signal with direct excitation of CFP, YFP = YFP signal with direct excitation of YFP. A images of non-infected control vessels B Image showing infected fish, vessel containing a mass (left) and a vessel without a mass (right) C FRET analysis of infected fish with or without masses and non-infected controls larvae (n = 2, 4–7 larvae per repeat, +/- SD, **p<0.01, Kruskal-Wallis test, where vessel fluorescence was measured at each side of vessel) D Proportion of infected fish with disseminated infection. 7 repeats, 10 zebrafish larvae per repeat per group. P = 0.036 unpaired t-test.
