miR-19a dysregulation affects zebrafish heart development.

(A,B) Tg(Myl7:EGFP) embryos were injected with increasing amounts of miR-Ct or miR-19a mimics. (A) Images of representative 72 hpf Tg(Myl7:EGFP) embryo phenotypes. (B) Percentage of embryos with the indicated phenotypes, averaged across multiple independent experiments carried out in double blind. (D,E) Phenotypes of 72 hpf Tg(Myl7:EGFP) embryos co-injected with 0.5 ng of MO-Tbx5a and with 8ng of MO-19a or MO-Ct. N, total numbers of analyzed embryos. Scale bar 100 μm. hts: heartstring phenotype; mild defects: general cardiac defects; WT: wild type heart. NO fins: pectoral fins absence, WT fins: wild type pectoral fins. P values by Fisher’s test.
