Summary of the Distinct Epicardial Cell Populations in the Developing Zebrafish Heart

(A) Zebrafish heart at 5 dpf, showing the distributions of Epi1-3.

(B) Loss of tgm2b disrupts the integrity of the epicardial cell layer.

(C) Loss of sema3fb increases the number of Epi2 cells in the BA, possibly owing to increased cell migration from the epicardium.

(D) Loss of cxcl12a decreases the number of myeloid cells on the heart. V, ventricle; BA, bulbus arteriosus.
