Development of the central nervous system in zebrafish.

a Detection of early neuronal precursor cells by whole-mount in situ hybridization with a pan-neuronal marker, huC, at the neural plate stage (10.5 h after fertilization). Unpublished data. b Immunostaining of axonal growth in the spinal cord of one-day-old zebrafish. Double-staining with anti-gicerin antibody and anti-HNK-1 antibody28. c Confocal image of myelin structure in an isolated adult zebrafish brain visualized by mbp promoter-driven membrane-tagged GFP, Tg(mbp:mEGFP). Arrows indicate the olfactory, optic, and otic nerves. Unpublished data.

Subcellular organelles in the developing zebrafish embryos.

a Using transgenic zebrafish lines 5 dpf, mitochondria, Tg(Xla.Eef1a:MLS-EGFP), and peroxisomes, Tg(Xla. Eef1a:RFP-SKL), in the skin of the developing larva are visualized. b Motile cilia (green) in the hindbrain 4th ventricle are visualized with anti-acetylated tubulin antibody, and nuclei are shown in red. Unpublished data.

Bile duct formation in the developing zebrafish liver 6 dpf.

a, b Using a transgenic zebrafish line, Tg(Tp1:H2BmCherry), biliary epithelial cell nuclei are labeled red. The bile duct in the developing liver is visualized using the BODIPY FL-C5 dye (a) or the anti-cytokeratin 18 antibody (b). Unpublished data.
