Renal structure of Takfiugu kidneys. A–E. Paraffin-embedded sections of the kidneys of indicated Takifugu species were stained with hematoxylin and eosin and examined for abundance of glomeruli. All the other species, T. niphobles, T. pardalis, T. poecilonotus, and T. porphyreus, also have glomerulous nephron (data not shown). D. Higher magnification view of the glomeruli of FW-acclimated T. obscurus indicated by a box in A. E. Higher magnification views of the glomeruli of SW-acclimated T. obscurus indicated by boxes in B. F–H. Paraffin-embedded sections of the kidneys of indicated Takifugu species were stained with anti-Na+-K+-ATPase (NKA) antibody (green) and Hoechst 33342 (red). NKA antibody strongly stained basolateral surface of proximal segment (p) and entire cell of distal segment (d). T. niphobles, T. pardalis, and T. poecilonotus showed similar result to T. rubripes (data not shown). I–J. Frozen sections of the kidneys of T. obscurus were stained with anti-NKA antibody (red) and Alaxa Fluor 488-labeled phalloidin (green). Phalloidin binds to actin filaments, and strongly stains a well-developed apical brush border of proximal segments. I. Proximal segment of the nephron of T. obscurus. J.

Progression from Early to Late Pachytene Is Delayed in X Asynapsis Mutants(A) Gonads imaged at 100× and composited. Top: N2; bottom: him-8(mn253). The three yellow lines demarcate a rough separation of the gonad into four sections from left to right: premeiotic, transition zone, early pachytene, and late pachytene. Although each zone contains mainly nuclei of one meiotic substage, the transitions are not completely abrupt, necessitating counting of all nuclei in the gonad to obtain accurate staging. The him-8 gonad contains a higher proportion of early pachytene nuclei, and a lower proportion of late pachytene nuclei, than the N2 gonad. Inset: synapsis is complete between autosomes in the early pachytene region in him-8 gonads, whereas X chromosomes do not synapse (chromosomes, stained with DAPI, are displayed in red; the central element protein SYP-1, detected with immunofluorescence, is displayed in green; arrowheads mark the pycnotic X chromosomes which do exhibit SYP-1 staining.) Right: graph displaying raw numbers of nuclei at each substage for N2 and him-8 gonads. Total numbers of nuclei are displayed for four (N2) or five (him-8) gonads. P, premeiotic; TZ, transition zone; EP, early pachytene, LP, late pachytene.(B) High-magnification view of transitions between meiotic prophase substages. Nuclei are tinted to highlight the classification of stage: green, transition zone nuclei; orange, early pachytene; blue, late pachytene. Arrowheads indicate exemplars of each stage, also shown from left to right in the inset (upper right).Scale bar, 50 μm.

Arrows indicate the position of the inserts and arrowheads indicate autosomal sites of DCC binding in the MSL1 and MSL2 over-expression background. Recruitment of the DCC to the DBF11-85D insert is enhanced when the levels of DCC are increased by over-expression of MSL1 and MSL2 compared to wild-type males. The DBF3-96B insert does not recruit the DCC in wild-type males, but recruitment can be seen when MSL1 and MSL2 are over-expressed.

Temperature effects were also seen when poly-APS was used for intracellular delivery of lucifer yellow. In the absence of poly-APS no intracellular uptake of lucifer yellow was observed over a 3 h incubation period. After incubation with poly-APS and lucifer yellow (1 mM) for 3 h at 21°C a few individual cells were loaded (A), but after incubation at 7°C almost all cells are filled with lucifer yellow (B). Lipofectamine and LipoGen did not deliver lucifer yellow efficiently. Merged transmission and fluorescence images show that a very modest amount of fluorescence was observed after incubation with lipofectamine and lucifer yellow (1 mM) for 3 h at 21°C (C) and no cells were loaded at 7°C (D). Similarly, with LipoGen, little fluorescence was seen after incubation at 21°C (E) and no cells were loaded at 7°C (F).

Comparison of HDGF and HRP-3 expression. Antibodies against HDGF (A) or HRP-3 (B) were used to detect both proteins in the hippocampus of an adult mouse. Comparison of the double immunfluorescence demonstrates the lack of expression of HRP-3 in cells covering the ventricel wall of the hippocampal region (C, arrow), whereas HDGF is clearly expressed in this cell type. In contrast, hippocampal neurons coexpress both family members, but whereas HDGF is found to a similar extent in all neurons of the hippocampal formation (A), neurons of the dentate gyrus show only weak expression of HRP-3 when compared to the rest of the hippocampus (B). Higher magnification of this region demonstrates the existence of cells predominantly expressing HRP-3 (D, arrowheads) as well as a cell layer only positive for HDGF (D, arrows).

Effective dsRNA delivery and EGFP knock-down by electroporation. (A) Representative dark-field projections of the rendered z-stack of x-y confocal sections of blastocysts electroporated with AF594-labelled dsRNA (540 bp) after 24 h of culture. One hundred percent of the blastocysts incorporate the dsRNA and an average of 90% of the blastomeres in each embryo (minimum 70%) are targeted. Left, the ICM is viewed from the top; right, the ICM is viewed laterally. (B) Representative confocal bright-field images (top) and dark-field projections of the rendered z-stack of x-y sections (bottom) of HB2-EGFP embryos electroporated with GFP dsRNA and LacZ dsRNA (control) at the 8-cell and blastocyst stages, followed by 24 hours in culture (24 AE) and in utero development until the indicated stages (E4.3 and E5.5). The reduction of GFP fluorescence intensity following RNAi was similar among both the ICM cells (white arrowheads) and trophectoderm cells (red arrowhead). Likewise, despite the difference in fluorescence intensity between the epiblast cells and the surrounding extraembryonic tissues, GFP fluorescence was reduced to a similar degree in both tissues (white arrow and red arrow, respectively). (C) Average levels of fluorescence intensity of the main cell lineages of GFP dsRNA-electroporated blastocysts (24 h AE), and post-implantation embryos at the indicated stages, shown as a percentage of the intensity levels of control (LacZ dsRNA-treated) embryos. Bar colors as follows: cultured blastocysts (n = 9): brown, ICM; dark red, trophectoderm; E4.3 and E5.5 embryos (n = 8 and n = 7, respectively): blue, epiblast; light blue, visceral endoderm and extraembryonic ectoderm. Note that the reduction of fluorescence intensity among the different lineages at any given stage of development is very similar. Standard deviation bars are indicated.

Effective dsRNA delivery and EGFP knock-down by electroporation. (A) Representative dark-field projections of the rendered z-stack of x-y confocal sections of blastocysts electroporated with AF594-labelled dsRNA (540 bp) after 24 h of culture. One hundred percent of the blastocysts incorporate the dsRNA and an average of 90% of the blastomeres in each embryo (minimum 70%) are targeted. Left, the ICM is viewed from the top; right, the ICM is viewed laterally. (B) Representative confocal bright-field images (top) and dark-field projections of the rendered z-stack of x-y sections (bottom) of HB2-EGFP embryos electroporated with GFP dsRNA and LacZ dsRNA (control) at the 8-cell and blastocyst stages, followed by 24 hours in culture (24 AE) and in utero development until the indicated stages (E4.3 and E5.5). The reduction of GFP fluorescence intensity following RNAi was similar among both the ICM cells (white arrowheads) and trophectoderm cells (red arrowhead). Likewise, despite the difference in fluorescence intensity between the epiblast cells and the surrounding extraembryonic tissues, GFP fluorescence was reduced to a similar degree in both tissues (white arrow and red arrow, respectively). (C) Average levels of fluorescence intensity of the main cell lineages of GFP dsRNA-electroporated blastocysts (24 h AE), and post-implantation embryos at the indicated stages, shown as a percentage of the intensity levels of control (LacZ dsRNA-treated) embryos. Bar colors as follows: cultured blastocysts (n = 9): brown, ICM; dark red, trophectoderm; E4.3 and E5.5 embryos (n = 8 and n = 7, respectively): blue, epiblast; light blue, visceral endoderm and extraembryonic ectoderm.

What stands out most in this visual?
In vivo spin-echo images of spinal cord in (a) axial (b) coronal and (c) sagittal planes acquired on the day of coil implantation using the parameters TR/TE = 2500 ms/10 ms, image matrix = 128 × 256, slice thickness = 1 mm and NEX = 2, FOV = 45 mm × 45 mm for the axial, 35 mm × 85 mm for the coronal and 45 mm × 85 mm for the sagittal views. The intensities in the images were windowed and scaled to enhance the background signal. Notice that, during transmission, the volume coil generates an excitation field that leads to the hypointensity (long arrow) seen in the background. The implanted coil, indicated by IC on the images, generates 90° excitation field that produces a band of hyperintensity (short arrows) surrounding it. The square boxes are used to localize the regions where the images in Fig. 14 below were acquired.

Describe the main subject of this image.
RNAi Analysis of Selected Myoblast Genes(A and B) Live embryos expressing a tau-GFP fusion protein under control of the myosin heavy chain promoter and injected with an inactive control double-stranded lacZ RNA have a wild-type mature muscle pattern. Note, at high magnification (B), the complete absence of unfused myoblasts at this stage.(C and D) Injection of dsRNA for the known muscle fusion genes mbc (C) and blow (D) phenocopy mutations in these genes.(E and F) RNAi directed against the FCM gene CG13503 causes an overall reduction and disorganization of muscle fibers (E), with persistence of unfused myoblasts (arrowheads in F), consistent with a fusion defect.(G–K) Injection of dsRNA for the FC gene CG17492 results in the formation of multinucleate myospheres from only certain muscle fibers. A severely affected embryo (G) demonstrates the complete sparing of certain muscle groups, while other muscles appear as spheres (H) or as compact masses with thin extensions (arrowhead, I). While some abnormalities are apparent before any muscle contraction is visible (J), the same embryo observed later (K) shows that some muscles that had appeared morphologically normal have now formed myospheres (compare arrowheads in J and K).
