santa negatively regulates vascular specific gene expression and endothelial cell morphology. (A–F) Bright-field micrographs of 60 hpf wild-type (A) and san^s234 mutant (B) larvae. Black arrow in panel B points to enlarged heart and pericardial cavity. Endothelial cells visualized by in situ hybridization with tie2 in 60 hpf wild-type (C), and san^s234 mutant (D) larvae, shown in ventral view of the heart region. Black bracket in panel D demarcates the expansion of tie2 expression in this region. Micrographs of cmlc2 (E) and tie2 (F) expression in 60 hpf san mutant larvae. The enlarged heart in san^s234 mutant larvae shows an apparent increase of tie2 positive cells (black arrow in panel E and black bracket in panel F). (G–L) Epifluorescent micrographs of 36 hpf wild-type (G, I, and K) and san mutant (H, J, and L) Tg(tie2:GFP)^s849 embryos showing the aortic arches (G and H), trunk vessels (I and J), and heart (K and L). Note the elevated Tg(tie2:GFP)^s849 expression in san^s234 mutant embryos (white arrows). (M–P) Epifluorescent micrographs of 60 hpf wild-type (M and O) and san^s234 mutant (N and P) Tg(flk1:EGFP)^s843 larvae showing the subintestinal vessel (M and N) and posterior trunk (O and P). Vessels in san^s234 mutant larvae (white brackets) appear dilated compared to those in wild-type siblings. Abbreviations: BA: bulbus arteriosus, V: ventricle, A: atrium.
