Ethanol induces pharyngeal hypoplasia in pdgfra mutants. (A-C) Flat-mounted jaw and jaw support elements, anterior towards the left. Untreated (A) wild-type, (B) pdgfra+/- and (C) pdgfra-/- embryos have normally shaped cartilages. (D,E) Treatment with 1.0% ethanol from 10 hpf to 5 dpf does not affect the overall shape of cartilages in (D) wild-type or (E) pdgfra heterozygous embryos. (F) Ethanol treatment greatly disrupts the shape of the palatoquadrate and hyosymplectic cartilages in pdgfra mutants. (G-I) Quantification of the average area, in thousands of μm2 of (G) Meckel’s (mc), (H) palatoquadrate (pq) and (I) hyosymplectic (hs) cartilages (standard error bars are depicted at 1.5 s.e.m., significance is indicated by non-overlapping bars; Moses, 1987). Wild type, light bar; pdgfra heterozygote, light-gray bar; pdgfra mutants, dark-gray bar. ch, ceratohyal. Group numbers are the same as for Fig. 1. |
