Zebrafish macrophages and neutrophils express lymphatic growth factors. (A) RT-PCR of vegfaa, vegfc, vegfd, csf1ra, mpx, cdx1b, and ef1-a from RNA isolated from untreated and TNBS-treated 7dpf zebrafish macrophage-lineage cells. (B) qPCR analysis of vegfc mRNA in TNBS-treated 7dpf zebrafish macrophages relative to untreated 7dpf zebrafish macrophages (n=3). (C) RT-PCR of vegfaa, vegfc, vegfd, csf1ra, mpx, cdx1b, and ef1-a from RNA isolated from untreated and TNBS-treated 7dpf zebrafish neutrophils. The colours in the gel images are inverted and the numbers in brackets indicate reproducibility over three experiments. Error bars, ±s.d. n.s. P>0.05 by unpaired t-test.
