ROCK inhibition disturbs the localization of vasa and nanos mRNAs at the distal part of the cleavage furrow at 4-cells stage zebrafish embryos. nanos and vasa in situ hybridization localization in 4-cell stage embryos with the normal localization at the distal edge of the cleavage furrow (A, a1 and C, c1 respectively). h1152 Injected embryos showed abnormal localization of nanos (B and b1) and vasa (D and d1) at the center of the cleavage furrow. Quantification of normal localization of the mRNAs aggregates of nanos (E) or vasa (F), in embryos injected with control buffer or h1152. (E) Localization of nanos in control (n=160) and embryos injected with h1152 (n=209) showed statistical differences. (F) Localization of vasa in control (n=138) and h1152 treated embryos (n=131) also showed statistical differences from 4 independent experiments. The error bars represent the standard error of the mean (** p<0.01).
