Fig. 3. Deficiency of SCARB1 does not alter fluorescently-labeled lipoprotein uptake in the caudal vein, total plasma cholesterol, and stress-induced cortisol levels in zebrafish (A) Uptake of DiO-HDL (24 h post injection)(green), Bodipy-LDL and DiO-oxLDL (30-60 min post injection)(green) by macrophages (purple) in WT and scarb1^−/− zebrafish larvae. Magnification 40× (B) Free serum cholesterol (FC) (C) total serum cholesterol levels (TC) and (D) FC/TC ratio of WT sibling (n_WT = 11 pooled samples of 2) and homozygous scarb1^−/− zebrafish (n_-1nt = 5 and n_+2nt = 6 pooled samples of 2) measured with enzymatic colorimetric assay. (E) Cortisol levels of WT (n_WT = 6 pooled samples of 30) and scarb1^−/− zebrafish larvae (n_-1nt = 6 pooled samples of 30, n_+2nt = 6 pooled samples of 30) at baseline and after net stress.
