From: Hcfc1a regulates neural precursor proliferation and asxl1 expression in the developing brain
The hcfc1aco60/+ allele regulates brain development and asxl1 expression. a Quantitative real time PCR (QPCR) analyzing the relative expression of mmachc in wildtype siblings (Sibling) and hcfc1aco60/+ larvae (Co60/+). N = 16 larvae per group with 3 biological replicates. b, b′ Whole mount in situ hybridization (ISH) was performed at 2 days post fertilization (DPF) using a riboprobe targeting asxl1 mRNA. ISH was performed with sense control (b) and anti-sense specific probe (b′). Purple demonstrates positive staining in the developing brain. N = 20. c QPCR analyzing the relative expression of asxl1 in wildtype siblings (Sibling) and the hcfc1aco60/+ allele. N = 16 larvae per group with 3 biological replicates. #p < 0.05. dhcfc1aco60/+ larvae (Co60/+) and their wildtype siblings (Sibling) were injected with translation inhibiting morpholinos targeting asxl1 (asxl1 MO) or random control (RC) morpholinos. At 2 DPF larvae were pulsed and stained for EdU incorporation and the number of EdU positive cells was counted per brain section. The total number of cells in the forebrain (FB), midbrain (MB), and hindbrain (HB) was calculated. *p = 0.000127, **p = 0.000407, ***p = 0.00712. N = 6/group
