Figure S3. CV2 Knockdown Affects D-V Patterning in the Mesoderm and the Endoderm. (A-B) Embryos stained with the blood island marker Scl (Stem cell leukemia). CV2 depletion increases staining in the blood island indicating an increase in BMP signaling. (C-D) In situ hybridization using the endodermal marker Cad2. CV2 depletion severely affects endoderm formation. Note that the ventral fin (vf) is decreased in size. Image published in: Ambrosio AL et al. (2008) Copyright © 2008.
