The Itga8–Pcdh15a complex regulates endocytosis/recycling in hair cells. (A–F,H–M) Confocal images of 3 dpf (A–F,H–J) and 5 dpf (K–M) larvae (labeled as in Fig. 1) incubated with FM1-43 for 30 min. Scale bars: 5.5 µm. (G,N) Quantification of total fluorescent intensity per neuromast. At least five independent experiments were performed for each treatment and total fluorescence intensity expressed as a percentage of that in control (mean±s.e.m.). (O) Cartoon of a neuromast (top view) showing the stained structures: hair cells loaded with FM1-43 are in red, and the hair cell bundle in green. **P<0.01; ***P<0.001; ns, not significant (one-way ANOVA followed by Dunnett's multiple comparisons test or two-tailed Student's t-test). |
