Apoptotic NCCs appear in the arches of vgll2a morphants but not in uninjected embryos at 24 hpf. Single-plane, confocal images showing the pharyngeal arches of a representative uninjected sox10:egfp embryo (A) and a sox10:egfp embryo injected with 5 ng vgll2a MO and 2 ng p53 MO (B) and stained with an anti-active caspase 3 antibody in lateral views. Apoptotic, anti-active caspase 3-postitive NCCs (arrow), were only observed in the arches of vgll2a morphants at 24 hpf. Arches are numbered 1–4. Anterior is to the left in both panels.
