Figure Caption
Fig. 4 BODIPY-FL C2 does not participate appreciably in lipid metabolism. A. Unlike the longer chain length analogs, BODIPY-FL C2 fluorescence appears primarily in the intestinal lumen of larvae. B. In the liver BODIPY-FL C2 accumulates in the hepatic ducts (arrow) and diffusely in hepatocytes, whose nuclei are discernable (empty arrowhead). C. The ductal network of the exocrine pancreas is also labeled (arrow). The gall bladder (filled arrowhead) is indicated in C. A. is a composite of 2 separate confocal images. Scale bars = 10μm. (n = 3; 6 larvae per feed).
