Metformin cannot rescue the cystic phenotype in tsc1a morphants. Tg(wt1b:GFP) tsc1a morphants were immersed in embryo media (E3) containing 2.5 to 20 mM metformin until 48 hpf. (A) Representative images indicating prominent cystic pronephros (arrows) in Tg(wt1b:GFP) tsc1a morphants. Metformin does not affect the formation and severity of pronephric cysts. The upper panels show fluorescence images (dorsal view, anterior to the top). The lower panels show overlays of fluorescence (green) and transmission (grey) images of the upper panels. Scale bar, 100 µm. (B) Comparison of the cystic phenotype in different treatment groups. Data represent two independent experiments (n = 28–46 per group). ***P < 0.001, n.s. = not significant.
