Figure 11. Comparative analysis of vascularization across fenestrated central nervous system (CNS) vascular beds reveals crucial angiogenic interplay of Vegfc/d and Vegfa in choroid plexus (CP) and circumventricular organ (CVO) vascularization.

(A) Schematic diagram of a mid-sagittal section of the larval zebrafish brain indicates the location of the CPs and CVOs examined in our current and previous studies. MO: medulla oblongata, OB: olfactory bulb, OTc: optic tectum, Teg: tegmentum, Tel: telencephalon, Th: thalamus. (B) Summary of findings from our comparative analysis of fenestrated vessel formation. Angiogenic contributions were speculated based on the severity and penetrance of observed phenotypes and also on the levels of genetic interactions detected to cause phenotypes. This comparative result reveals CNS region-specific requirements for Vegfs-dependent angiogenesis and identifies an unexpected role for Vegfc/d in fenestrated brain vessel formation.
