Histology of 8-month-old gr ^−/− and gr ^+/+ zebrafish. All histological images of 8-month-old gr ^−/− and gr ^+/+ zebrafish were taken from longitudinal sections stained with haematoxylin and eosin (H&E). The left panels represent wild type fish, whereas the middle and right panels show tissues from two mutant fish. (A) heart; (B) particular of the heart at higher magnification showing reduced trabecular network in the mutant samples; (C) intestinal mucosa with sloughing epithelium at the villous tips and reduced height of villi in mutants; (D) visceral view showing reduced extension of pancreas in mutants; (E) consistent increase of subcutaneous adipose tissue in mutants. ba = bulbus arteriosus; v = ventricle; a = adipose tissue; i = intestine; p = pancreas; t = trabeculae.

gr ^s357/s357 and gr ^−/− 5-dpf zebrafish larvae in transgenic Tg(9xGCRE-HSV.Ul23:EGFP) background cannot respond to DEX treatment. (A) Fluorescence microscopy images of gr ^+/+, gr ^s357/s357 and gr ^−/− 5-dpf zebrafish larvae in transgenic Tg(9xGCRE-HSV.Ul23:EGFP)ia20 background. Treated larvae were subjected to 10 μM DEX treatment for 24 h (from 4 dpf to 5 dpf). (B) Integrated density analysis of fluorescence of 5-dpf zebrafish larvae of the three genotypes with or without DEX treatment. Homozygous zebrafish mutants deriving from heterozygous or homozygous parents were analysed separately. Values represent the mean ± SEM. Asterisks indicate that expression levels are significantly different from the control (two-way-ANOVA, *P < 0.05, ***P < 0.001). n = 15 larvae for each group. (C) qRT-PCR analysis of fkbp5, foxo3b and mmp-9 in gr ^+/+, gr ^s357/s357 and gr ^−/− 5-dpf zebrafish larvae deriving from homozygous parents with or without DEX treatment. Values represent the mean ± SEM. Different letters indicate statistically significant differences checked by two-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple-comparison test. fkbp5 (P < 0.01); foxo3b and mmp-9 (P < 0.001). Data were generated from four biological replicates.

(A): qRT-PCR of gr mRNA in 5-dpf mutant larvae compared to control shows a statistically significant reduction of gr expression. Values represent the mean ± SEM. Asterisks indicate that expression levels are significantly different from the control: ***P < 0.001. Data were generated from four biological replicates. (B): Representative images of 5-dpf control gr^+/+ and mutant gr^-/- larvae after exposure to VBA stimulus. gr^-/- mutants appear darker in comparison to control. (C): Representative gel image of PCR genotyping using genomic DNA from tail fins of adults born from a cross between gr heterozygotes. (D): Western blot of liver proteins from 8-month-old gr^-/- and gr^+/+ zebrafish showing disappearance of the protein band with respect to control.

(A) Histological analysis of two samples of each genotype, gr^+/+, gr^s357/s357 and gr^-/- zebrafish, at 45 dpf of age. All histological images were taken from longitudinal sections stained with haematoxylin and eosin (H&E). Panels compare tissues and structures in the three different genotypes. Top 3 panels present a total body section of one sample of each genotype. Middle 9 panels present details of the gonads, head kidneys and pharyngeal teeth. Bottom 3 panels show a longitudinal section of the heart showing the reduced trabecular network of the gr^-/- heart ventricle.

(B) Histological analysis of two samples of each genotype, gr^+/+, gr^s357/s357 and gr^-/- zebrafish, at 45 dpf of age. All histological images were taken from longitudinal sections stained with haematoxylin and eosin (H&E). Top 3 panels present sections of esophageal sacs and proximal intestine. Middle 6 panels present details of the intestine showing the presence of a thinner epithelium in gr^-/- samples. Bottom 6 panels show details of the endocrine and exocrine pancreas.

(C) Histological analysis of two samples of each genotype, gr^+/+, gr^s357/s357 and gr^-/- zebrafish, at 45 dpf of age. All histological images were taken from longitudinal sections stained with haematoxylin and eosin (H&E). Top 3 panels present sections of spinal cord and vertebral column together with the kidney. Middle 3 panels present details of pseudobranch and gills. Bottom 3 panels show sections of the liver.

Longitudinal sections stained with haematoxylin and eosin (H&E) of four gr^-/- and two gr^+/+ to better visualize the adipose tissue increase in mutants.

(A): Whole-mounts of the posterior intestinal region of control, DSSexposed and DSS plus DEX-exposed larvae of the three genotypes analysed after staining with alcian blue. (B): Comparison of alcian blue-stained mucous granules in the intestine of the above larvae. n = 15 larvae for each group. Values represent the mean ± SEM. Different letters indicate statistically significant differences checked by two-way ANOVA followed by Fisher’s post hoc test (p<0.05).
