Fig. 1. Experimental setup for isolating garland or pericardial nephrocytes from adult flies.

Fig. 1

A handC-GFP expressing female flies were immobilised, ventral side up, and either garland (GNCs) or pericardial nephrocytes (PNCs) were isolated using a CellTram equipped with a thin glass capillary. Semi-intact specimen before collagenase treatment with GFP-labelled pericardial cells (B, one nucleus per cell) or garland cells (C, two nuclei per cell). (B’, B”, C’, C”) After collagenase treatment. The dissociated nephrocytes are isolated and collected. Scale bars: 100 µm.
