(A) Illustration of zebrafish highlighting the trunk region where intersegmental vessel (ISVs) develop between somites. The sprouting of ISVs results in an interconnected luminal pathway from dorsal aorta to the dorsal longitudinal anastomotic vessel. (B) Effect of cinnamon extract on zebrafish development. (C) Morphology of zebrafish as affected by exposure to cinnamon extract. Exposure time of cinnamon extract was 16 h. Age of zebrafish was 24 hpf when photographed. Treatments were done in triplicate, and experiment was conducted twice. The data represented are pooled from two experiments. Sample size n = 30. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01.
