Fig 6. BM structure is disrupted in the col4a6 mutant hindbrain.

Fig 6

Dorsal hindbrain of 5 dpf wild-type (A, B) and col4a6 mutant (C-F) larvae was analyzed by electron microscopy. Cross sections (A, C). (B, D) Higher-magnification views of box B in A and box D in C. (E, F) Higher-magnification images of boxes E and F in D. The BM is indicated by yellow arrowheads. Axons containing synaptic vesicles are marked by blue dashed circles. The BM was branched (E) or truncated (F) in the col4a6 mutant hindbrain. N, nucleus. Scale bars: 10 μm in A; 2 μm in B; 10 μm in C; 2 μm in D; 0.5 μm in E; 0.5 μm in F.
