Figure 7

TEM characterizes glial cells and axon ultrastructure within the larval zebrafish midgut. TEM reveals ultrastructure of myenteric plexus neuropil of the midgut in (A,B′) 7 dpf and (C,D′) 18 dpf larvae. Magenta-dashed box corresponds to region of magnification (A′–D′). Intestinal epithelium (IE), nucleus (N), muscularis (M), endothelial cell (EC), type 1 glial (T1G) and type 2 glia (T2G). Scale bars denote the following: (A) 500 nm, (A′) 250 nm, (B) 500 nm, (B′) 250 nm, (C) 500 nm, (C′) 250 nm, (D) 500 nm, (D′) 250 nm. Yellow arrows in (A′,B′) and white arrows in (C′) point to electron dense junctions between T1G and T2G.
