Detection of apoptosis in HSF1 KO XX medaka. (AH) Apoptosis with TUNEL staining (green) and nuclear DAPI staining (blue) in gonadal regions of WT XX (A,E), HT-treated WT XX (B,F), HSF1 KO XX (C,G), and HT-treated HSF1 KO XX (D,H) fry. White dot, gonadal regions; white arrow, apoptosis in gonadal regions. Scale bar, 30 μm. n = 4. (I) Rate of apoptotic germ cells (TUNEL-positive germ cells over total germ cells). (J) Rate of apoptotic gonadal somatic cells (TUNEL-positive gonadal somatic cells over total gonadal somatic cells). (K,L) Number of germ cells (K) or gonadal somatic cells (L) of WT (+/+) and KO (−/−) fry at 0 dph. **p < 0.01.
