The expression of cathepsin L and CTSB-like during zebrafish embryogenesis. Wild-type embryos were analyzed with whole-mount in situhybridization (WISH) at the indicated stages with antisense riboprobes against cathepsin L ( A) and CSTB-like ( B) for mRNA distribution. ( A) No appreciable signal for cathepsin L was observed in embryos before 8 hpf. Signals were significant in 12 hpf embryos at anterior prechordal plate (app) and subsequently in hatching gland (hg) at later stages. Signals were also abundant in the head region and swim bladder (sb) of 4-dpf larvae, which can be observed more clearly in a post-WISH cross-section at the trunk region (dash line and black arrow in inset). ( B) Intensive expression and homogenous distribution of CSTB-like transcripts were observed in embryos before 4 hpf. Signals became focused anteriorly in 1 dpf embryos and gradually diminished, as development proceeded, but nonetheless persistent in the trunk region along the vessels. Significant distribution appeared in the heart and the uninflated swim bladder area of 4 dpf larvae and became enriched in the region surrounding swim bladder at 5 dpf. app, anterior prechordal plate; h, heart; hg, hatching gland; sb, swim bladder.

RyR-mediated muscle contractions are required for slow fiber maturation. (A-I) Slow fibers were visualized with F59 antibody at 20 and 24 hpf and with the slow fiber-specific S58 antibody at 48 hpf. Slow fibers, which are initially wavy, mature and align with respect to each other as wild-type embryos develop. In ryr1b mutant embryos, maturation is delayed; in paralyzed triple mutants, fiber maturation is arrested. (J) Sample image indicating how slow muscle fiber (yellow) and A-P somite (magenta) lengths were determined using ImageJ. (K) Sample image of sarcomere banding indicating how sarcomere A-P lengths (white bracket) were determined. (L) Quantification of slow fiber:somite length ratios. (M) Quantification of sarcomere lengths of slow muscle fibers. One-way ANOVA was used to determine statistical relationships at each developmental time point with Tukey's multiple comparisons test used to adjust P-values. To determine fiber length or sarcomere length, five fibers were examined in each of five different embryos for each condition. ns, not significant.
