Podocin-Green Fluorescence Protein Allows Visualization and Functional Analysis of Podocytes
12 May 2011
Abstract excerpt
Podocytes do not remain fully differentiated when cultured, and they are difficult to image in vivo, making the study of podocyte biology challenging. Zebrafish embryos are transparent and develop a single, midline, pronephric glomerulus accessible for imaging and systematic functional analysis. Here, we describe a transgenic zebrafish line that expresses green fluorescence protein (GFP) from the zebrafish...
