(c) At 2 dpf, melanocytes are visible and migrating ventrally. Embryos with ablated vSMCs or treated with vehicle have delayed and weaker constriction. 1A). There was no response to vehicle (E3) (P=0.416, n=29 from 8 embryos). Progression of spatial preference and orienting behavior by age. Since these qualities persist throughout development into the period of visual system functionality, retinotectal development and function has been studied in great detail in zebrafish [25,26]. These results indicate that social behavior as measured by our dyad assay parameters develop rapidly. S3B) but not in response to vehicle (P=0.161, n=22 from 13 embryos). Other studies found that, although pericytes are contractile and capable of modulating cerebral blood flow (CBF), they do not play a major role in the process of neurovascular coupling (Fernandez-Klett et al., 2010). Using live imaging and genetic ablation experiments, we show that pericyte-covered brain capillaries constrict at earlier stages in development, while vSMC-covered arteries develop this ability later. 1. PMID: 10581014 Statistical analyses were performed in Python or SPSS version 24. FIG. Mtz-treated fish had normal morphology and normal vessel structure after mural cell ablation (Fig. pdgfrb transgene expression can be seen as early as the eight-somite stage in the neural crest, and marks cerebral pericytes by 48 hpf. L is an overlay of J and K. Scale bars: 10 μm in C-F,I-L. Data are mean±s.d. Here, we test the constriction and dilation ability of cerebral vessels covered by different vascular mural cells during development. Interestingly, we observed a refinement of the stereotyped 45°–90° orienting behavior we previously described in adults over this timescale.15 Although the preferred angle is consistently within this window, variability decreases over time (Fig. Submission deadline: 30 March 2021 During development, these cells are known to arise from columnar neuroepithelium precursor cells and undergo a maturation process to become compartmentalised10. S5M-P) at 2 min (P=0.012) and remain constricted. Most pericyte-covered vessels constrict, but some dilate, and a subset does not respond to PE (Fig. There was no dilation in the vehicle control group (P=0.211, n=32 from 6 embryos). At 4 dpf, vSMC-covered pre-constricted vessels dilate in response to SNP (P=0.0009, n=22 from 12 embryos; Fig. Vector strength was calculated from these data based on 45° relative to the divider. Zebrafish rapidly acquire complex social behaviors between 10 and 16 dpf. S5Q). 4H). It is intriguing that at 4 and 6 dpf, vSMC-covered vessels can only dilate from a pre-constricted state, suggesting that vSMC-covered vessels in the zebrafish embryo are close to maximal dilation during normal development. 1C). At 6 dpf, pericyte processes are in close proximity and appear to contact one another (Fig. Engeszer RE, Patterson LB, Rao AA, Parichy DM, Zebrafish in the wild: a review of natural history and new notes from the field, Zebrafish Behavior: opportunities and challenges, Suriyampola PS, Shelton DS, Shukla R, Roy T, Bhat A, Martins EP. Thus, by 6 dpf, vSMCs have developed active vasomotor ability to both contract and relax. Publication: mid-2021, The Immune System in Development and Regeneration Embryos were imaged prior to drug addition (0 min), followed by 3 min of exposure to PE (10 μM) and then to 4 min of exposure to SNAP (100 μM). vSMCs appear on only a few brain vessels and form a continuous sheet around the vessel (Fig. Another possibility is that as mural cell numbers are increasing between 4 and 6 dpf, there may be newly differentiating mural cells that have vasomotor activity, but do not express high enough levels of the driver to undergo ablation. Behavioral-developmental timeline. In the adult mouse model, there is no consensus on pericyte vasoactivity and corresponding changes in blood flow regulation. Sample sizes for each age are the following: 10d: 16, 12d: 86, 14d: 126, 16d: 50, and 30d: 36. dpf, days postfertilization. 2011). ABxTU strain zebrafish were maintained in standard conditions as described in the Zebrafish Book, on a 14 h light cycle.20 Unless otherwise noted, zebrafish were introduced to food at 4 dpf and fed rotifers three times daily. 2D). The expression of acta2:Gal4 is mosaic, as not every cell is labelled in this construct when we compare it with acta2:GFP (Fig. 4). 4A-F; Table S9). Black bar indicates latency from time 0 to peak. Considerable behavioral variability is observed at these early stages. We provide several lines of evidence to show that pericyte-covered vessels actively regulate their diameter. In this study, we investigated the roles of the eCB system in zebrafish development by pharmacologically inhibiting CB1R and CB2R (with AM251 and AM630, respectively) … Reproduction. development of the embryo of the zebrafish, Danio (Brachydanio) rerio. The spatial relationship between pericytes and astrocyte endfeet in early development is unknown, but close proximity is crucial for these cells to send and receive prostaglandin signals in the neurovascular unit. 4). (D-F‴) Enlargements of vessels in C, highlighting contact between processes of different pericytes. Find out more and view our full list of participating institutions. Our findings in developing zebrafish embryos reveal key similarities to and differences from data generated in the adult mouse brain model. However, at 6 dpf, SNP is ineffective at dilating pre-constricted vessels (P=0.003, n=11 from 9 embryos; Fig. This highly variable and early stage in development represents an opportunity to further understand how genetic and environmental factors affect the assembly of the neural circuits underlying complex behaviors. By Terrasigillata [CC BY-SA 3.0], via Wikimedia Commons. Furthermore, although we show that both pericyte- and vSMCs-covered vessels can respond to exogenous vasoactive agents, the sources and developmental ontogeny of endogenous vasoactive signals remain unknown. All vasoactive agents were dissolved in E3 fish medium. When we ablated vSMCs, no constriction in response to NA (P≤0.233, n=12 from 10 embryos) was seen but there was a 7% constriction in the vehicle-treated vSMC-ablated group (P=0.003, n=24 from 18 embryos). We do not capture any email address. In cultured pericytes, activation of endothelin 1 (ET-1) receptors in pericytes increases calcium, resulting in the alignment of F-actin and intermediate filaments and contraction (Dehouck et al., 1997). For the first time, we determine the dynamic developmental acquisition of vasoactivity in vivo in the cerebral vasculature of zebrafish. Pericytes contract in response to endothelial-derived vasoactive agents (Matsugi et al., 1997) but do not express the same contractile machinery as vSMCs. 1. One limitation of our study is that ablation resulted in later and smaller magnitude changes relative to when pericytes or vSMCs are present, but did not completely eliminate activity. Imaging was carried out using a Zeiss LSM 700 or Zeiss LSM 880 in Airyscan super-resolution mode confocal microscopes. The atlas of zebrafish development aims to provide a reference at the gross anatomical level for the zebrafish, identifying the major anatomical structures in samples covering the range of development from the early embryo until adulthood. 2B and Fig. We measured a number of distinct parameters of social behavior in zebrafish between 10 and 30 dpf, which encompasses stages before the flexion (or dorsal bending) of the notochord through to the juvenile stage (Fig. All rights reserved, USA and worldwide. Enter your email address below and we will send you your username, If the address matches an existing account you will receive an email with instructions to retrieve your username. SNP was used to test vSMC-covered vessel dilation, from a pre-constricted state, with similar results. We investigated the role of nutrition, a major factor known to influence larval development. NOTE: We only request your email address so that the person you are recommending the page to knows that you wanted them to see it, and that it is not junk mail. Spatial preference plateaued by 12 dpf and remained constant through the juvenile stage (Fig. (A) Representative dyad traces and polar histograms of body orientation at each age assayed. A one-way analysis of variance was used to compare different ages with Tukey's B post hoc tests to correct for multiple comparisons. Embryos expressing pdgfrb:Gal4 driver expressed in pericytes (Ando et al., 2016) in combination with a transgenic reporter expressing the nitroreductase (NTR) gene fused to mCherry under the UAS promoter were exposed to metronidazole (Mtz) for 24 h. NTR converts Mtz into a cytotoxic metabolite, resulting in cell death without damage to nearby cells. We find that vasoactivity changes dynamically during development. (H-J‴) Enlargements of the vessels in G showing extensive vSMC coverage. The mechanism by which NO causes pericyte relaxation appears to be through prostaglandin I2 activity: a vasodilator (Burnette and White, 2006; Dodge et al., 1991). vSMCs cover the larger vessels that are ≥9.5 μm in diameter (Fig. However, about 70 percent of the genes in humans are also present in zebrafish, and many parts of the skeleton are similar between both species, making zebrafish much more suitable for … At 4 dpf, vSMC-covered vessels constrict within the first minute (P≤0.0001, n=16 from 15 embryos; Fig. Understanding when neurovascular coupling develops in an organism is crucial to understanding the role of cerebral vascular mural cells in regulating tone. (G-J) Enlargements of F. Scale bars: 10 µm. Significance was determined using a paired two-tailed t-test for A and a repeated measures one-way ANOVA for H-I (*P≤0.05, **P≤0.005, ***P≤0.0005). From these expression patterns, we can map out the temporal order of smooth muscle markers during the development of gut smooth muscle in zebrafish (Fig. Cerebral vessels with diameters of 6.5-9.5 μm are covered by a mix of pericytes and vSMCs. IV. Dotted lines represent chance values, as determined by the grand mean in the prestimulus period. This video will cover the basics of embryo collection and handling before describing current research methods that take advantage of zebrafish embryos. S6G,H; Table S4). Vessel diameters were measured at positions where there was an association of a mural cell with the endothelium. 16 Several groups have studied social ontogeny, or the developmental stages at which zebrafish begin to reliably engage in these behaviors. Both special issues welcome Review articles as well as Research articles, and will be widely promoted online and at key global conferences. Summary. To determine whether blood vessels constrict in response to stimuli during early development, we used α1-adrenoceptor agonists. S3A; Movie 4). There was no constriction with vehicle (P=0.416, n=29 from 8 embryos). Our data also suggest that unmanipulated vSMC-covered vessels are at near maximal diameter in early development. At 6 dpf, as expected, the average vessel diameter in the presence and absence of pericytes was not significantly different: 4.9±0.8 µm and 4.9±0.9 µm (Fig. If the address matches an existing account you will receive an email with instructions to reset your password. At 4 dpf, pericyte-covered vessels actively constrict and dilate. Nat Genet. Thus, using a second method, we demonstrate that pericyte- and vSMC-covered vessels have developed tone by 4 dpf, and 6 dpf, respectively. Heterogeneity in response was noted but, on average, pericyte-covered vessels do not consistently respond to PE at 6 dpf. S1C). Despite these limitations, our evidence strongly suggests that at 4 dpf, pericyte-covered vessels actively regulate their vessel diameter. Social cueing was quantified using time-lag cross-correlation in Python for a subset of zebrafish dyads where no frames were discarded due to detection errors in either fish. They constrict faster than they did at 4 dpf, responding within the first minute and constricting 8% for the duration of drug exposure (P≤0.0001, n=32 from 25 embryos; Figs S3B and S7G-M; Table S8). S6A-F; Movie 2; Table S3). S2). 4A; 25/33 vessels constrict). These factors make it difficult to clearly separate the contribution of mural cells to the regulation of vascular tone, potentially leading to contradictory conclusions regarding vasomotor activity (Fernandez-Klett et al., 2010; Hill et al., 2015). Submission deadline: 1 September 2021 is the recipient of a studentship from the Alberta Children's Hospital Research Institute. Zebrafish , a peer-reviewed scientific journal, recently devoted a special issue to the use of zebrafish in K-12 and undergraduate education . (I-M) An example of vSMC-covered vessel constriction to PE at 6 dpf. Zebrafish (Danio rerio) are small, freshwater fish commonly found in the tropics. For example, pericytes contract during ischemia and remain contracted even after reperfusion of the occluded artery (Yemisci et al., 2009). (C) Vector strength increases across time and plateaus at 14 dpf. 2018; The 100K genomes project is completed, sequencing 100,000 genomes from patients affected by a rare disease or cancer. This template features 24 icons depicting the development of the zebrafish, a common model organism. 2B,C-G; Movie 1; Table S1). Zebrafish development is well characterized and highly sim-ilar to other vertebrates including humans. (F) Spatial relationship between pericytes and astrocytes at 6 dpf. Thus, as is commonly carried out in the field, we pre-constricted vSMC-covered vessels using 10 µM PE and then exposed them to 100 µM of the nitric oxide donor SNAP (Fig. A, P, V and D refer to anterior, posterior, ventral and dorsal. These vSMC-ablated vessels constricted 5% in response to vehicle (P=0.0001, n=42 from 21 embryos). S1C-E‴). The response of vSMC-covered vessels to α1-adrenoceptor receptor agonists was tested next. In addition, we performed measurements of body length to understand if this morphological feature is predictive of individual sociality.18 Finally, we investigated the effect of early nutrition by comparing social ontogeny in zebrafish reared with different feeding practices.19. We next assessed vSMC-covered vessel dilation in response to SNP at 4 dpf, but found no activity (P≤0.992, n=42 from 23 embryos; Fig. At 4 dpf, vSMC-covered vessels constrict but are unable to dilate (P≤0.0001, n=15 from 11 embryos; Fig. Chronological age influences overall standard body length (as measured from the front of the face to the end of the tail, excluding fins; Fig. S4A-H′). Our understanding of pericyte relaxation is limited. (B) At 4 dpf, pericyte-covered vessels constrict in response to PE within 3 min (P=0.007, n=55 from 15 embryos). Similarly, there are often considerable chronological gaps between when these measurements are made—is social ontogeny a continuous process, or one that occurs very rapidly over developmental time? Their rapid, external development and transparency make them uniquely suited to visualization. Scale bars: 50 µm in C and G; 10 µm in D-F‴,H-J‴. 2A).

We measured the standard length as described by Parichy et al., from the tip of the nose to the most posterior end of the body, excluding the fins (Fig. (A) At 4 dpf, both pericyte and vSMC-covered vessels constrict, whereas only pericyte-covered vessels dilate. We report that zebrafish exhibit increasingly complex social behaviors between 10 and 16 dpf, including place preference, orienting, and social cueing. ; methodology, investigation, and data analysis were the responsibilities of S.J.S. Thus, constriction or dilation in one pericyte-covered vessel region might not significantly alter local blood flow, but the sum of constriction or dilation of many pericyte-covered vessels can have a substantial effect on blood flow. We thank Dr Thomas Richard Whitesell, Dr Suchit Ahuja, Charlene Watterston, Jasper Greysson-Wong, Dr Grant Gordon, Dr Bill Cole, and Dr Peng Huang and his laboratory for their insightful suggestions and helpful comments on this project. The vessel diameter was measured from the external diameter of the endothelium. When vSMCs are ablated, there is no constriction of the ≥9.5 µm vessels to PE (P≤ 0.314, n=10 from 9 embryos). The number of vessels measured and the number of embryos used for each experiment is indicated in the figure caption. Summary figure: developmental changes in mural cell ability to regulate cerebral vascular tone. S2). Activation of potassium channels by vasodilators such as NO reduces the activity of L-type voltage-operated calcium channels (VOCC) and calcium-activated chloride channels (ClCa) in pericytes (Sakagami et al., 2001). Approximate developmental stages of zebrafish, and the ages at which specific social behaviors are first detectable as described in this article. (C) Lateral image of cerebral vessel pericyte coverage at 6 dpf. 2020 Zebrafish larva, the stage of development from between three and thirty days post-fertilization, grow in length from approximately 3.5 to 8 millimeters. Thus, at 4 dpf, we conclude that the ability of vSMCs to constrict in response to NA is not fully developed. Correlation analyses were performed using linear regression. They are connected to endothelial cells via myoendothelial gap junctions, allowing for direct signals from one cell to the other (Borysova et al., 2018). The period of embryonic development includes pre-hatching stage and eleutheroembryo stage, i.e., the stage between hatching and onset of exogenous feeding 5,10]. By 6 dpf, the abundance of mural cells increases; there are more pericytes than vSMCs at both stages. Socially motivated place preference and orienting behavior of larval zebrafish was measured using a modified version of our dyad assay for juveniles and adults.15 Zebrafish are placed in isolated tanks (50 mm length × 20 mm width × 20 mm depth) separated by an opaque divider and allowed to habituate for 5 min, then the divider is removed and the animals are allowed to interact for an additional 5 min. We show physical contact between astrocytes and pericytes at 4 dpf, but given that neurovascular circuits are operational later in development, at 4 dpf it is likely that these contacts are still developing. 4I; Table S11). and P.W. At 4 dpf, pdgfrb-expressing pericytes have been present for about 2 days, while vSMCs are only starting to express acta2 and are therefore not fully differentiated. To determine changes in vessel diameter, the cerebral vasculature was imaged before dosing (0 min) and repeatedly every minute after PE treatment (1-5 min; Fig. The dotted line represents chance as determined by the grand mean in the prestimulus period (19.88%). We define seven broad peri- ods of embryogenesis-the zygote, cleavage, blas- tula, gastrula, segmentation, pharyngula, and hatching periods. At 4 dpf, pericytes are present on smaller cerebral capillaries with diameters ≤6.5 μm (Fig. This data support the observation that pericytes actively regulate vessel diameter at 4 dpf but not 6 dpf. It is important to remember that, although the vessels covered by pericytes are small, capillaries have the highest surface area of the cerebral vasculature and are the primary site of flow resistance (Gould et al., 2017). 300 cells) were injected into circulation via the duct of Cuvier.
