Deciphering Endoderm-derived Macrophage-like Metaphocytes in Zebrafish Gill and Intestine
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: In order to have a comprehensive understanding of endoderm derived mpeg1+ cells in zebrafish gill and intestine, we isolated endoderm-derived GFP+ cells and remaining DsRedx+ cells (hematopoiesis-derived macrophages) from the gill (sox17_gill_GFP, sox17_gill_DsRedx) and intestine (sox17_intestine_GFP, sox17_intestine_DsRedx) of 4-OHT treated Tg(sox17:CreERT2;mpeg1:loxP-DsRedx-loxP-GFP) fish and performed RNA-seq. Both T-SNE analysis and feature gene comparison indicate that the endoderm-derived mpeg1+ cells in the gill and intestine are highly similar to the metaphocytes in the epidermis. We hence also refer to these endoderm-derived mpeg1+ cells as metaphocytes.
