RT-qPCR showing significant downregulation of crim1, clic4, and itgb1 and significant upregulation of serpinb1l2 and fgf1b. (A) RT-qPCR showing expression of crim1, clic4, and itgb1 in crim1−/− larvae compared to controls. RT-qPCR was performed on dissected eyes for all experiments from control (white columns; expression normalized to 1.0) and crim1−/− larvae (black columns) at 72 hpf. The results show significantly reduced expression of crim1 (P = 0.04), clic4 (P = 0.02), and itgb1 (P = 0.02) in crim1−/− larvae compared to controls. (B) RT-qPCR showing expression of serpinb1l2, fgf1b, and gpib in crim1−/− larvae compared to controls. The results show significantly increased expression of serpinb1l2 (P = 0.02) and fgf1b (P = 0.02) but not gpib (P = 0.25) in crim1−/− larvae compared to controls. (C) RT-qPCR showing expression of bzw1a and nampta in crim1−/− larvae compared to controls. The results do not show significantly reduced expression for bzw1a (P = 0.4) or nampta (P = 0.16) in crim1−/− larvae compared to controls.
