Normalized power Doppler volume is increased in expanding PLN but not in collapsed PLN. by Echoe M. Bouta (456220)

“…The NPDV data are graphed to illustrate two methods that can be used to phenotype expanding vs. collapsed PLN. The first is by a strict threshold (black line, 0.025). The second is to phenotype based on percentiles; PLN falling above the 25% percentile (green line, 0.0298) are expanding, while PLN that fall below the 75% percentile are collapsed (red line, 0.01596) (n<u>></u>5; *p<0.05 by Kruskal-Wallis ANVOA with Dunn's post test).…”

PntP1 is maintained by Tll in type II NBs. by Rui Chen (95310)

“…<p>Type II NB lineages are labeled with mCD8-GFP/RFP driven by <i>pntP1-GAL4</i> and counterstained with anti-Ase, anti-Dpn, and/or anti-PntP1 antibodies. White arrows point to type II NBs. Scale bars equal 10μm. (A-B’”) Wild type type II NB lineages have no Ase expression in the NBs and have higher expression levels of mCD8-GFP driven by <i>pntP1-GAL4</i> (A-A’”), whereas knockdown of Tll in type II NBs leads to ectopic Ase expression in type II NBs and a decrease in mCD8-GFP expression by 75% (B-B’”). mCD8-GFP intensity in the wild type type II NBs is normalized as 1 (A and A’”). …”
