Fig. 7. Effect of serotonin agonists and antagonists upon LR Cai2+ levels. Fura-2-loaded HH6 embryos were treated with serotoneric agents and imaged ventrally. The upper panel shows a representative Fura-2 image; the lower panel is the line-scan quantitation of fluorescent intensity versus left-right axis for that embryo, at the position indicated by the yellow line in the upper panel. (A) Untreated embryo. (B) The serotonin reuptake inhibitor fluoxetine reduced LR Cai2+. (C) The 5-HT3 receptor agonist 2-methyl-5-HT reduced LR Cai2+. (D) The 5-HT3 receptor antagonist ondansetron elevated right-side Cai2+. (E) The 5-HT4 receptor agonist ML10302 reduced LR Cai2+. (F) The 5-HT4 receptor antagonist GR125487 elevated right-sided Cai2+. Asterisk indicates Hensen's node; right (R) and left (L) are as indicated in A.
