Calcium imaging of immotile cilia and crown cells of Inversin mutant embryo in the presence of BMP4 during manipulation of cilia using optical tweezer
Description
Calcium imaging of immotile cilia and crown cells of iv/iv mouse embryo in the presence of BMP4 during manipulation of cilia using optical tweezer. GCaMP6 was expressed in the cytoplasm for cytoplasmic calcium imaging. Immotile cilia at the node were visualized based on mCherry expression. From T=96 to T=908 of imaging, the immotile cilia was bent to the ventral side using optical tweezer. From T=1012 to T=1825 of imaging, the immotile cilia was bent to the dorsal side using the tweezer.
