Abstract:
The objective of the current study was to investigate the correlation of cytosolic calcium levels and myofibril alignments during zebrafish embryogenesis. We exposed 2‐aminoethoxydiphenyl borate and caffeine to zebrafish embryos to disturb the cytosolic calcium levels. Our data show that (1) both enhanced and reduced of cytosolic calcium led to mis‐alignment of myofibrils; (2) reduction of cytosolic calcium increases myod expression; and (3) electron density is affected by intracellular calcium reduction. In conclusion, we proposed that cytosolic calcium is important for myofibrils alignment.
