The effect of vivo-MO-induced knockdown of c-c motif chemokine 4, eotaxin-like, and sod4 on the regeneration of the amputated Xenopus laevis tadpole tail. A Schema of experiments. Tail stumps were successively injected at 0, 1 and 2 dpa with either control vivo-MO or with vivo-MO to mRNA of each of the aforementioned three genes. The level of amputation is shown by red line. B–E Typical samples of tails of Xenopus laevis tadpoles injected with the indicated vivo-MO at 4th day after amputation. The level of amputation is shown by red line. F Percent distribution of three types of the regenerating tails of Xenopus laevis tadpoles (normal regeneration, partial and no regeneration) among the 4 dpa tails injected with the control vivo-MO and vivo-MOs to c-c motif chemokine 4, eotaxin-like, and sod4 mRNA. Common scale bar for B–E of 300 microns is shown in B
