Fig. 3: Hemocyte recruitment when apoptosis is blocked.
From: Epithelial cell competition is promoted by signaling from immune cells
A–F Control and Myc clones were generated and hemocytes visualized as in Fig. 2F, G, 72 h ACI. In (C, F) clones were generated as in (B, E), but cell death was blocked using a copy of hid allele (hid1) (C) or arm-Gal4 driving p35 (F). (A’–F’) Discs in (A–F) were stained with DAPI. Scale bar = 50 µm. Quantification of the number of hemocytes in discs of the genotypes in A–C (G) or D–F (I). (H, J) Quantification of the area ratio between twin clones (dark/bright) in discs of the genotypes in A–C (H) or D–F (J). **P < 0.01; ****P < 0.0001, by two-sided Mann-Whitney U test. P value = 6.65 × 10−3, 1.78 × 10−3, 1.25 × 10−6, 1.65 × 10−5, 1.23 × 10−3, 2.91 × 10−3, 3.51 × 10−7, and 1.41 × 10−6, respectively. n = 22, 13, 15, 20, 16, and 16 discs for the genotypes in (A), (B), (C), (D), (E), and (F), respectively. In each box and whisker plot, the box represents the interquartile, spanning from the first quartile to the third quartile, with a white line inside marking the median, and the whiskers show the range of the data, reaching the minimum and maximum values.
