150 million years of freshwater fish biogeography: vicariance or dispersal? [PDF]
Research & Knowledge, 2017 Freshwater fishes are supposedly good case studies to test palaeobiogeographical models because they are attached to land masses, at least primary freshwater fishes, which are unable to cross marine barriers.

Confocal Characterization of Intestinal Dendritic Cells from Myxines to Teleosts
Biology, 2022 Dendritic cells (DCs) are antigen-presenting cells (APCs) that regulate the beginning of adaptive immune responses. The mechanisms of tolerance to antigens moving through the digestive tract are known to be regulated by intestinal DCs.

Intestinal microbiome richness of coral reef damselfishes (Actinopterygii: Pomacentridae)
Integrative Organismal Biology, 2022 Abstract Fish gastro-intestinal system harbours diverse microbiomes that affect the host’s digestion, nutrition and immunity. Despite the great taxonomic diversity of fish, little is understood about fish microbiome and the factors that determine its structure and composition.
