Animal Models of Tuberculosis: Zebrafish [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2014
Over the past decade the zebrafish (Danio rerio) has become an attractive new vertebrate model organism for studying mycobacterial pathogenesis. The combination of medium-throughput screening and real-time in vivo visualization has allowed new ways to dissect host pathogenic interaction in a vertebrate host. Furthermore, genetic screens on the host and
