Regionalized Protein Localization Domains in the Zebrafish Hair Cell Kinocilium
Journal of Developmental Biology, 2023 Sensory hair cells are the receptors for auditory, vestibular, and lateral line sensory organs in vertebrates. These cells are distinguished by “hair”-like projections from their apical surface collectively known as the hair bundle.

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2021 The sensory organs of the inner ear contain resident populations of macrophages, which are recruited to sites of cellular injury. Such macrophages are known to phagocytose the debris of dying cells but the full role of macrophages in otic pathology is ...

New information on Brindabellaspis stensioi Young, 1980, highlights morphological disparity in Early Devonian placoderms [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2018 Acid-prepared specimens of the placoderm Brindabellaspis stensioi (Early Devonian of New South Wales, Australia) revealed placoderm endocranial anatomy in unprecedented detail.

The lateral line microcosmos [PDF]
Genes & Development, 2007 The lateral-line system is a simple sensory system comprising a number of discrete sense organs, the neuromasts, distributed over the body of fish and amphibians in species-specific patterns. Its development involves fundamental biological processes such as long-range cell migration, planar cell polarity, regeneration, and post-embryonic remodeling ...

Physiological responses of mechanosensory systems in the head of larval zebrafish (Danio rerio)
Frontiers in Robotics and AI, 2023 The lateral line system of zebrafish consists of the anterior lateral line, with neuromasts distributed on the head, and the posterior lateral line, with neuromasts distributed on the trunk.

Hydrodynamic model of fish orientation in a channel flow
eLife, 2022 For over a century, scientists have sought to understand how fish orient against an incoming flow, even without visual and flow cues. Here, we elucidate a potential hydrodynamic mechanism of rheotaxis through the study of the bidirectional coupling ...

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 In the zebrafish lateral line system, interneuromast cells (INCs) between neuromasts are kept quiescent by underlying Schwann cells (SWCs). Upon severe injuries that cause the complete loss of an entire neuromast, INCs can occasionally differentiate into

Evaluating the Death and Recovery of Lateral Line Hair Cells Following Repeated Neomycin Treatments
Life, 2021 Acute chemical ablation of lateral line hair cells is an important tool to understand lateral line-mediated behaviors in free-swimming fish larvae and adults.

Royal Society Open Science, 2023 Domestication and captive breeding can compromise the obstacle- and predator-avoidance capabilities of animals in the wild. Whereas previous studies only examined these effects in combination, here we examine them individually by comparing the abilities ...

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2020 Hearing loss is the third most common chronic health condition in the United States and largely results from damage to sensory hair cells. Major causes of hair cell damage include aging, noise exposure, and medications such as aminoglycoside antibiotics.
