Abstract Neural crest cells are a transient cell population that emerges from the dorsal neural tube during neurulation and migrates extensively throughout the embryo. Among their diverse derivatives, glial cells (such as Schwann and satellite ganglionic cells) and melanocytes represent two major lineages. In vitro studies suggested they share a common

Neuroprotective effects of erythropoietin on rat retinas subjected to oligemia
OBJECTIVES: Erythropoietin may have neuroprotective potential after ischemia of the central nervous system. Here, we conducted a study to characterize the protective effects of erythropoietin on retinal ganglion cells and gliotic reactions in an ...

Abstract Background The promoters and enhancers of heat shock genes, such as the 1.5‐kb promoter of the zebrafish hsp70l gene, are valuable tools for temporal activation of transgenes. It has been widely purported that heat shock treatments result in ubiquitous expression of hsp70l‐driven transgenes.

Role of SoxE transcription factors in development and disease
Abstract Sox8, Sox9, and Sox10 arose by multiple rounds of genome duplications from a single SoxE gene in ancestral vertebrates. In this review, we will briefly discuss the molecular structure and function of SoxE transcription factors and their evolutionary origin. We will then discuss their expression, function, and developmental disorders.

Zebrafish inversin mutants develop scoliosis in the absence of laterality defects
Abstract Background Human mutations in INVERSIN are associated with nephronophthisis, variable penetrance of situs inversus and congenital heart disease. Inversin has been shown to localize to cilia and many of the patient phenotypes are attributed to disrupted cilia function.

Zebrafish ventral gastrula fate map reveals neural crest progenitor domain
Abstract Background Fate maps relate progenitor cell positions to later fates and locations of their progeny, revealing early embryonic organization. Previous zebrafish fate maps identified the origin of germ layers and derivative cell fates, but ventral gastrula progenitor domains were not fully resolved. In particular, the neural crest, a multipotent

ABSTRACT Background Automated vertical cup‐to‐disc ratio (VCDR) measurements are commonly used in optic nerve assessment, but measurements may vary across optical coherence tomography (OCT) platforms, particularly in eyes with atypical optic nerve anatomy such as optic nerve head drusen (ONHD).

ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping ophthalmology from task‐specific image analysis toward multimodal, longitudinal, and clinically integrated decision support. This narrative review summarizes the methodological evolution of ophthalmic AI, including traditional machine learning, task‐specific deep learning, self‐supervised learning ...

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.
