Eating behaviour regulation in Zebrafish (Danio rerio): a comparative analysis

open access: yes, 2014
The structure, function, and tissue specific expression profiles of neuropeptides involved in regulating eating behaviour are well researched in mammals, the corresponding literature on fish homologs however is scarce. The work presented here endeavoured

Nephronectin regulates atrioventricular canal differentiation via Bmp4-Has2 signaling in zebrafish

open access: yes, 2011
The extracellular matrix is crucial for organogenesis. It is a complex and dynamic component that regulates cell behavior by modulating the activity, bioavailability and presentation of growth factors to cell surface receptors.

Protective Role of Comfrey Leave Extracts on UV-induced Zebrafish Fin Damage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In zebrafish, UV exposure leads to fin malformation phenotypes including fin reduction or absence. The present study evaluated UV-protective activities of comfrey leaves extracts in a zebrafish model by recording fin morphological changes ...

Nephronectin regulates cardiac valve development via BMP4-HAS2 signaling in zebrafish

open access: yes, 2011
It has been estimated that about 1% of live births carry severe congenital heart defects and 20-30% among them have valve malformations. Despite its medical importance the underlying cause of many valvular diseases remains undiscovered.

Microbial polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) for human health: A comprehensive review of evidence from in vivo preclinical models

open access: yesDiscover Applied Sciences
Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), including C18 PUFAs (linoleic [LA] and α-linolenic [ALA] acids) and their longer-chain derivatives (LC-PUFAs such as arachidonic [AA], eicosapentaenoic [EPA], and docosahexaenoic [DHA] acids), are essential nutrients ...

The Visual Systems of Zebrafish

open access: yesAnnual Review of Neuroscience
The zebrafish visual system has become a paradigmatic preparation for behavioral and systems neuroscience. Around 40 types of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) serve as matched filters for stimulus features, including light, optic flow, prey, and objects on a collision course.

tBid‐Mediated Genetic Ablation of Connective Tissue Cells Reveals Their Key Regulatory Function During Limb Regeneration in Axolotls

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We establish a tBid‐mediated cell ablation system in axolotls, achieve rapid and efficient ablation of multiple cell types, including muscle stem cell, spinal cord cell, and connective tissue (CT) cells. We investigate the role of CT using tBid‐mediated CT ablation and identify its essential role for limb development and regeneration.
