Shikonin Inhibits Fin Regeneration in Zebrafish Larvae
Shikonin is a naphthoquinone compound extracted from Chinese comfrey for treating cancer. However, there are few reports on its research on vertebrate tissue regeneration. Zebrafish is an ideal model for studying organ regeneration.

Multilayer Perceptron Network Discriminates Larval Zebrafish Genotype using Behaviour [PDF]
Zebrafish are a common model organism used to identify new disease therapeutics. High-throughput drug screens can be performed on larval zebrafish in multi-well plates by observing changes in behaviour following a treatment. Analysis of this behaviour can be difficult, however, due to the high dimensionality of the data obtained.

In vivo imaging of embryonic vascular development using transgenic zebrafish.
In this study we describe a model system that allows continuous in vivo observation of the vertebrate embryonic vasculature. We find that the zebrafish fli1 promoter is able to drive expression of enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) in all blood ...

A Zebrafish Model of Mycobacterium leprae Granulomatous Infection. [PDF]
Understanding the pathogenesis of leprosy granulomas has been hindered by a paucity of tractable experimental animal models. Mycobacterium leprae, which causes leprosy, grows optimally at approximately 30°C, so we sought to model granulomatous disease in

The overall architecture and cell types are highly conserved from mammals to teleost fish. The rapid transparent ex utero development in zebrafish allows direct access and precise visualization of all the major events in cerebellar development. The superficial position of the cerebellar primoridum and cerebellum further facilitates in vivo imaging of ...

Live-imaging of astrocyte morphogenesis and function in zebrafish neural circuits
How astrocytes grow and integrate into neural circuits remains poorly defined. Zebrafish are well suited for such investigations, but bona fide astrocytes have not been described in this system.

BE4max and AncBE4max Are Efficient in Germline Conversion of C:G to T:A Base Pairs in Zebrafish
The ease of use and robustness of genome editing by CRISPR/Cas9 has led to successful use of gene knockout zebrafish for disease modeling. However, it still remains a challenge to precisely edit the zebrafish genome to create single-nucleotide ...

Intraocular inflammation following mycobacterial dissemination to the eye is common in tuberculosis (TB)-endemic countries. However, the early host–pathogen interactions during ocular dissemination are unknown.

A hybrid mathematical model for self-organizing cell migration in the zebrafish lateral line [PDF]
In this paper we propose a "discrete in continuous" mathematical model for the morphogenesis of the posterior lateral line system in zebrafishes. Our model follows closely the results obtained in recent biological experiments. We rely on a hybrid description: discrete for the cellular level and continuous for the molecular level. We prove the existence

A Novel Long-term, Multi-Channel and Non-invasive Electrophysiology Platform for Zebrafish. [PDF]
Zebrafish are a popular vertebrate model for human neurological disorders and drug discovery. Although fecundity, breeding convenience, genetic homology and optical transparency have been key advantages, laborious and invasive procedures are required for
