How cardiac cell fates are specified during heart development remains elusive. This study identifies a level-dependent role ...

Previous studies have shown that protein expression of DOCK7 is increased in skeletal muscle biopsies from patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), leading researchers from the University of ...

In contrast to mammals, zebrafish (Danio rerio) exhibits a markedly enhanced neuroregenerative capacity, which can be attributed to the phenomenon of adult neurogenesis and to the distinctive ...

Creating zebrafish cone mosaic-defective mutants DSCAM (Down Syndrome Cell Adhesion Molecule) is a protein that helps nerve cells connect properly during development. It was first found in humans on ...

Oncogene permanent activation in a single targeted cell of zebrafish together with a reprogramming factor transient activation is sufficient to induce the malignant transformation of the cell and ...

"We found that the cone mosaic pattern, especially the red cone arrangement, is disrupted in zebrafish Dscamb mutants." In the early stage of photoreceptor differentiation in zebrafish, cone ...

As zebrafish allow real-time visualization of lens development, genetic manipulation of both the endogenous Crystallin genes as well as the use of transgenic overexpression of identified pathogenic ...
