Around 15 years ago, a group of researchers discovered mutant zebrafish. The eyes of these zebrafish did not develop correctly, resulting in them being significantly smaller than the eyes of wild ...

Philadelphia, September 20, 2023 – Zebrafish have revolutionized research into a wide variety of rare and complex genetic diseases. In early development stages, their transparent bodies allow ...

Researchers have showcased the central role of a specific protein for stopping cell death and regulating the cell cycle. Around 15 years ago, a group of researchers discovered mutant zebrafish. The ...

As a vertebrate model organism, zebrafish has many unique advantages in developmental studies, regenerative biology, and disease modeling. However, tissue-specific gene knockout in zebrafish is ...

The embryo of a wild type zebrafish above the embryo of banp mutant zebrafish, both four days post fertilization (dpf). The mutant embryo has smaller eyes compared to the wild type (shown with the red ...

The 2025 NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championship came to a close on Saturday with Georgia securing the women’s national title. Sixteen... Friday’s rendition of the NCAA Track and Field National ...

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 ...

Despite swimming in different worlds, fish and humans are biologically much closer than one might think. Capitalizing on this kinship, researchers have now used zebrafish embryos to come up with a ...

Researchers from Brain Research Institute, Niigata University, Japan have revealed that environment influences social behaviors in autism. By using zebrafish that have a mutation in ube3a, a gene ...

A new study delves into the evolutionary conservation of emotional contagion and the role oxytocin plays in empathy. Researchers from the Instituto Gulbenkian de Ciência (Oeiras, Portugal) have ...
