Dietary protein absorption in neonatal mammals and fishes relies on the function of a specialized and conserved population of highly absorptive lysosome rich enterocytes (LREs). The gut microbiome has ...
Zebrafish are a powerful model system to study human development and disease. Zebrafish have several advantages: ability to rapidly generate targeted mutations; external fertilization and development ...

The brain is a marvel of efficiency, honed by thousands of years of evolution so it can adapt and thrive in a rapidly changing world. Yet, despite decades of research, the mystery of how the brain ac ...
Researchers from Japan employed genetically engineered zebrafish and found that the mutation in the gene that causes NS, suppresses the Fgf8 levels. This, in turn, affects the expression pattern ...
The zebrafish is one such commonly used animal model. This is because many genetic disorders that affect mammals affect zebrafish in virtually the same way, allowing scientists to shed light into ...
