Scientists discover zebrafish hair cells can regenerate without cell division, challenging decades of textbook biology and hinting at future hearing treatments.

Zebrafish have sensory structures called neuromasts ... The study illustrates this gene-switching in detail, using labeled cell populations and fluorescent markers to track regeneration. Dr. David ...

Discover how the new technique of HSMP can help scientists gain insights into the world of biological processes and their implications for health.

Thus the multiple fluorescent reporter-based methodology facilitates the rapid analysis of digestive organ function in live zebrafish larvae.

Through dynamic monitoring of zinc levels in Alzheimer’s disease model cells and zebrafish, the researchers confirmed a positive correlation between zinc levels and Alzheimer's disease markers ...

Zebrafish have become a powerful model of mammalian lipoprotein metabolism and lipid cell biology. Most key proteins involved in lipid metabolism, including cholesteryl ester transfer protein, are ...

Within a day, some of the zebrafish larvae began to glow, indicating that the electric eel's pulses had indeed caused the fluorescent gene to be transferred into the zebrafish larvae.

Sean Burgess (right) and Bruce Draper, professors in the UC Davis College of Biological Sciences, are using zebrafish to detect chemicals that may cause reproductive harm. The GloNad fish glow red or ...

Taking advantage of the existence of transgenic fluorescent zebrafish lines, we were able to track the migration of different innate immune cells, mainly neutrophils, to the site of infection with NNV ...

Transgenic zebrafish, or zebra danio (Danio rerio), have been bioengineered into a patented and ... More trademarked brand of genetically modified (GM) fluorescent fish and marketed as “GloFish ...

Now that fluorescent pets have been generated in farms for sale in pet stores, some animals have managed to make an escape. Genetically-modified zebrafish that glow red and green have been found in ...

To help answer these questions, Ranawat and Masai attached fluorescent labels that can be seen under a microscope to microglia in the embryos of zebrafish. Developing zebrafish are transparent, making ...
