2006). To characterize the male-biased and female-biased families of zebrafish, the significant differences in sex ratio among the different families in the control group were analyzed using the ...

This month's cover highlights the article Nup358 restricts ER-mitochondria connectivity by modulating mTORC2/Akt/GSK3β signalling by Joseph, Misha Kalarikkal and colleagues. The image shows a human ...

Aluminum is widely distributed in the environment and enters the body via air, water, food, medications, and manmade objects. Some studies suggest that aluminum toxicity increases the rate of lipid ...

Testicular cancer is when unusual cells grow out of control in the tissue of one or both of your testicles. Also called testes, these are the two oval-shaped organs that hang from the base of a ma ...

Zebrafish (Danio rerio) is a small freshwater fish that is an extensively studied vertebrate model organism. It can be bred rapidly in large numbers, is amenable to genetics, and has a clear ...

As a vertebrate, the zebrafish possesses many genes that perform the same or similar functions in mammals and therefore also in humans. Approximately 70 percent of zebrafish genes are also present in ...

Zebrafish are unassuming and undemanding. Almost every child knows that – at least any child that has kept fish in an aquarium. Since the beginning of the 20th century, these fish have been one of the ...

Zebrafish are a model system optimized for this problem, because of the large number of existing cell-type-specific drivers that can label nearly any cell in the TME. These include stromal cells, ...

Examples of the animals are roundworms (Caenorhabditis elegans), fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster), zebrafish (Danio rerio), rodents (Mus musculus and Rattus norvegicus), and non-human primates ...

As an optically transparent model organism with an endothelial blood-brain barrier (BBB), zebrafish offer a powerful tool to study the vertebrate BBB. However, the precise developmental profile of ...
