Cold-blooded animals such as the zebrafish, by contrast, cannot do any of these, so they have a different strategy. They look for places nearby that are at their "comfortable temperature," just ...

To dig even further into the mechanisms that drive over-eating, Wee’s team has sequenced the RNA of the hypothalamic neuron clusters in zebrafish that she previously described 2. They have found ...

In zebrafish, ketamine causes changes a brain circuit involved in "giving up." That may help explain how the drug helps people with depression.

and Johns Hopkins found where ketamine acts in the zebrafish brain: at supporting cells called astroglia, rather than neurons. The work is published in the journal Neuron. Previous research by ...

The aim of this project is to determine if we can use zebrafish to study motor neuron biology and degeneration. Zebrafish afford many advantages over mice in terms of their amenability to live imaging ...

Zebrafish protein unlocks dormant genes for heart repair Date: January 2, 2025 Source: Hubrecht Institute Summary: Researchers have successfully repaired damaged mouse hearts using a protein from ...

To help answer these questions, researchers are turning to an unlikely animal: tiny, days-old zebrafish. The millimeters-long, translucent zebrafish may not get depressed exactly like humans do ...

However, the path to successful glia-to-neuron conversion is complex ... In contrast to mammals, zebrafish exhibit remarkable regenerative capabilities in their retinas. Studies have shown ...

Learn more about Benchling. An integral part of the Orengo lab is integrating a cross species approach towards understanding motor neuron biology and disease: Human, Mouse and Zebrafish. The following ...

A mathematician has shed light on the mystery of how zebrafish develop their distinctive stripes. Cardiff University's Thomas Woolley simulated how a zebrafish's skin cells "chase each other ...
