Scientists headed by a team at the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub San Francisco (CZ Biohub SF) reported on the development of Zebrahub, a dynamic, state-of-the-art atlas of zebrafish embryonic development.
The research team first used network toxicology and molecular docking to predict nicotine’s most likely neurotoxic targets, identifying six core proteins. They then exposed zebrafish larvae—a model ...
When early cartographers undertook perilous expeditions to map unknown corners of the world with sextants, compasses, and hand-drawn diagrams, it’s unlikely they imagined that someday anyone with an ...
Blinding diseases lead to permanent vision loss by damaging photoreceptor cells, which humans cannot naturally regenerate. While researchers are working on new methods to replace or regenerate these ...
Professor Bruce Draper uses zebrafish as a model to study development. Work from his lab in the UC Davis College of Biological Sciences shows how certain genes are linked to sex change in fish and ...
Researchers studying zebrafish have found that genes linked to autism spectrum disorder and other developmental brain abnormalities may be playing a role in people who cannot control their eye ...
As people age, muscles naturally lose mass and strength, a condition known as sarcopenia. The decline can make everyday ...
