Relative to a normal baby fish (A), the absence of the ELABELA hormone causes embryos to develop with no heart (red arrow) and a truncated tail (B,C).

presents insights into mRNA regulation during embryonic development. The study combines single-cell RNA-Seq and metabolic labeling in zebrafish – lovely, striped aquarium fish that are ...

The embryo of a wild type zebrafish above the embryo of banp mutant zebrafish, both four days post fertilization (dpf). The mutant embryo has smaller eyes compared to the wild type (shown with the ...

The Core can generate zebrafish with mutations in specific genes and engineer transgenic fish to monitor expression of genes of interest, mark cell type populations, proliferation and differentiation ...

This study provides a valuable new resource to investigate the molecular basis of the particular features characterizing the pipefish embryo. The authors found both unique and shared gene expression ...

Michael Barresi’s research interests are focused on how glial cells help wire the nervous system in the embryonic zebrafish brain. His lab discovered that astroglial cells provide a substrate for ...

The effects of antidepressant exposure during early development can pass down through three generations of offspring—at least in zebrafish. A new study ... and blunt stress responses in an exposed ...

A new study from USC Stem Cell scientists reveals how certain animals, such as zebrafish and lizards, can regenerate their hearing by reactivating dormant gene regulators. The discovery provides ...
