Aran Nayebi(opens in new window) jokes that his robot vacuum has a bigger brain than his two cats. But while the vacuum can only follow a preset path, Zoe and Shira leap, play and investigate the ...

Abstract: Extracellular matrix (ECM) plays pivotal roles in developments, wound healing, migration, angiogenesis, and other tissue developments. Developing new ECM may give us an innovative approach ...

A research team from the University of Cologne has shown how zebrafish can rebuild their nerve pathways and restore their locomotor function after a spinal cord injury. Specialized connective tissue ...

Zebrafish can regenerate sensory hair cells that humans permanently lose, like those in the inner ear linked to hearing and balance. New research reveals two specific genes that control how different ...

Despite the clear major contribution of hyperlipidemia to the prevalence of cardiovascular disease in the developed world, the direct effects of lipoproteins on endothelial cells have remained obscure ...

Vascular development in different organs is precisely controlled, yet how this process is orchestrated remains to be elucidated. Previously, we found that dysfunction of DEAD-box RNA helicase 24 ...

Researchers have found that larval zebrafish quickly learn to identify predators and find easy ways to avoid them. Larval zebrafish learn such things robustly just five days after beginning their ...

Rationale: Wiring vascular and neural networks are known to share common molecular signaling pathways. Activation of transient receptor potential type C channels (TRPCs) has recently been shown to ...

When asked to describe the Center for Zebrafish Research (CZR), professor David Hyde, the memorial director of the research center, called it a “giant pet store.” The CZR, a 3,000 square-foot facility ...
