LPS response and tolerance in the zebrafish (Danio rerio).
Zebrafish (Danio rerio) has been used in the present work to study the fish response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) exposure and LPS tolerance. These mechanisms are not completely understood in mammals and, presently, are totally unknown in fish. Zebrafish larval survival was assessed following treatment with various types of LPS at a variety of concentrations to determine the sensitivit...
متن کاملDanio Rerio, the Zebrafish
The zebrafish has long been a favourite model for the study of vertebrate development. Here we provide an overview of the current state of knowledge and resources for the study of this fish, with comments on the future direction of zebrafish genomics from Professor Mark Fishman and Dr Stephen Wilson.
متن کاملAnalyzing Cold Tolerance Mechanism in Transgenic Zebrafish (Danio rerio)
Low temperatures may cause severe growth inhibition and mortality in fish. In order to understand the mechanism of cold tolerance, a transgenic zebrafish Tg (smyd1:m3ck) model was established to study the effect of energy homeostasis during cold stress. The muscle-specific promoter Smyd1 was used to express the carp muscle form III of creatine kinase (M3-CK), which maintained enzymatic activity...
متن کاملWavelength dependence of the optomotor response in zebrafish (Danio rerio)
The action spectrum of motion detection in zebrafish (Danio rerio) was measured using the optomotor response in the light adapted state. The function has a single maximum at 550-600 nm, and is similar to the spectral sensitivity function of the L-cone type in the mid and long wavelength range. At shorter wavelengths the values of three of the five fish tested are lower. As in goldfish [Vis. Res...
متن کاملBIOLOGY OF ZEBRAFISH, Danio rerio
Zebrafish, Danio rerio (Hamilton), is one of the most important vertebrate model organism in genetics, developmental biology, neurophysiology and biomedicine (Rubinstein, 2003; Amsterdam and Hopkins, 2006). It is a small, robust fish, so large numbers can be kept easily and cheaply in the laboratory, where it breeds all year round. Development is rapid, with precursors to all major organs devel...
