Modeling GATAD1-Associated Dilated Cardiomyopathy in Adult Zebrafish
Animal models have played a critical role in validating human dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) genes, particularly those that implicate novel mechanisms for heart failure. However, the disease phenotype may be delayed due to age-dependent penetrance. For this reason, we generated an adult zebrafish model, which is a simpler vertebrate model with higher throughput than rodents. Specifically, we stud...
متن کاملComputerized image analysis for quantitative neuronal phenotyping in zebrafish.
An integrated microscope image analysis pipeline is developed for automatic analysis and quantification of phenotypes in zebrafish with altered expression of Alzheimer's disease (AD)-linked genes. We hypothesize that a slight impairment of neuronal integrity in a large number of zebrafish carrying the mutant genotype can be detected through the computerized image analysis method. Key functional...
متن کاملBehavioral phenotyping in zebrafish: comparison of three behavioral quantification methods.
The zebrafish has been popular in developmental biology and genetics, but its brain function has rarely been studied. High-throughput screening of mutation or drug-induced changes in brain function requires simple and automatable behavioral tests. This article compares three behavioral quantification methods in four simple behavioral paradigms that test a range of characteristics of adult zebra...
متن کاملHigh-Throughput Craniofacial Development Phenotyping in Zebrafish using VAST BioImager
Zebrafish is an emerging vertebrate model organism to study human diseases and toxicology [1]. A variety of genetic tools in zebrafish allow in vivo modeling of human genetic diseases and regeneration [2]. Zebrafish larvae also have small size and optical clarity which allows easy microscopic evaluation of physiological changes and morphological phenotypes. Conventional imaging approaches invol...
متن کاملGavaging adult zebrafish.
The zebrafish has become an important in vivo model in biomedical research. Effective methods must be developed and utilized to deliver compounds or agents in solutions for scientific research. Current methods for administering compounds orally to adult zebrafish are inaccurate due to variability in voluntary consumption by the fish. A gavage procedure was developed to deliver precise quantitie...
