NUZ-001 and its active metabolite NUZ-001 Sulfone demonstrated significant neuroprotective effects in a zebrafish model of Huntington's disease Treatment prevented hallmark developmental and ...

Nager syndrome (NS) is an extremely rare disease that causes developmental problems and anomalies in facial bone structures and limbs. While the causative gene is known, its underlying mechanisms ...

Zebrafish have emerged as a vital vertebrate model system that bridges developmental biology and behavioural neuroscience. Their genetic tractability, optical transparency during early development and ...

The zebrafish (Danio rerio) is an essential model organism in biomedical research, favored due to its genetic similarity to humans and cost-effective maintenance. With approximately 75% of its genome ...

Nager syndrome, or NS, is a rare genetic disease that affects the development of the face and limbs, usually causing anomalies in the bone structures of the jaws, cheeks, and hands. With a prevalence ...

Given that the developmental processes of zebrafish facial structure is similar to human, they can be leveraged as a low-cost and readily available animal model for exploring the underlying molecular ...
