Understanding Positional Information During Zebrafish Fin Regeneration
<p>Regeneration is a remarkable feat that can only be accomplished by a small number of animals. The regeneration of vertebrate limbs is one such case as certain salamanders and fish regenerate robustly while mammalian ability to regenerate is extremely limited. Successful regeneration requires not …

Wnt signaling in zebrafish fin regeneration : chemical biology using a GSK3β inhibitor
… a zebrafish model system to study Wnt activated fin regeneration and bone growth. Wnt signaling is the first genetically identified step in fin regeneration, and bony rays are the main structure in zebrafish fins. Thus, zebrafish fin regeneration may be a useful model to study Wnt signaling …

The roles of FGF and Wnt signaling during maxillary barbel regeneration in the Zebrafish (Danio rerio).
… about the molecular mechanisms that control this regeneration. Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) and wingless (Wnt) signaling are required for the control of zebrafish caudal fin regeneration; due to the similarities between the fin and the maxillary barbel, these regulatory networks may play a role …

Characterizing Tissue-Specific actinodin1 Reporter Expression in Danio rerio Fins Throughout Development and Regeneration
The exoskeleton of the fins comprises fin rays and actinotrichia; the latter are small unmineralized fibrils found at the distal margin of fin rays. Actinotrichia play a role in the growth and structure of the fins during fin development and regeneration. Our lab has previously identified the …

ELUCIDATING THE ROLE OF MIR-10A/B IN THE WOUND HEALING PROCESS IN LARVAL ZEBRAFISH
… microRNA-10 (miR-10) in larval zebrafish caudal fin regeneration, a model with broad implications for the future of regenerative medicine. Building on prior research from the lab, which indicated that miR-10 knockdown impairs regeneration, we verified this finding through rescue experiments, …

Discovering bioactive compounds for bone growth: the osteogenicity of marine organism-derived extracts
… bone growth in juveniles and the other caudal fin regeneration in adults. The operculum system was particularly effective, showing a large number of extracts to significantly increase the degree of bone growth relative to control. Of those extracts tested, red algae were particularly active, …

Towards an understanding of synthetic glucocorticoid hazards in aquatic systems.
… of cross-species susceptibility, and define mechanisms associated with apical outcomes following exposure in aquatic matrices. First, I performed a critical review of existing literature to characterize the global occurrence of synthetic glucocorticoids in freshwater matrices detected by …
