An uninjured (left) and injured adult zebrafish heart with neural crest cells labeled magenta. Note the neural crest cells activated around the edge of the injury in preparation for regenerating the ...

A cross-department collaboration headed by researchers at Harvard Medical School and Harvard University has witnessed the moment at which cells in the zebrafish embryo heart start beating in unison ...

Artistic representation of heart regeneration: Hmga1 in green symbolically flows from the border zone of a zebrafish heart (top right) to the injured border zone of a mouse heart (left). Red ...

Just in time for Heart Month, the laboratory of University de Montréal medical professor and CHU Sainte-Justine researcher Rubén Marín‑Juez has unveiled the first comprehensive atlas of coronary ...

Unlike humans, zebrafish can completely regenerate their hearts after injury. They owe this ability to the interaction between their nervous and immune systems, as researchers led by Suphansa ...

Can the heart physiology of zebrafish help treat human heart conditions? This is what a recent study published in Biology Open hopes to address as a team of researchers from the University of Utah ...

This rare glimpse into the beating heart of a zebrafish offers a view of how blood flows into and out of its heart. Zebrafish have a heart and a circulatory system similar to that of humans, but with ...

Researchers have published an atlas of zebrafish development, detailing the gene expression programs that are activated within nearly every cell type during the first five days of development, a ...

Specifically, the researchers wanted to understand how a large group of cells works together to orchestrate a complex, tissue-wide activity like the first heartbeat. “The way most people have thought ...
