Basal cell carcinomas, the most common form of skin cancer, occur in chronically sun-exposed areas such as the face. Locally advanced tumors in particular can be difficult to treat surgically.

Evolutionary biologists and neuroscience researchers have teamed up to explore a new approach to recreating the brain structure of extinct and living birds by making digital 'endocasts' from the ...

Professor Sun Yonghua (front) shows zebrafish disease models to members of his research team in the laboratory at the China Zebrafish Resource Center in Wuhan, Hubei province. CHINA DAILY The ...

Motor neurons in the different cranial motor nuclei extend axons, forming the cranial nerves, to innervate muscles and parasympathetic ganglia in ... chick studies (as zebrafish studies have ...

The Neuroscience Institute at the University of Sheffield brings together leading experts in medicine, science and engineering to better understand the nervous system and tackle the biggest challenges ...

Zebrafish are widely studied and relatively easy to culture using commercial systems. However, a challenging aspect of maintaining aquatic facilities is animal feeding, which is both time- and ...

several cerebral nuclei in the zebrafish brain including the basal ganglia, striatum, hippocampus and amygdala have high homogeneity to mammals (Randlett et al., 2015). The laminated cortex is not ...

Here, we established a new experimental system to directly investigate EEC activity in vivo using a zebrafish reporter of EEC calcium signaling. Our results reveal that high fat feeding alters EEC ...

Here, we suggest that the PPTg may also act as an interface device between the basal ganglia and cerebellum. As such, part of the therapeutic effect of PPTg deep brain stimulation (DBS) to relieve ...
