Alzheimer disease: amyloidogenesis, the presenilins and animal models. The concentration of miRNA-132 is also reduced in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease. Despite many years of intensive research our understanding of the molecular events leading to this pathology is far from complete. -, Bai Q., Burton E. A. Zebrafish possess genes orthologous to those mutated in familial Alzheimer's disease and research using zebrafish has revealed unique characteristics of these genes that have been difficult to observe in rodent models. Work in zebrafish has permitted discovery of unique characteristics of these genes that would have been difficult to observe with other models.

As the population ages, there is a growing need for effective therapies for the treatment of neurological diseases. COVID-19 is an emerging, rapidly evolving situation. Zebrafish start reproducing after only 3 months. Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbadis.2010.09.012. Biol. Zebrafish are being widely used as a predominant model for studying neurodegenerative diseases. The control group was maintained in the medium with 0.2% DMSO. Recently it has become apparent that these powerful methodologies might be deployed in order to elucidate the pathogenesis of human neurodegenerative diseases … -, Babin P. J., Thisse C., Durliat M., Andre M., Akimenko M. A., Thisse B. The main genes involved in human AD have homologous counterparts in zebrafish and have conserved function. However, there are still aspects of this model that require better understanding. No effective treatments have been defined and questions surround the validity and utility of existing animal models. 2007 Mar;1772(3):285-97. doi: 10.1016/j.bbadis.2006.12.001. The zebrafish is becoming an increasingly popular model for the investigation of Alzheimer's disease and will complement studies using other models to help complete our understanding of this disease. Please enable it to take advantage of the complete set of features! Zebrafish larvae were divided into several groups: control group, model group, model + DPZ group, model + compounds groups, each of which contained 30 larvae. In this current study, we have attempted to establish Aβ induced model of AD in Zebrafish. The zebrafish animal model is emerging as a valuable model for the investigation of AD and neurodegenerative drug discovery. (2011).

The zebrafish is rapidly emerging as an attractive model for AD research. The Diverse Roles of Phagocytes During Bacterial and Fungal Infections and Sterile Inflammation: Lessons From Zebrafish. Uncontrolled movements are typical in human patients with Parkinson’s. The molecular pathology of Alzheimer's disease is still poorly understood. Natl. Several AD models using zebrafish have been created but none of them are able to recreate both molecular and behavioral hallmarks of AD [2]. Generation of a transgenic zebrafish model of Tauopathy using a novel promoter element derived from the zebrafish eno2 gene. A., Hukriede N. A., Burton E. A. Zebrafish genes orthologous to those mutated in human familial Alzheimer's disease have been defined. Zebrafish have been used extensively in developmental biology and molecular genetics. Dev. They are an ideal model for drug testing prior to clinical testing in rodents. Persistent physiological stresses can induce abnormalities in heart functions such as cardiac hypertrophy (CH), which can lead to morbidity and mortality. In this review we give an overview of how the zebrafish has been used to study Alzheimer's disease. Both apolipoprotein E and A-I genes are present in a nonmammalian vertebrate and are highly expressed during embryonic development. Zebrafish is an elegant vertebrate employed to model the pathological etiologies of human maladies such as cardiac diseases.
