The pericardium forms as a distinct structure during heart formation

This study identifies the pericardium's origin from anterior mesothelial progenitors in zebrafish, distinct from the heart field, and links pericardial stiffness to pediatric cardiomyopathies.

Heterogeneity and genomic loci of ubiquitous Cre reporter transgenes in zebrafish

The paper compares zebrafish Switch reporter transgenes to identify those with optimal recombination efficiency and expression patterns for lineage labeling.

Inducible expression of human C9ORF72 36x G4C2 hexanucleotide repeats is sufficient to cause RAN translation and rapid muscular atrophy in mice

This paper introduces a new inducible mouse model expressing C9ORF72 G4C2 repeats that causes RAN translation and muscular atrophy, showing that early intervention can prevent but not reverse the phenotype.
