Notch-independent Her6 contributes to control of neural stem cell maintenance by shifting Notch signaling from lateral inhibition towards lateral induction mode

The paper shows Her6, a Notch-independent factor, shifts Notch signaling from lateral inhibition to lateral induction, aiding neural stem cell maintenance in zebrafish.

Parameters for stable Notch-independent Her6 oscillations across a frequency spectrum in neural stem cell populations

The paper identifies parameters for stable Her6 oscillations in zebrafish neural stem cells, showing they require equal transcript and protein degradation rates.

A genetic model for development, physiology and behavior of zebrafish larvae devoid of catecholamines

This paper describes a zebrafish model lacking catecholamines, showing viability with normal anatomy but impaired physiological and behavioral functions.

The Second Mitochondrial Activator of Caspases (SMAC) regulates growth, inflammation and mitochondrial integrity in cancer cells

This study identifies SMAC as a regulator of cancer cell growth, inflammation, and mitochondrial integrity, showing its role in both apoptotic and non-apoptotic contexts.

Analysis of lhx8a, isl1, pax6a/b, calb2a and sst7 Reveals that Dopaminergic Neurons in the Zebrafish Subpallium Belong to the Extended Amygdala

The paper identifies subpallial dopaminergic neurons in zebrafish as part of the extended amygdala through developmental expression patterns of specific markers.

Neurog1 and Olig2 integrate patterning and neurogenesis signals in development of zebrafish dopaminergic and glutamatergic dual transmitter neurons

The paper shows Neurog1 and Olig2 integrate patterning and neurogenesis signals to specify A11-type dopaminergic neurons in zebrafish.

A network of Notch-dependent and -independent her genes controls neural stem and progenitor cells in the zebrafish thalamic proliferation zone

The paper identifies Notch-dependent and -independent her genes in zebrafish thalamic proliferation zones, showing their roles in NSC maintenance and progenitor transition.
