The paper investigates the evolution of the Kazald gene family in vertebrates, identifying its origin and differential roles across species.

The paper investigates cell lineage relationships in zebrafish fin regeneration using single-cell RNA sequencing and lineage tracing, revealing compartmentalized osteoblast and blastema contributions to bone formation.

The paper shows that osteoblast death in zebrafish triggers macrophage recruitment via reactive oxygen species, which is modulated by glucocorticoids and essential for osteoblast repopulation of lesions.

This study identifies a feedback loop between Meis transcription factors and retinoic acid in regulating axial skeleton patterning in mice.
