The paper measures morphogen diffusion in zebrafish embryos and shows that diffusion slows due to receptor binding, with implications for gradient formation.

The paper identifies TGF-beta-regulated Keratin gene expression patterns during zebrafish tail regeneration and links them to epithelial cell migration and inhibition.

This study shows that BMP signaling reduces cell adhesion to promote mesenchymal cell migration during fin fold development in zebrafish.

This study identifies a novel signaling pathway involving serine protease activity and the protease-activated receptor Par2a that regulates calcium waves during zebrafish egg activation and blastomere cleavage.

This study develops a zebrafish injury model to study heterotopic ossification, identifies differentially regulated genes, and shows that Kcnk5b and Il11ra influence bone formation after injury.

This study shows aerobic glycolysis is essential for zebrafish larval wound closure and tail regeneration, with lactate levels increasing rapidly after injury and being inhibited by glycolysis blockers.

The paper shows that Cd9b and Cxcl12a/Cxcr4b work together to control collective cell migration in zebrafish posterior lateral line primordium.

This study uses single-cell transcriptomics to show zebrafish pigment cells develop directly from broadly multipotent progenitors, challenging traditional fate restriction models.

The paper identifies a hypomorphic MMP14 mutation in Winchester syndrome and shows its catalytic activity determines disease severity using in vitro and zebrafish models.
