This study investigates the role of chrna3 in alcohol response using zebrafish, finding that chrna3 mutants show increased alcohol tolerance and altered behavior.

This study shows that chrna5 mutations in zebrafish increase preference for nicotine and alcohol and alter behavior and physiology related to substance dependence.

This study shows that oxytocin receptors influence the development and maintenance of social behavior in zebrafish, with effects varying by age and social context.

The paper develops a zebrafish assay to study alcohol preference, finding a biphasic response where low alcohol concentrations are attractive and high concentrations are avoided.

This study uses optogenetic Amyloid-β to distinguish between metabolic and physical damage in Alzheimer's disease, showing that oligomerization causes severe tissue loss and that Li+ treatment reduces lifespan deficits.

The paper identifies a thalamic nucleus that mediates habenula responses to changes in illumination using calcium imaging and optogenetics in zebrafish.
