Remarkably, when human ear enhancers were introduced into zebrafish, they activated specifically in the gills. Conversely, ...

Transcriptomic analysis of the zebrafish inner ear points to growth hormone mediated regeneration following acoustic trauma. BMC Neuroscience , 2011; 12: 88 DOI: 10.1186/1471-2202-12-88 Cite This ...

Zebrafish May Help Solve Ringing In War Vets' Ears Date: May 2, 2008 Source: Northwestern University Summary: Ever since Ernest Moore's ears began ringing with tinnitus, he has been researching a ...

Strikingly, the human ear cartilage enhancers only drove the activity of green fluorescent protein in the zebrafish gills, suggesting that whatever is controlling gene expression is very similar ...

Ever since Ernest Moore's ears began ringing with tinnitus, he has been researching a cure. There's a lot riding on his work. Tinnitus is the top disability of soldiers returning from Iraq and ...

Zebrafish 'inner ear' development wins science video prize ...

Each single hair bundle within the live zebrafish ear contains fascin 2b fused with green fluorescent protein. In this time coarse, the fascin 2b molecules migrate to other regions of the bundle ...

Gene-editing experiments indicate that cartilage in fish gills migrated into the ear canal millions of years ago during the course of our evolution.Going even further back, our outer ears may have ...

Dr. Michael Smith commented, "Injecting growth hormone into zebrafish stimulated cell proliferation in their inner ears, especially cells of the utricle, a vestibular organ involved in balance.
