Zebrafish and Xenopus have become popular model organisms for studying vertebrate
development of many organ systems, including the heart. However, it is not clear whether …

Zebrafish (Danio rerio) are widely used as vertebrate model in developmental genetics and
functional genomics as well as in cardiac structure-function studies. The zebrafish heart has …

Zebrafish has become a popular model for the study of cardiovascular development. We
performed morphologic analysis on 3 months postfertilization zebrafish hearts (n≥ 20) with …

The zebrafish (Danio rerio) has become a popular model for human cardiac diseases and
pharmacology including cardiac arrhythmias and its electrophysiological basis. Notably, the …

The zebrafish has recently emerged as an excellent model for studies of heart development
and regeneration. The physiology of the zebrafish heart has been suggested to resemble …

Zebrafish heart has evolved as an intensely studied model for cardiac development,
physiology and pathophysiology. A particular advantage is its morphological and functional …

The cardiac pacemaker sets the heart's primary rate, with pacemaker discharge controlled
by the autonomic nervous system through intracardiac ganglia. A fundamental issue in …

The specialized conduction tissue network mediates coordinated propagation of electrical
activity through the adult vertebrate heart. Following activation of the atria, the activation …

In the mature heart, impulse propagation through the His-Purkinje system (HPS) is required
for efficient ventricular contraction in an apex-to-base direction. However, the embryonic …

The combination of optical clarity and large scale of mutants makes the zebrafish vital for
developmental biologists. However, there is no comprehensive reference of morphology …
