Presently, nanotechnology is a multi-trillion dollar business sector that covers a wide range
of industries, such as medicine, electronics and chemistry. In the current era, the commercial …

Nanoparticles are increasingly being developed for in vivo use, from targeted drug delivery
to diagnostics, where they have enormous potential, while they are also being used for a …

Using zebrafish embryos and larvae, we examined the temporal patterns of cortisol and
expression of genes involved in corticosteroid synthesis and signaling. Embryonic cortisol …

The interactions of nanomedicines with biological environments is heavily influenced by
their physicochemical properties. Formulation design and optimization are therefore key …

In last few years, the use of zebrafish (Danio rerio) in scientific research is growing very
rapidly. Initially, it was a popular as a model of vertebrate development because zebrafish …

Methylmercury (MeHg) is a ubiquitous environmental neurotoxicant, with human exposures
predominantly resulting from fish consumption. Developmental exposure of zebrafish to …

Background Aggression is a near-universal behaviour with substantial influence on and
implications for human and animal social systems. The neurophysiological basis of …

This study evaluated the acute developmental toxicity of six priority phthalic acid esters
(PAEs) including dimethyl phthalate (DMP), diethyl phthalate (DEP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP) …

Larval zebrafish offers a good model to approach brain disease mechanisms, as structural
abnormalities of their small brains can be correlated to quantifiable behavior. In this study …

Background Aquaporins are integral membrane proteins that facilitate the transport of water
and small solutes across cell membranes. These proteins are vital for maintaining water …
