Zebrafish Xenograft: An Evolutionary Experiment in Tumour Biology
Though the cancer research community has used mouse xenografts for decades more than zebrafish xenografts, zebrafish have much to offer: they are cheap, easy to work with, and the embryonic model is relatively easy to use in high-throughput assays. Zebrafish can be imaged live, allowing us to observe cellular and molecular processes in vivo in real time. Opponents dismiss the zebrafish model du...
متن کاملMedaka and zebrafish, an evolutionary twin study
Comparison of two related species is one of the most successful approaches to decipher general genetic principles in eukaryotes. This is best illustrated in yeast, where the model systems Saccharomyyces. cervisiae and Schizosaccharomyces. pombe have been examined. Powerful forward genetics in both species, species-specific differences in biological features and the phylogenetic distance between...
متن کاملTHE YEAR IN EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY 2009 An Extended Synthesis for Evolutionary Biology
Evolutionary theory is undergoing an intense period of discussion and reevaluation. This, contrary to the misleading claims of creationists and other pseudoscientists, is no harbinger of a crisis but rather the opposite: the field is expanding dramatically in terms of both empirical discoveries and new ideas. In this essay I briefly trace the conceptual history of evolutionary theory from Darwi...

Now, we will show you a new book enPDFd introduction to computational biology an evolutionary approach that can be a new way ...
متن کاملComputational Cancer Biology: An Evolutionary Perspective
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and represents one of the biggest biomedical research challenges of our time. Tumor progression is caused by somatic evolution of cell populations. Cancer cells expand because of the accumulation of selectively advantageous mutations, and expanding clones give rise to new cell subpopulations with increasingly higher somatic fitness (Fig 1). In the 19...
