Establishing a new animal model for muscle regeneration studies
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
Skeletal muscle injuries are one of the most common problems in the worldwide which impose a substantial financial burden to the health care system. Accordingly, it widely accepted that muscle regeneration is a promising approach that can be used to treat muscle injury patients. However, the underlying mechanisms of muscle regeneration have yet to be elucidated. The muscle structure and muscle-related gene expression are highly conserved between human and zebrafish. Therefore, the zebrafish can be considered as an ideal animal model in muscle regeneration studies. In this study, Tol2 transposase was applied to produce Tg(mylpfa: cfp-nfsB) zebrafish model that express a fusion protein composed of cyan fluorescent protein (CFP) and nitrorudactase (NTR) under control of mylpfa promoter. The results showed that MTZ (Metronidazole) treatment of Tg(mylpfa:cfp-nfsB) zebrafish larvae can lead to muscle injury by selective ablation of muscle cells. And also, results confirmed the muscle regeneration ability of the transgenic larvae after withdrawal of Mtz for three days. Overall, The results of this study suggest that the Tg(mylpfa:cfp-nfsB) zebrafish model can be used in muscle regeneration study in order to elucidate the mechanisms of this process.

Hydrobia ulvae (Gastropoda: Prosobranchia): a new model for regeneration studies.
Within 2 weeks of decapitation, Hydrobia ulvae was able to regenerate new head structures including buccal ganglia. It was also capable of regenerating propodial ganglia after anterior foot amputation. The functional regeneration of the buccal ganglia was demonstrated by behavioural observations and by electrophysiological experiments. The presence of the oesophagus was shown to be important fo...
متن کاملEchinoderms: potential model systems for studies on muscle regeneration.
Organisms of the phylum Echinodermata show some of the most impressive regenerative feats within the animal kingdom. Following injury or self-induced autotomy, species in this phylum can regenerate most tissues and organs, being the regeneration of the muscular systems one of the best studied. Even though echinoderms are closely related to chordates, they are little known in the biomedical fiel...

15 صفحه اولA new animal model for Ménière's disease.
CONCLUSION A new murine model for the study of Ménière's disease has been developed by treatment with both lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and aldosterone. Induction of vestibular dysfunction in the hydropic animal model may entail additional stress such as reduced inner ear blood flow, and sudden acute changes in endolymph volume and/or pressure. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to develop a...
