Zebrafish Embryo Xenograft and Metastasis Assay

[Abstract]  Xenograft models, and in particular the mouse xenograft model, where human cancer cells are transplanted into immunocompromised mice, have been used extensively in cancer studies. Although these models have contributed enormously to our understanding of cancer biology, the zebrafish xenograft model offers several advantages over the mouse model. Zebrafish embryos can be easily cultured in large quantities, are small and easy to handle, making it possible to use a high number of embryos for each experimental condition. Young embryos lack an efficient immune system. Therefore the injected cancer cells are not rejected, and the formation of primary tumors and micrometastases is rapid. Transparency of the embryos enables imaging of primary tumors and metastases in an intact and living embryo. ... [摘要]  异种移植模型,特别是小鼠异种移植模型,其中人癌细胞被移植到免疫受损小鼠中,已广泛用于癌症研究。尽管这些模型对我们对癌症生物学的理解做出了巨大贡献,但斑马鱼异种移植模型与鼠标模型相比具有多种优势。斑马鱼胚胎可以很容易地大量培养,体积小且易于处理,因此可以在每种实验条件下使用大量胚胎。年轻的胚胎缺乏有效的免疫系统。因此,注射的癌细胞不被排斥,并且原发性肿瘤和微转移的形成是快速的。胚胎的透明度使得能够在完整和活的胚胎中对原发性肿瘤和转移瘤进行成像。在这里,我们描述了一种方法,其中表达GFP的肿瘤细胞被注射到斑马鱼胚胎的心包空间。在注射后4天,对胚胎成像并分析原发性肿瘤和远端微转移的形成。

【背景】 斑马鱼( Danio rerio )是一种小型淡水鱼,不仅在发育生物学中,而且在生物医学中越来越受欢迎。快速发展的领域之一是使用斑马鱼作为癌症生物学研究的模型。斑马鱼高效可靠地交配,可以产生大量小,透明,外部发育的后代,可以在例如,多孔板中轻松培养(White et al。 >,2013)。有趣的是,人类肿瘤细胞可以植入斑马鱼胚胎中,许多异种移植物能够通过在胚胎中生长,侵入和转移来忠实地重演它们的恶性行为(Lee et al。,2005; Nicoli et al。,2007; Chapman et ...

Various Modes of Spinal Cord Injury to Study Regeneration in Adult Zebrafish

[Abstract]  Spinal cord injury (SCI) in mammals leads to failure of both sensory and motor functions, due to lack of axonal regrowth below the level of injury as well as inability to replace lost neural cells and to stimulate neurogenesis. In contrast, fish and amphibians are capable of regenerating a variety of their organs like limb/fin, jaw, heart and various parts of the central nervous system (CNS). Zebrafish embryo and adult has become a very popular model to study developmental biology, cell biology and regeneration for various reasons. Adult zebrafish, one of the most important vertebrate models to study regeneration, can regenerate many of their body parts like fin, jaw, heart and CNS. In the present article we provide information on how to inflict different injury modalities in adult fish ... [摘要]  哺乳动物的脊髓损伤(SCI)导致感觉和运动功能的失败,这是由于缺乏低于损伤水平的轴突再生以及不能代替失去的神经细胞和刺激神经发生。相比之下,鱼和两栖动物能够再生各种器官,如肢体/鳍,下巴,心脏和中枢神经系统(CNS)的各个部分。斑马鱼胚胎和成人已经成为一个非常受欢迎的模型,研究发育生物学,细胞生物学和再生由于各种原因。成年斑马鱼是研究再生的最重要的脊椎动物模型之一,可以再生许多身体部位,如鳍,下巴,心脏和CNS。在本文中,我们提供如何在成年鱼脊髓造成不同的损伤方式的信息。目前,哺乳动物SCI的重点是使用挤压和挫伤损伤。为了产生与哺乳动物损伤模式相当的实体,我们已经在成年斑马鱼中引入了粉碎模型以及完全横断损伤,其也被认为是研究轴突再生的有价值的模型。在这里,我们提供高度可重复的手术程序的完整描述,包括一些有代表性的结果。此协议已经从我们以前的出版物, viz 改编。简而言之,我们描述了两种不同的损伤模式,挤压和完全横切,并证实了造成的结果
