Zebrafish assays for drug toxicity screening
Abstract
Zebrafish are vertebrate organisms that are of growing interest for preclinical drug discovery applications. Zebrafish embryos develop most of the major organ systems present in mammals, including the cardiovascular, nervous and digestive systems, in < 1 week. Additional characteristics that make them advantageous for compound screening are their small size, transparency and ability to absorb compounds through the water. Furthermore, gene function analysis with antisense technology is now routine procedure. Thus, it is relatively simple to assess whether compounds or gene knockdowns cause toxic effects in zebrafish. Assays are being developed to exploit the unique characteristics of zebrafish for pharmacological toxicology. This review discusses assays that may be used to assess in vivo toxicity and provides examples of compounds known to be toxic to humans that have been demonstrated to function similarly in zebrafish.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
