Vitamin E Protects Developmental Gene Expression and Metabolic Networks in Zebrafish Embryos

Creator:

Head, Brian A.

Abstract:

Vitamin E (VitE) is necessary for vertebrate embryonic development. VitE prevents lipid peroxidation (LPO), which requires detoxification by cellular antioxidant systems subsequently involving reducing power derived from energy metabolism. Thus, VitE protects metabolic networks in the developing embryo and the integrated gene expression networks compensating for and impaired by LPO-induced...

Analysis of Cancer Progression by Establishing Quantitative Assessments of Zebrafish Xenografts

Creator:

Gamble, John T.

Abstract:

The goal of this dissertation was to improve our abilities in acquiring critical in vivo data by establishing embryo-larva zebrafish as an exemplary model to quantitatively evaluate cancer progression. The living environment that encompasses a tumor has a significant effect on how cancer develops, grows and metastasizes. In order to...
