The evolutionary conservation of genomic, biochemical and developmental features between zebrafish and humans is gradually coming into focus with the end result that the zebrafish embryo model has emerged as a powerful tool for uncovering the effects of environmental exposures on a multitude of biological processes with direct relevance to human health. In this review, we highlight advances in automation, high-throughput (HT) screening, and analysis that leverage the power of the zebrafish embryo model for unparalleled advances in our understanding of how chemicals in our environment affect our health and wellbeing.
斑马鱼与人类在基因组、生物化学和发育特征方面的进化保守性正逐渐成为焦点,最终结果是斑马鱼胚胎模型已成为一种强大的工具,用于揭示环境暴露对众多与人类健康直接相关的生物过程的影响。在本综述中,我们重点介绍了自动化、高通量(HT)筛选和分析方面的进展,这些进展利用斑马鱼胚胎模型的强大功能,在我们理解环境中的化学物质如何影响我们的健康和福祉方面取得了无与伦比的进展。
