Innate immunity is a semi‐specific and widely distributed form of immunity, which represents
the first line of defence against pathogens. This type of immunity is critical to maintain …

The innate system's recognition of non-self and danger signals is mediated by a limited
number of germ-line encoded pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) that recognize pathogen …

The innate immune system constitutes an efficient defense against invading microbial
pathogens. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) eventually alert vertebrates about the presence of …

The zebrafish (Danio rerio) has been extensively used in biomedical research as a model to
study vertebrate development and hematopoiesis and recently, it has been adopted into …

The increasing economic importance of fish parasitoses for aquaculture and fisheries has
enhanced the interest in the defence mechanisms against these infections. Both innate and …

Overcrowding conditions and temperatures shifts regularly manifest in large-scale infections
of farmed fish, resulting in economic losses for the global aquaculture industries. Increased …

Bacterial enteritis is a widespread inflammatory disease in most farmed fish, yet its
pathogenesis is largely unknown, primarily because of the paucity of reproducible …

The zebrafish holds much promise as a high-throughput drug screening model for immune-
related diseases, including inflammatory and infectious diseases and cancer. This is due to …

The zebrafish has emerged as a powerful new vertebrate model of human disease. Initially
prominent in developmental biology, the zebrafish has now been adopted into varied fields …

The zebrafish, Danio rerio, has come to the forefront of biomedical research as a powerful
model for the study of development, neurobiology, and genetics of humans. In recent years …
